Comment Rescue: Selander Asks…

“Why not call President of the Senate John Carney as well? Carney tells everybody all the time that he has the experience to get things done in the legislature. Why doesn’t he use this experience to actually get this voted on? The Senators who are holding this up are all on the leadership of his campaign committee.”

Leave a message for John Carney by calling:  (302) 577-8787

Seriously…Call Your State Senator To Support Wind Power!

Your calls yesterday worked!

They helped get The Delaware House of Representatives to vote in favor of offshore wind power by passing House Concurrent Resolution 38 by a vote of 25 to 11!!

Now it is onto the Senate where a small number of Senators are determined to block the will of the people who are overwhelmingly in favor of this clean, renewable, dependable off shore wind project.

That’s why it is important that you call your State Senator today to register your support for wind power.

If your Senator is a Democrat leave a message here: (302) 744-4286

If your Senator is a Republican leave a message here: (302) 744-4048

You’ll probably get voice mail, so politely leave a message saying that you don’t want a small group of State Senators to kill the Blue Water Wind Power Deal. You might add that the deal…

*has been approved by the a large margin in the house, and
*will bring high paying jobs to the state.

Email this post to three friends and let’s set a goal of getting 100 phone calls today.

Every call counts – 100 calls from voters can have a huge impact!

Update for our loyal readers: stealing an Idea from DWA. I posted a blog asking people to call their state senators over at Delawareonline it should be up on the front page. Please click the recommened button on the post to keep it on the front page of Delawareonline.com Thanks people! we can do this as a group!

NOW I HAVE REALLY HAD ENOUGH!

You can f’ with my gas prices.  You can even F with my beer prices.  Heck, I’ll let you mess around with my corn on the cob prices!

But from my cold dead hands will I continue to allow you to F with my blue crab prices!

Don’t expect a good deal on blue crabsPrices are always higher this time of year when the local supply is slim and crabs must be trucked or flown to the area.

And it could get even worse.

Over in the Chesapeake, regulators in both Maryland and Virginia are looking at harvest cuts to address overfishing of blue crab stocks.

The American People are stupid if

They believed anything Bush said yesterday about “troop withdrawals” and Iraq not being an “endless war”

Once again the only person calling the schmuck out is Olbermann

” Last year he escalated the war in Iraq, today he announced that there would be deescalation beyond July, yet somehow stood there with a straight face and lied about how he was withdrawing troops. Now, that was hardly the lone instance of dissembling, tortured logic, sophistry and outright dishonesty in Mr. Bush’s latest sugar-coating of the undeniable and unforgivable fact that he is continuing to arrange for the needless deaths of American heroes.”

hmmmmm, I’m not lawyer but

If the Bush Administration suspended the 4th Ammendment after 9/11 for a few couple teensy weensy hundred days or a year or so

annnnnnddddddddd The Attorney General Says:

Under sharp questioning from Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) at an Appropriations Committee hearing, Mukasey said that the “Fourth Amendment applies across the board, regardless of whether we’re in wartime or in peacetime,” even though the memo by the department’s Office of Legal Counsel had concluded otherwise.

Then impeachment proceedings should start post haste, no?
