Outrage in Milford (Update: The Signs are coming down)
Click through for a larger version
I saw this picture on Facebook, from a liberal friend downstate, who was sharing it via an original posting of the very nonliberal Dan Gaffney. It is nice to know that the outrage concerning this photo is bipartisan. And what is so outrageous about it, you ask?
Well, you can read what it says in English. In Spanish it says “You have to have a permit to play here or you will be arrested.”
So if you are a white English speaking “American,” you can play here at your own risk so long as you have a parent or guardian watching. If you are brown, if you dare play here without a permit we will arrest your immigrant ass. That is the fucking height of racism, and I will see to it that who ever is responsible for this sign will have their public careers ended immediately.
Sign Wars: Don Ayotte vs. Glen Urquhart (RT 1 North Lewes to Milford)
Ayotte wins on points. Font size points. He has far fewer signs, but you can read his name. Glen Urquhart tiny red font on a dark blue background are impossible to read at 55 mph. Ayotte’s fewer signs are impossible to miss.

Personal To Feckless Joe: Can’t you just shut up for one more week? Or, you know, maybe stop sending more weapons to Israel? Or both? A Garbage Truck Named Trump. Doubling down on the notion that lots of Americans are garbage while sitting in a garbage truck with ‘TRUMP’ emblazoned on it strikes me as […]

1. Meaningless Endorsements. We’re in Captain Obvious territory here: Any endorsements that take place after a primary has been resolved are meaningless. Or, in some cases, pathetic. Or perhaps you missed the e-mail that John Carney has now endorsed Sarah McBride. Yo, John, you endorsed Eugene Young. Everybody knows that you and Sarah get along […]

OK, so I’m a day late with this. What are you gonna do, cancel your subscription?? 1. Some Guy Named Eric Hansen Files To Run For US Senate As An R.

2023: The Good. The Bad. The Ridiculous.
As usual, the ‘Good List’ is much smaller than the other two. I can not so humbly state that this is the only list you’ll need to sum up Delaware in 2023. It’s long, but well worth your time, replete with generous links to the stories: THE GOOD: Jan. 18: Gov. Carney proposes a 9% […]
Tomorrow’s Special Election In RD 37: An Uninformed View From Upstate
My uninformed view. While R’s have traditionally done better in special elections than D’s, it’s pretty clear that the Democratic Party has the better ground game this time. Massive phone banks and grassroots activity. Special elections often are more about the parties than the candidates, and that could well be the case here. I honestly […]

Feckless Joe: Bibi, You Need To Dial It Back. Bibi: Kiss My Tucchus: Almost half of the munitions Israel has used in Gaza since the war began have been unguided bombs, a U.S. intelligence assessment has found, a ratio that some arms experts say helps explain the conflict’s enormous civilian death toll. The revelation comes […]

Northern Idaho: The Home Of Christian Nationalism? I’m jiggy wid it. They can have northern Idaho: North Idaho has long been known for its hyperlibertarians, apocalyptic “preppers” and white supremacist groups who have retreated to the region’s sweeping frozen lakes and wild forests to await the collapse of American society, when they’ll assert control over […]
Song of the Day 2/23: The Business, “Drinking and Driving”
Would-be politician Scott Walker, the guy who runs for office by setting up home-painted campaign signs along Delaware roads, has never come close to being elected, but his odd behavior makes it obvious that isn’t his goal. Like the guy who fell into a lens grinding machine, he’s making a spectacle of himself. He’s in […]
Defeat These Three Candidates For School Board
There will no doubt be others who join the fray before the filing deadline, which is Friday, March 4. In at least one race, there had better be. For now, these three will suffice. We have two ‘parental rights’ anti-vaxxers/maskers running in Milford: Ashlee Connell is running for an At-Large seat in Milford. If you […]
