Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Presidents are not kings, and Plaintiff is not President.

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

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

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

Tick tock motherfuckers!

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

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

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

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

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

I did not have telepathic declassification on my 2022 bingo card.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

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

Their freedom requires your slavery.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

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

Oops

by John Cole|  March 19, 20044:58 pm| 16 Comments

This post is in: Democratic Stupidity

I guess Ezra is right. Foreign leaders do want Kerry to win: The United States requested that Malaysia halt a shipment of suspected nuclear parts in the 1990s, years before a company here was linked to a network supplying Libya, Iran and North Korea with weapons-making technology, Malaysia’s former leader said Thursday. In an interview, …

Let The Spin Begin

This post is in: Democratic Stupidity

Ezra, in a post titled “Substance-Free Attack Dogs” claims that I am over-reaching when I note that Kerry is out of line with his ‘foreign leaders’ comments. Notwithstanding the irony of being called an attack dog by none other than the First Violinist of the I Hate Bush orchestra, Ezra, while on the same sheet …

Amen, Brother

This post is in: Politics

Regarding the non-controversies ginned up by the media regarding Justices Scalia and GInsburg, I don’t think I could have said it any better than the Calpundit. In fact, I am willing to be I wouldn’t have, and ten people would have flamed me in the comments for trying. Such is life. Ezra has some fair …

Creating Their Own Worst Enemy

by John Cole|  March 9, 20047:07 pm| 2 Comments

This post is in: Democratic Stupidity

Most mature political parties would have become slightly introverted after the recent succession of electoral defeats, recalibrated their message, analyzed, and then attempted to mainstream their message and attract voters to their position. The Democrats, while many things, are not very mature. Instead, as we all know, they decided to lurch leftward, electing Pelosi as …

THe Bible and Homosexuality

This post is in: Domestic Politics

Ezra Klein has up a long post about the bible and homosexuality. As I am no biblical scholar (I might even turn into a pillar of salt if I went into achurch), I have no comments. Go check it out though.

Stupidest Angle Ever

by John Cole|  February 24, 20045:45 pm| 5 Comments

This post is in: Movies

There has been a lot of bloviating about Gibson’s Passion movie, but I just heard the dumbest angle ever on MSNBC. Lester Holt asked: “Should Jesus have been played by a white man?” WHO… GIVES… A… SHIT… If I had my way, this is who I would like to have seen play Jesus: The look …

The New Canard

by John Cole|  February 23, 20044:22 pm| 6 Comments

This post is in: Democratic Stupidity

From now on, when you hear a Democrat claiming someone is questioning their patriotism, realize they are hiding something. I have no other way to interpret Ezra’s utter inability to understand the distinction between questioning someone’s military service and patriotism and their voting record on defense and intelligence issues. John Kerry is, as I have …
