Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

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

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

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

Nothing says ‘pro-life’ like letting children go hungry.

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

You cannot love your country only when you win.

Dear elected officials: Trump is temporary, dishonor is forever.

Cancel the cowardly Times and Post and set up an equivalent monthly donation to ProPublica.

The revolution will be supervised.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

We need to vote them all out and restore sane Democratic government.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

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

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Hey hey, RFK, how many kids did you kill today?

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

“Alexa, change the president.”

“In this country American means white. everybody else has to hyphenate.”

My, my my… I thought

My, my my… I thought this would be much more difficult. Take that Glenn. Actually, Glenn, Mr. Sullivan, and a variety of other people who I have been following daily are the reason I am starting this little project. I am not sure what I intend to accomplish with this, but I have covered any possible failure by refusing to set any goals. “Aim High,” I always say.
I think this might be a healthy place for me to air my pet grievances and bizarre political viewpoints- at least it will be healthier than the local pub, where I am in striking distance of the people I am offending. At any rate, I read a good deal of news sites, and I get irritated with all of the stupid and irrational things that get stated in our media without ANYONE challenging them. Fortunately, there are a lot of good folks out there debunking the garbage (I will get links I like up once I figger this all out), and I intend to help them. In fact, I think this stream of consciousness description has helped me to come up with the full title for the the corner. “The Curmudgeon’s Corner- Helping People Make fools of Themselves.”

Since nothing in my life

Since nothing in my life is easy, I doubt this will work the first time I try it. If it does work, I will be moderately elated.
