Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

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

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Republicans would impeach Biden if he bit into a whole Kit Kat rather than breaking the sections apart.

The lights are all blinking red.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. don’t touch it.”

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you don’t.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

Russia bombs Ukraine’s maternity hospitals; Republicans in the House can’t sort out supporting Ukraine.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

Oh, Dear Lord, Three Things I Pray

by $8 blue check mistermix|  June 4, 20148:17 am| 149 Comments

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

Benen’s recounting of McCain’s flipping and flopping on the Bergdahl release is a thing to behold and worthy of a full read. Our former POW would-be President is all over the map on a daily basis. This behavior is similar to a dog being trained with an invisible fence. The hot dog on just the …

What He Said

This post is in: Military

Here’s an excellent rant from another vet who is just shocked at people being pissed we brought home a POW. Well worth the read. Also, at least the Brass remembers a thing or two: Rear Adm. John F. Kirby, the Pentagon spokesman, said that there was a larger matter at play: The American military does …

Oh Fer Fuck’s Sake

This post is in: Military

Sooner had a much more elegant post, and yes, there may be issues behind his disappearance that will be dealt with later, but the reason we rescued Sgt. Bergdahl is because that is what we do. It’s an unwritten code that you bring your men back. Period. Even the ones you may think were shitbirds. …

Every Time the Sun Comes Up, I’m In Trouble

by $8 blue check mistermix|  June 2, 20148:48 am| 180 Comments

This post is in: Open Threads

So let me get this straight. A young soldier who was clearly having a hard time with the most awful thing human beings do, war, should not be rescued because: (a) it’s not crystal clear how he was captured, or (b) he sent a few emails home questioning the war, or (c) the people we …

ABC US News | ABC International News Sounds like there’s going to be a nice homecoming celebration in Sgt.

The focus was both on what he …
