Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

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

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

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

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

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

Donald Trump, welcome to your everything, everywhere, all at once.

This blog will pay for itself.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

Never forget that he train is barreling down on Trump, even as he dances on the tracks.

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

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Chutkan laughs. Lauro sits back down.

Biden: Oh no. We’ve upset Big Pharma again.

When we show up, we win.

The words do not have to be perfect.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

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

An almost top 10,000 blog!

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

This post is in: Politics, Democratic Stupidity

While Obama has, his campaign has not: Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign has prepared a detailed memo listing various instances in which it perceived Sen. Hillary Clinton’s campaign to have deliberately played the race card in the Democratic primary. [See the full memo here.] The memo, which was obtained by the Huffington Post and has …

This post is in: Humorous, Media, Politics

That Obama, no wonder he has everyone eating out of his hands. Why, look at this partial list of the things he has “transcended”: 1.) Political and Ideological Divisions– “Senator Obama has shown that he can transcend the ideological and partisan divisions that have paralyzed our politics for far too long and inspire people to …

This post is in: Open Threads, Talk About Whatever You Want

This is an open thread, so talk about whatever you want, but I thought this story was too good not to share. A few excerpts from a charming L.A.Times article about a very special artist. Postal Service for the Dead, started by artist Janelle Ketcher, provides the living with a way to physically send letters to those …
