Delaware Dem's Latest Posts
Friday Open Thread
It is Delaware Liberal’s fault that every time I think of Friday, I think of Bacon.
The News Journal will be late today….
….they say it’s something about storms and lightning, massive flooding. Pfft. Excuses excuses.
We all have our roles to play.
The old Delaware Dem, back in the olden days of Daily Kos, would think that Progressives should be happy with that and would fire off a bombastic diary at any hint of dissention on the left in voice or deed. I guess that was because I felt we on the left should be a nice big happy liberal-Democratic-progressive family, all united on the same team, especially when the only other team in town is a bunch of literally evil theocratic fascists. Indeed, back in the olden days, I started and sustained many a flame war on the Great Orange Satan over this doctrine of SYFPH (Shut your fucking pie hole).
The new me doesn’t care. Be miserable if you want. Blast Obama day in and day out for his failures to give you the pony you wanted, or for failing to give you the right model pony you want. Because the ponies you are crying for is Social Security, or Medicare, or progressive and fair taxation, better schools, single payer universal healthcare, equal rights, ending unnecessary wars of choice, and so on and so on.
My point is that we all have our roles to play. I have slowly but finally realized that over the last few years.
Thursday Open Thread
President Obama has been away from the White House or at Camp David for 70 days during his Presidency. At this same point in his first term, George W. Bush was away for 225 days. We all know which is worst.
Would this happen here?
Japanese citizens have shown incredible honesty in the aftermath of the earthquake and tsunami that brought the country to its knees. It emerged yesterday that the Japanese returned almost $78million in cash found in the quake rubble.
The GOP Establishment is Freaking the F*ck Out.
Bachmann and Perry are trouncing Romney in the polls. That’s why we are hearing about Christie and Ryan (who both are still denying they will run). Eventually, though, the GOP will come to accept what has to happen: the crazies have to have their turn at the wheel. And only after the GOP car has been driven off the cliff can the GOP credibly say to them that crazy doesn’t win elections.
O’Donnell Walks Off Set of Piers Morgan
Christine O’Donnell walked off the set of her interview with Piers Morgan after he probed her on the topics of witchcraft and gay marriage.
Question of the Day
Has Mike Matthews purchased his copy of Troublemaker yet, and if so, was the first thing he did was to flip to the index to see if he was mentioned?
Wednesday Open Thread
Ah, Hump Day. You’re at the mid point of the week now. All down hill until the weekend. So a law firm is moving into a new building that will feature a 1,500 gallon shark tank, which will hold three sharks. No mistaking that message.
She’s just not that into you.
“I am disappointed that she has not taken an active role in fixing the party. You can’t go in and screw it all up and walk away,” said Steve Grossman, of Dover, who was O’Donnell’s Kent County campaign coordinator. Looks like the conservative hayseeds downstate are finally starting to realize that Christine O’Donnell, like Sarah Palin, is all about herself.
It’s the anniversary of his death, Michelle. Not the same thing as his birthday.
Michele Bachmann opened her event in Spartansburg, South Carolina today by wishing Elvis Presley a Happy Birthday. The problem is, well there are multiple problems…
Christine O’Donnell: Just Give It Up and Go Away.
It is in my best interests, and in the best interests of the Democratic Party, to keep Christine O’Donnell as the face and leader of the Delaware Republican Party. But it is to the point now where it is just embarrassing. I doubt I will ever feel sorry for her, but come on, Christine… enough! Every time you open your mouth or put pen to paper, a lie is born.
Tuesday Open Thread
Tuesdays are like the red headed step child of the week. Not as bad as Monday, but still too far from the weekend to be any good. Plus, September 11th happened on a Tuesday, and Tuesday has never once said it was sorry…
