The Delaware Book Burning Mobile Returns.
Yesterday, the Delaware Family Planning Council had their first “Citizen Action Day” in Dover in SB 293, which our own ‘Bulo has nominated for “The Worst Bill of the Year,” and for good reason. Because they have a nice long list of books they want to ban from Delaware schools, and they want to use this bill to do it.
Conflicting Messages from your Delaware GOP.
There seems to be a confused message from Dick Cathcart and his minions on the GOP side of the aisle in the General Assembly. Since the budget was released yesterday, and posted online today, we have heard from the Republicans that this budgets spends too much, but it should spend more. Yet in the JFC, the Republican members offered no specific proposals to cut spending. How courageous of them.

General Assembly Post-Game Show/Pre-Game Report: Wed., June 23, 2010
The bullies were out in full force in Dover yesterday. And the ‘Honorables’ responded in less than Profiles in Courage fashion. AKA, a ‘Dog Bites Man’ story.

General McChrystal’s PR Offensive Failure — Update
