Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Shocking, but not surprising

I’m going back to the respite thread.

There’s some extremely good trouble headed their way.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

I really should read my own blog.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Shelter in place is one thing. Shelter in pants is quite another.

We can agree to disagree, but i’m right.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

We still have time to mess this up!

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

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Reality always wins in the end.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

The house always wins.

Where tasty lettuce and good mustard aren’t elitist.

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

Women: they get shit done

The math demands it!

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

Just a few bad apples.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Palin Reads All Newspapers

by Michael Demmons|  October 1, 20087:28 am| 180 Comments

This post is in: Lies, Damned Lies, and Sarah Palin

More from the trainwreck that was the Katie Couric interview:

COURIC: And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this — to stay informed and to understand the world?

PALIN: I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media —

COURIC: But what ones specifically? I’m curious.

PALIN: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years.

COURIC: Can you name any of them?

PALIN: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news.

You can watch it here. Fingernails on a chalkboard.
