National Media beginning to notice that Mike Castle is a Liar
Over the past year, we have documented the instances where Mike Castle has lauded stimulus projects that he has voted against. And now the national media is beginning to notice, as a result of this Think Progress piece that links back to our original story in February about Castle voting against the very same stimulus […]
For Shame, Charlie Copeland
By now, we are all aware of the despicable crimes alleged of Dr. Earl Bradley, a Sussex County pediatrician. Charlie Copeland has now decided that it is all Beau Biden’s fault. Much like Rudy Giuliani, Charles Lamont du Pont Copeland has a faulty memory, or is an outright liar. Or perhaps Copeland, despite all his […]
Breaking: Joe Biden’s Mother Has Died
I just received a call from LiberalGeek who has informed me (via twitter) that Joe Biden’s mother, Jean Biden, has died. She was 92, so at least we can say she lived a long and eventful life, and saw her son become Vice President of the United States. Our thoughts are with the Biden family. […]
Friday Open Thread
It’s Friday and it’s open thread time. Let me congratulate BCS champion Alabama for kicking Texas’s freshman quarterback around. Alabama was probably the best team but who knows how they would have played against Boise State. If only there was a way of determining who was really the best team… Let’s start with some good […]
Newest 9/11 Revisionist – Rudy Giuliani?
I can’t believe Rudy Giuliani passed up the opportunity to talk about 9/11: Rudy Giuliani, the man who was mayor of New York City during the 9/11 attacks, appeared on Good Morning America today to say President Obama should take lessons from former President George W. Bush on how to prevent a terrorist attack. “What […]
New Legislation filed by Short, Bennett and Keeley.
House Bill 302, sponsored by Short, would grant immunity to anyone reporting suspected financial exploitation of elderly and infirm adults. Bennett’s the sponsor of House Bill 299, which would add EMT’s paramedics, fire police and fire marshals to the list of first responders protected by law if they’re assaulted while on duty. Keeley’s measure, House Bill 303, is aimed at prohibiting unfair practices related to tax refund anticipation loans and setting up penalties for offenders.
Morning Quick Hits
When Congressman J.D. Hayworth began making noises about challenging McCain this year for reelection, I thought he was just raising money for his own reelection to Congress, taking advantage of the teabagging hatred of McCain. And the threat of the primary did move McCain to the right. But Hayworth just confirmed that he is seriously […]
Broder Should Stick To Writing Castle Press Releases
David Broder, the “dean” of pundits writes a particularly disgusting column today. Was Christmas Day 2009 the same kind of wake-up call for Barack Obama that Sept. 11, 2001, had been for George W. Bush? The near-miss by a passenger plotting to blow up an American airliner as it flew into Detroit seems to have […]
Can I Call Her Dumb?
Starbursts! Sarah Palin’s charming opening debate line for now-Vice President Joe Biden — “Hey, can I call you Joe?” — was scripted after she repeatedly referred to him as “O’Biden” in preparation sessions, former McCain campaign senior adviser Steve Schmidt told “60 Minutes.” Schmidt was interviewed by Anderson Cooper for a segment about “Game Change: […]
du Pont goes all Inhofe.
Pete du Pont praises Sarah Palin and then mis-characterizes the data from an organization whose name he gets wrong, and further fails to check the actual position of the aforesaid organization on climate change. So much for reasonable moderate Northeastern Republicans.
Markell Nominates Clarke Streett to Superior Court
Governor Markell has nominated New Castle Recorder of Deeds Diane Clarke Streett to the Superior Court. Streett, a graduate of Cornell Law School who currently is New Castle County Register of Wills, will be taking the position on the bench left by retiring Judge John E. Babiarz Jr. Before being elected Register of Wills for […]
Spencer Challenges Carney on Primary Funds
Democrat Scott Spencer challenges his primary opponent, John Carney, to pledge not to use any Democratic Party money should he be endorsed by the state Party in his primary. It does seem to be a perfectly reasonable request. For we here at Delaware Liberal were all up in arms, and legitimately so, in 2008 when […]
