Greg Lavelle: His (Ass) Holiness of the Year

5 Comments
Monsignor (and Representative) Greg Lavelle, tireless defender of pedophile priests and the dioceses that protect them, has worked his law 'n order Jones into a Santorum-like creamy froth over the greatest danger to America today. Yep, the Occupy Delaware protestors. Let's just enjoy this Rethug Attack Dog waxing rabid over this issue. Click through.

Does Governor Markell finally have an opponent?

Rumors have it over on the Dark Side that Eric Buckson, son of the former 18 day Governor David Buckson and 4th District Representative for Kent County Levy Court, may run for Governor himself. Buckson has been on the Kent County Levy Court (for those who live in the state's other two counties, a Levy Court is like a County Council) since 2006. He is also employed by the Polytech School District as their Athletic Director and Attendance Officer.

My Advice for Occupy Delaware Today

The fight over Fletcher Brown Park is a loser with the public. It is a PR disaster waiting to happen, one that will certainly lead to the crib death my colleague Liberalgeek spoke about a couple weeks ago here. The movement will not garner sympathy for its First Amendment rights nor its grievances by picking a fight with daycare children who use the park during the week. In fact, it is the perfect distraction for opponents of Occupy Delaware to use to make the movement fail. Listen, the fight for visibility and centrality was lost when the Rodney Square permit was denied. There is no other centrally located park in the business district with the visibility of Rodney Square. Once the city denied that permit, it did not matter if the Occupation occurred at the Riverfront, Fletcher Brown or Brandywine. Because the later three all have one thing in common: they are not Rodney Square. So please, good folks at Occupy DE, avoid a public relations disaster that will cripple the movement and camp at Brandywine.
