Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

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

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Presidents are not kings, and Plaintiff is not President.

I really should read my own blog.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Republicans in disarray!

Usually wrong but never in doubt

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Intolerable Behavior

by John Cole|  June 17, 20042:22 am| 13 Comments

This post is in: General Stupidity

I spent the whole day formatting my computer- reinstalling everything, hunting down all the drivers, transferring from back-up to the computer- in short, rebuilding the software side from scratch. We all know how pleasant that is and what kind of mood I am in. Then, I come here, and I find some jackass has taken …

Captions R Us

This post is in: Humorous

What if my liberal blogroll wrote the captions for newspapers: Long lines of liberals wait up to five hours to view the casket of the man who killed Conservatism– Matt Yglesias After standing line for hours, onlookers are allowed three minutes to jeer at the corpse of the Least Popular President of the Modern Era– …

Last On Clinton and the Funeral

by John Cole|  June 8, 20045:12 pm| 78 Comments

This post is in: General Stupidity

Alright, Ezra, DU denizens, and Clinton supporters: Why SHOULD Clinton speak at Reagan’s funeral? Bear in mind, the only reason a Democrat spoke at Nixon’s funeral was because clinton was the current President, I believe Nixon was the only Republican (he was the sitting President) to speak at LBJ’s state funeral, and no Republicans gave …

OH, Boo-HOO, The Spotlight Won’t Be On You

by John Cole|  June 8, 20041:55 pm| 50 Comments

This post is in: General Stupidity

This made me giggle: Former President Bill Clinton has privately expressed anger he has apparently been left off the speakers list of Friday’s Reagan State Funeral, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. “President Clinton really held out all hope the funeral would be a nonpartisan event, like Nixon’s was,” a top Clinton source said on Tuesday …

Hunh?

by John Cole|  June 7, 20044:31 pm| 15 Comments

This post is in: Democratic Stupidity

Someone please try to make some sense out of this bloody mess of a post: I admit to having little to add on Ronald Reagan. I’ve had a magnificently cynical fear that his death would come in an election year and lead to conservative resurgence — or at least unification — fueled by his spectral …

The Lies Just Keep Continuing

by John Cole|  April 27, 20046:56 pm| 11 Comments

This post is in: Open Threads

Really, now. The Democrats are now such spinmeisters and liars they are sucked into their own deceit: Like many people, I’m puzzled that the Bushies have decided to unleash the attack dogs on the issue of John Kerry’s Vietnam service. It’s possible, of course, that they know something I don’t and have some devious trick …

Here We Go Again

by John Cole|  April 27, 20045:40 pm| Leave a Comment

This post is in: Politics

It has been about a month, so it is time for another Democrat blogger to take another stab at the “Really we are moderates but Bush is so extreme that we just sound like hostile lunatics.” This time, it is Ezra’s turn: The problem is, moderate no longer relies on your politics, it rests on …
