Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

Also, are you sure you want people to rate your comments?

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Republicans do not trust women.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

Not all heroes wear capes.

    Fish-slapping dance FTW. I’ve been cracking up over that for decades.

    I would add this to your list. It’s even topical, re: weblog awards.

    I’ve been reading way too much Wonkette recently, what with the PUMAtard war and all, the end. Also.

    FishSlapDance is one of the stupid-funniest python quickies EVER! I giggle just thinking about it sometimes.

    Curly’s yelp when Moe smacks him is always great too.

    The way the announcers gave head to Tim Tebow last night was a slap in the face to all the other saints — and I’m a Gator. Heard on Fox sports radio today: "If Tebow comes back and wins 3 national championships and 2 Heismans, should he be considerd one of the greatest ever?". Jeebus. Enough already.

    LMFAO! You go dougJ, Gandhi was mocked too, but, in the end, got the last Slap In the Face and defeated an empire.

    Here’s an epic slap video — a camp classic. The white panties make it even funnier.

    Michael Palin is still the funniest Palin.

    Ah, I always take an excuse to bring back this charming video:

    Michael Palin for President

    Ye gods, I loved the campaign season. If it wasn’t for the whole fate-of-the-world-hangs-by-a-thread thing, I could have had it go on forever.

    I liked Flash of Genius; well worth the rental.

    Friday night pondering: Does one need a slapstick to hit a slapshot in hockey?

    Spoof movies don’t even begin to compare to "Airplane" anymore. Leslie Neilsen taking a risk and doing a comedy like that before he became his own cliche.

    Speaking of…one of the most cringe-worthy moments in my life happened while I was watching the Debbie Reynolds’ flick "Tammy and the Bachelor". The male lead is standing in the rain in one scene, shirt open. I mentioned to my college roommate that the guy was pretty hot. She turned to me and said, "That’s the guy from the Naked Gun movies."

    Yes, and no. unless your Dick "Tripod" Cheney. Then everything is possible.

    Now can we have several videos of people being thrown under buses?

    @DougJ:

    I think that’s illegal, except for certain persons in Alabama.

    @Comrade Stuck: That’s illegal, too. Even in Alabama, you can’t just *throw* people under a bus, you need to use a fire hose.

    Er, how about people accidentally throwing themselves under buses?

    Jesus under the bus

    Nip/Tuck lady under the bus

    Lost dude under the bus

    Girl who cheated death under the bus

    Haven’t seen Flash of Genius but watched Bottle Shock on a flight recently. Wouldn’t recommend it. I would recommend that Alan Rickman fire his agent, though.
