Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Be a wild strawberry.

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

Finding joy where we can, and muddling through where we can’t.

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

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

I’m more christian than these people and i’m an atheist.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

The revolution will be supervised.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Reality always gets a vote in the end.

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

If you cannot answer whether trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office.

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

    In the bottom left hand corner, I saw a link to this.

    Democrats Win
    What Next?
    By Tom Daschle

    What in the flying fuck does Tom Daschle know about Democrats winning?

    I suspect the “thinking” went a bit like this:

    We hate working so we’ll make the Democrats work because they must hate doing the jobs they were elected to do just as much as we do. And because it took us forever to get anything done it will take them…two times forever to get anything done and we can tell everyone how lazy they are!

    What. Ever, I’m looking forward to the squeals when a bunch of fat piggies don’t get their pork.

    What it does mean is that every whine and rant by Republicans about the hoped for and expected “bi-partisanship” of the incoming Democratic party is confirmed absolute bullshit.
