Time for Castle to Break out the Next Blank Check for Iraq
The Washington Post reports that the Bush administration wants more money for the Iraq war and is planning on asking Congress for up to $50 billion next month. The thinking seems to be that lawmakers won’t be able to say no after Gen. David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker ask for more time to build […]
Tom Carper needs to stop campaigning with Mike Castle. Period
That is just basic common sense. And it is only step one of a twelve step program I am putting Tom Carper on.
Do you buy antibacterial soap?
Personally, it bothers me when I see people using the stuff. It makes no sense and is only creating superbugs that will be harder to kill years from now. This is a nice little nugget about the soaps. Antibacterial soaps that contain triclosan as the main active ingredient are no better at preventing infections than […]
wooohooo, trickle down economics is working!!!
See!!! this is how it is supposed to work Top executives at major U.S. businesses last year made as much money in one day of work on the job as the average worker made over the entire year, according to a report released on Wednesday.
Rewarding Good Journalists
Roger – Thanks for having the nerve to ask Castle about Iraq. So many members of our fourth estate have been cowed into zombie like submission by Castle over the years that they will not ask questions unrelated to whatever empty PR stunt Castle is up to when he works up the nerve to leave […]
Oh, This is Why Mike Castle Won’t Meet His Constituents…
I had to bump this back up because we have to just let the fact that the NJ ran this giant picture on the front page of the local section. That is a huge breakthrough. Is it possible that the Brahmins of Basin Rd. are starting to get it? The entire “I love Bush” sash […]
Larry Craig vs. Mike Castle
You have to give Mike Castle some credit. Republicans who seem kind of faggy effeminent often go over the top when it comes to hating on the gays. It’s like they feel compelled to “prove” that they aren’t gay by talking tough. Castle has never played that game.
Denn tears it up at Sussex Jamboree
Matt Marshall’s Coverage of The SCJ kicks Celia’s ass!! h/t to Mike at DWA for steering me toward Mr. Mat Marshall and his coverage of the SC Democratic Jamboree thingy. I had heard Matt Denn‘s speach was awesome, which Mat confirms. As for John Carney you’ll have ot click over to mat’s blog to read […]
Bravo Roger Hillis. You are my new best friend for asking Mike Castle a real question.
While most of our lap-dog press is very happy to transcribe whatever Mike Castle tells them, Roger Hillis of Delmarvanow.com actually showed some of the balls that were once associated with professional journalists. Hold onto your hat… He asked Castle about Iraq. The story starts out innocently enough. REHOBOTH BEACH – The sand and surf […]
Holy Crap! That’s a Lot of Guns
A new study just released suggests that the US is the most heavily armed populace in the world, clocking in at 90 firearms per 100 people. Let that sink in. Shouldn’t our crime rate be at zero under the theory that more guns makes criminals less likely to attack (since they would be inviting certain […]
Delaware’s Blue Laws Still Suck
So I was surfing around and I went to one of my favorite little consumerism-gone-wild sites woot.com. I won’t bore you with the details of Woot, but it is quirky and fun online shopping. They also have a Wine section of the website called wine.woot.com. Basically you can get some different wines at a pretty […]
I was wrong. R’s will pick Flipp Romney this time.
Hey, at least I admit when I’m wrong. But who could have suspected Grampa Fred would be soooooo horrible? Now it seems he is sucking so much he might not even run. That leaves Rudy “9/11 baby, Yeah!” Guliani who has topped out at 35% and Romney in the running. As McCain, Thompson and the […]
Go figure this one
I really need to get into the insurance business. Now, apparently getting into the risk business is too risky for them and they want the government to cover their asses some more. I can’t blame them, it is hard to build a good profit model when you have to pay claims and all the other nonsense […]
