Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

Stay strong, because they are weak.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

These are not very smart people, and things got out of hand.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

Republicans in disarray!

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

This really is a full service blog.

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

Marge, god is saying you’re stupid.

Mediocre white men think RFK Jr’s pathetic midlife crisis is inspirational. The bar is set so low for them, it’s subterranean.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Gimme A Break

Alex Knapp rightly skewers Sam brownback for his anti-cloning legislation and this ludicrous op-ed in the National Review.

You remember the Raelians– the cultists who are a step above Heaven’s Gate crowd– the morons who claimed to have cloned a baby- Brownback is terrified of them, and he thinks you should be too:

Let’s be clear, the Raelians and those interested in human-cloning research seek to create human life through a process of human cloning that a vast majority of Americans clearly oppose. The threat presented to us by the Raelians is one that should refocus our attention on the immediacy of passing a permanent and comprehensive ban on all human cloning.

The only threat the Raelians present to anyone is to their own credibility.
