In Which We Find the CRI Making Stuff Up Again To Try To Scare People
Seriously — they are actually PAYING money for their bullshit. And the new bullshit is today’s amateurish hand-wringing about Delaware’s debt situation and how apparently this is supposed to be a sword of Damocles for state Democrats by the CRI’s resident economist. An economist who apparently aspires to be the local version of the Laffer curve guy.

Our Interview with Bill Dunn: Balancing the County Budget
Cassandra and I sat down with Bill Dunn last Tuesday evening to discuss his candidacy for the Democratic nomination in the special election to replace Paul Clark as New Castle County Council President.

Cindy McCain Lies
What a weak, pathetic woman. Shame on me for thinking she had a backbone (and a part of me is hoping that this is a big misunderstanding – that someone hijacked her twitter account). Geez, why even make the ad if you’re going to cave?

I’m bored with how fucked up Republicans are. So if I was going to write a post right now, I’d write about how I sense that America’s stupid, narrow, dumbed-down, cultural beauty standards for women are changing for the better. Except I’m a lazy son of a bitch and it is a very nice day […]
Not Even Original Dreck
Many passages of George W. Bush’s new memoir were lifted from other books and articles. He even includes stories of events where he wasn’t present and passes them off as his own memories.

He made clear that the […]
This Is How Its Done
As anon notes in today’s Open Thread, Nancy Pelosi was on NPR Morning Edition this AM, discussing the path forward.
Cindy McCain Sticks It To Hubby
Watch the video. The one thing that stands out – when it comes to Cindy McCain – is how what she says hits directly at her husband. Religious and political leaders? DADT? Wonder who she’s targeting? “Our political and religious leaders tell LGBT youth that they have no future,” Mrs. McCain says in the ad, […]
Connections
Perhaps this… The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, one of the most right-wing courts in the country, sanctioned a former high school cheerleader because she brought a lawsuit claiming that she shouldn’t be required to cheer for her alleged rapist: … leads to this: A 14-year-old girl who was taunted by […]
