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.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

We still have time to mess this up!

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

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

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

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

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

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

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

When you’re a Republican, they let you do it.

Let me file that under fuck it.

Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

When I was faster i was always behind.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

This post is in: Election 2008, Did You Know John McCain Was A POW?

Still 29%. [F]rom Gallup: Among Democratic women — including those who may be disappointed that Hillary Clinton did not win the Democratic nomination — 9% say Palin makes them more likely to support McCain, 15% less likely. From Rasmussen: Some 38% of men said they were more likely to vote for McCain now, but only …

Disparity

This post is in: Domestic Politics

In a world where every story arises de novo and completely context-free, this might raise an eyebrow. A federal investigation of Democratic Party leaders in Cuyahoga County could pose problems for Barack Obama’s campaign in Ohio, party insiders and political analysts say.
