Will Mike Castle Put On The GOP’s Ghost Shirt?
Will Mike Castle toe the GOP’s party line again? Who knows, but one thing is sure – You have a call to make… President Obama worked through the weekend to convince skeptics in Congress to quickly pass his economic recovery plan this week.

Are You A Man?
Check for yourself by measuring yourself against this Popular Mechanics list of 100 skills every man should know. Of course they left out “ability to man-up and apologize when you are proven utterly and disastrously wrong.” So, by that measure – our wingnut readers are mostly frail little wussy-girls even if they can solder a […]
Tokenism Backfires on Fox
This is an interesting montage that would be funny if it were not so pitiful. Fox had this token man with a brain named Peter Schiff on for financial segments over the past couple of years. He was put on so the other panelists would have somebody to laugh at. h/t bluehampshire.

Two of the people considering a run for council decided to drop from the race, clearing the way for Lisa Diller.

It is going to be a heck of a year!
