Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

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

The words do not have to be perfect.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

Let’s finish the job.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

People are complicated. Love is not.

No Justins, No Peace

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

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

Their freedom requires your slavery.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

“woke” is the new caravan.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

The Pulitzer Prize for drama

The Pulitzer Prize for drama was awarded to Suzan-Lori Parks for “Topdog/Underdog,” a play about the relationship of two brothers and their struggle with being African-American and male in the United States.

Yes, the trial of being male finally given the recognition it deserves. I doubt that is what the writer meant, though.

Brian Williams just let out the Media Trap for Bush:

“Bush has his prestige on the line now that he is sending Powell to he Mid-East,” stated Williams.

There is the trick. Bitch for months that Bush is not involved enough, then when he is involved enough to your liking, declare that anything short of the optimum outcome is a Bush failure. Charming.

I guess I might be a conservative after all. How else can I explain the visceral reaction I had when I heard that the Wall Street Journal was re-designing its layout- particularly without seeing the re-design? I don’t care if it is better- it is different, damnit.

Jonah tells it like it is, again:

My views regarding the European political and intellectual elite have gone from mere contempt to palpable disgust.

Even the glow of the synagogues burning on soil already well fertilized with the viscera of Jews is paled by the bonfire of hypocrisy now raging in capitals across Europe. Recall last December, when France’s ambassador to England, Daniel Bernard, referred to Israel as “that shi**y little country,” asking, “Why should the world be in danger of World War III because of those people?”
