Though the song was written about America under Reagan, its core message remains true today: We all gotta duck when the shit hits the fan. The Circle Jerks formed in…
I'm not holding my breath expecting America to come to grips with what it was, is and shall become, so I expect people to deny until death the fact that…
I'm a little bit surprised to find that DEGOP registration growth tracks with Democrats. Although the DEGOP has fallen to third party status in many DE Rep District - the Trump years shit show didn't cause the widespread abandonment of the DEGOP that one would expect.

Republicans are just racist motherfuckers who hate America. I guess it is that simple.
I have learned over the years that J. Mascis is an acquired taste that a lot of people failed to acquire, but this breakup song comes as close to mass…
Baghdad On The Potomac. Complete with its own Green and Red Zones: In an unprecedented move, the Mall and much of the surrounding area is closed to the public days…
Prior to last Wednesday the Capitol had never been occupied by the domestic terrorist and homegrown enemies of the United States of American. The seat of government had never been defiled by the enemies of the Constitution claiming to be patriots.
It wasn't strong locks on the doors that keep those enemies out. It was the fact enemies of America were not welcomed into our political parties. The enemies of decency have always been with us, they just hadn't ever been encouraged and supported by a political party. The thing that kept our democracy running since June 21, 1788, and kept the Capitol un-occupied was the fact that we all agreed that elections sometimes have outcomes that we don't like. The thing that kept our peace and prosperity since the country's inception is the idea that we agree on basic questions of civics and common decency.
So when Republican traitors in the DEGOP boarded buses to take part in the coup attempt, they were not fighting for some noble principle. They are fighting for childishness and shortsightedness. They are fighting for their right to be peevish, selfish and stupid.

How do wingnut Congresswomen go to Congress? That's right, with a gun. This isn't one of the Dan's more celebrated tunes; it was hidden in the middle of side 2…
A couple of idle thoughts: I still can't get over the fact that six out of seven Rethuglican state senators voted against a resolution congratulating Delaware's first elected President. Did…
Looks like Pence has slipped his head out of the literal and figurative noose. The "acting President" has been reviewing the troops and filling the ceremonial vacuum created by trump's early abdication of his presidential responsibilities.
That makes him the odds on favorite to snag the 2024 nomination.
Most rock fans know this song because The Specials reached No. 10 in the UK with a cover in 1979. This is the original rocksteady version by Jamaican-born British singer…
You can't have a progressive tax system without progressive legislators. Progressives were in short supply during the terms of Governors Pete DuPont, Mike Castle and Tom Carper. Revenue was not…
I want to do something communal to celebrate Biden's inauguration. People are sick of Zoom, but a Zoom toast to Joe, to America? I don't know. It is corny, and I'd much rather be in DC on the mall whooping it up with my fellow patriots but that will have to wait.
So is anybody doing anything?
Can we all jam out wi the same song and our doors and windows open?
Any and all ideas are welcome.
