Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

In my day, never was longer.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

Prediction: the gop will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

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

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

Donald Trump found guilty as fuck – May 30, 2024!

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

Their shamelessness is their super power.

IF anyone was ever curious

IF anyone was ever curious why the terrorists did not take us seriously, this is a partial reason:

SALT LAKE CITY — An airline passenger who allegedly got up to go the bathroom less than 30 minutes before landing became the first person arrested under a new federal flight regulation adopted for the Olympics.

Richard Bizarro, 59, could get up to 20 years in prison on charges of interfering with a flight crew.

We don’t deserve to be taken seriously. How putting middle-aged men in jail for using the bathroom fights terrorism is beyond me.

*** Update ***

Ken Goldstein has already come up with a defense for Mr. Bizarro.
