Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Fear and negativity are contagious, but so is courage!

Come on, man.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

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

The press swings at every pitch, we don’t have to.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

We do not need to pander to people who do not like what we stand for.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

“Just close your eyes and kiss the girl and go where the tilt-a-whirl takes you.” ~OzarkHillbilly

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

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

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

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

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

Thanks to the folks at Ye Olde Blogge for the plug, and thanks for the kind words from the folks at Protein Wisdom, where the critical meet the creative (and where morons are regularly handed their hindquarters on a platter).

Links updated, as well.
