Updated: You Can’t Make This Stuff Up… Um, on second thought, I guess you can
What do Republicans have against science? Is this really just a way to package corporate profits to God-Fearing Christians? First, we have Fred Barnes making up crap, now George Will. Over the weekend, the Washington Post‘s George Will, got in on the act. And it took us about ten minutes — longer, it appears, than the Post‘s editors […]
UPDATED: What a F’ing Chickenshit Loser Mike Castle Is
UPDATE: It really was an egregious slight to women to even suggest that they, as a gender, had anything in common with the utter spineless uselessness that is Mike Castle. I’m sorry. I know I was going to cut down on the profanity, but read this from “The Hill” and tell me that Mike Castle […]
Literary Delaware
From the Publisher: It is a land of wonders. It is a land of mystery. It is a land that time forgot (or chose specifically not to remember). Cut off from the civilized world for untold years by prohibitive interstate tolls at the New Jersey border. This land is called: Delaware. It is into the […]
The Making of a Conservative Lie
Steve Benen over at The Washington Monthly points out how a conservative set of lies became “news” this week. It begins with this lie from Betsy McCaughey who works for a wingnut think tank, published in the opinion section of Bloomberg: Specifically, McCaughey insisted that the policy would create a “new bureaucracy” called the National […]
Jindal’s Belief in Hogwash
Since we are celebrating the 200th annivesarty of Charles Darwin’s birth, it’s time to bring this video clip back to the forefront. Gov. Bobby Jindal, a Republican minion favorite, supports the teaching of Intelligent Design in direct contrast to our Constitution as seen in the Kitzmeiller v. Dover Area School District et. al decision (pdf). […]
Breaking: El Somnambulo Joins DelawareLiberal
Some say that Delawareliberal is the best blog in Delaware. Others say that DelawareLiberal is the best blog in the history of blogging and that our contribution will ring through the ages like a clarion bell forged on the sunny side of Mt Olympus out of pure truth and beauty. I think people who say […]
The Top 10 Best Presidents
We have a poll to the left listing the top 3 Presidents. All historians agree that these three are the best, with the number 1 spot switching back and forth between them. Batshit crazy wingnuts will scream that Reagan is the best and you are communist if you think otherwise. Well, no one agrees with […]
Day 19: Mike Castle’s Betrayal of Delaware
The LTE that I submitted to the News Journal yesterday: With his vote against the Stimulus Package (and against the largest middle class tax cut in history), Congressman Mike Castle definitively demonstrates that his allegiances are no longer with the citizens of Delaware he was elected to represent. Mr. Castle was quick to support every […]
Complete these sentences
Tax breaks for corporations that are laying of tens of thousands of jobs create jobs because…. A government employee isn’t in a job. He/she is just doing work because…. I am head of the RNC and I tell you not to trust me and now you are going to….
SNL Tried to Parody the GOP
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iRWukDe4BI[/youtube] This parody from Saturday past is of the current GOP tactic of cheering on the failure of the economy so that they can get some electorial gain out of it. Except this invoked to me the same watching a trainwreck feeling that I get when reading wingnut blogs these days. It seemed just a […]
Republicans Put the “Mental” in Governmental
Atrios carries this blurb about the California budget fiasco: The hang-up came in trying to reach the required two-thirds majority in each house, where three Republican votes are needed. The Assembly appeared to have sufficient votes lined up, but the Senate was falling one short. Debate halted after Republican Sen. Dave Cox told reporters he was […]
Kill Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Now
President Obama, tear down this policy. Amy Brian was in the Kansas National Guard, had served in Iraq and survived an IED blast there. Back in Kansas, she was hard at work trying to bring some order to the local government purchase program, trying to save the government money. Although the fact that she was […]
