Quote of the Day
Paul Krugman writes: Life is easy if you’re a conservative. Even if conservatives fail completely while in power, they can turn around and say, “See — that proves our point. Government doesn’t work!”
Bracket of Evil
More March Madness from CREDO: “Use the bracket below to vote for the most malevolent forces in American politics – we’ll let you know when the results are in for each round so that you can see your evil favorites all the way through to the championship. Just click on the people/corporations you want to […]
Electronic Voter Fraud in Kentucky
I just came across this story in my travels. The story is about indictments in KY of election officials for changing electronic votes at the voting machine. Basically, the voters would cast their votes and press the “VOTE” button at the bottom of the ballot. Then they would walk out. The vote button actually was […]
What’s In The Water At CNBC?
Talk about being out of touch. On CNBC this morning, host Mark Haines — who is catching heat this morning for arguing that Wall Street can’t “be run well” by anyone making under $250,000 — was at it again defending the need for high executive bonuses in order to keep Wall Street running. When I […]

The Morning After
March 19, 2009 will forever be remembered as the date that Delaware’s Gilded Age officially ended. An age that was literally ‘built on a house of (credit) cards’ is no more. The same institutions that buttressed Delaware’s financial strength, compliments of the usurious interest rates that Delaware had legalized, imploded and helped lead what in […]
QOD
Would you let your 16 year old daughter get a tattoo? Would you turn it into a nice father/daughter or mother/daughter experience? If you were divorced would you tell or ask for the father/mother’s opinion? (Purely hypothetical, never in a million years could this happen to me)
Homelessness is Hard
I have not given much of an update on the homeless man that I have been helping. This is more of a reflection of my laziness than a lack of things happening. Thanks to the Friendship House, he was able to get his birth certificate from New York. This took 2 months. Since then, we […]
