Divided On Israel

Filed in International by on January 7, 2009 10 Comments

John Aravosis at Americablog articulates my feelings about Israel pretty well. I’m always very divided about issues surrounding Israel. I think many Americans on the right have a knee-jerk support of Israel (either for strategic reasons, or because they’re evangelicals who believe Israel will bring about the Second Coming, and who then believe that 2/3 […]

Blogger Dinner Update/Open Thread

Filed in National by on January 7, 2009 10 Comments

THE DELAWARELIBERAL INAUGURAL BALL is going to be awesome, but it really stomped on our organizational momentum to get the blogger dinner done in February.  [Also, I have probably alienated half of the DE blogopshere by running around calling everyone douche bags, moronic windbags & other bag related epithets.] So I don’t really know where we […]

Kowalko to Get Choice Committee Chair

Filed in Delaware by on January 7, 2009 13 Comments

Representative John Kowalko (25th) has been chosen to head the House Energy Committee.  It will be great to have a guy chairing an energy committee that actually knows stuff about it.  I wonder if he can hire Arnetta McRae to cross-examine Randall Speck about how he was paid. Personally, I hope that John will take […]

This CAN’T Be True.

The Porn Industry wants a bailout. “With all this economic misery and people losing all that money, sex is the farthest thing from their mind,” Flynt says. “It’s time for Congress to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America.” Francis sees his industry like the big three automakers, only BIGGER: “Congress seems willing to help shore […]

Left Blogosphere Destroyed. Seriously.

Filed in National by on January 7, 2009 7 Comments

Wow, I bet you all are glad that I didn’t demand Delaware Liberal use Scoop / Soapblox when I joined, for nearly all of the sites powered by Soapblox have been hacked and their archives and databases destroyed. Check out Swing State Project, for example. Here is the story over at Daily Kos, which remains […]

Deep Longevity Thought

My knowledge of Wilmington politics is pretty thin, but James Baker must be pretty good to be the first guy to be elected mayor three times.

Resolution (Maybe not)

The Chicago Tribune is reporting that Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich could be impeached by the Illinois House “by week’s end,” and will also have “former Illinois Atty. Gen. Roland Burris testify Thursday about Blagojevich’s offer to appoint him to the U.S. Senate seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama.” These moves seem to have softened the […]

What’s the Deal with Blair House?

Filed in National by on January 7, 2009 19 Comments

What is the real story behind Blair House, because what’s emerging is raising pettiness to a new level.  Was the Obama’s request to move in ten days early really denied due to an overnight visit by a former Prime Minister?  And can you imagine what the MSM would be doing with this story if it had […]

More Evidence That Ron Williams Is a Useless Dim Wit

Filed in Delaware by on January 7, 2009 10 Comments

Today’s Williams bullshit makes me pity people who read the newspaper for information. Running into Mike Castle over the holidays led to an obvious question and he came back with the obvious answer. He’ll either retire, which wife Jane favors enthusiastically, run again for the House, or go for Joe Biden’s open Senate seat in […]
