Assault Weapons Ban Introduced In Dover
SB 163 (Townsend) was officially introduced today in Dover. If you read the lengthy synopsis of the bill, you will notice that several court decisions are cited as precedents. The Forces Of Evil plan to take no prisoners on this bill. From the News-Journal article: “There is no room for compromise or amendments on this,” […]
Batshit-Crazy John Bolton Headed To Trump’s Rescue
One of the leading advocates/apologists for the Iraq War is reportedly replacing Gen. H. R. McMaster, who Trump has just fired. John Bolton’s unique combination of idiocy and bloodlust is absolutely terrifying. And he’s about to become Trump’s National Security Advisor, a position that I don’t believe requires Senate confirmation. The negative synergy that he […]
General Assembly Post-Game Wrap-Up/Pre-Game Show: Thurs., March 22, 2018
With two session Wednesdays lost to the snow, there’s a backup of legislation in House and Senate committees. Meaning, there’s a paucity of legislation available to consider during regular session. More likely a good thing than a bad thing. Especially when one sees how the ‘Honorables’ have dealt with the limited number of bills they’ve […]

Doo-wop don’t get much better than this. Actually, it’s a doo-wop/jump blues mash-up:
What If Tom Carper Doesn’t Run?
I’ve been thinking about this lately. You have a clearly diminished incumbent, one who will be forced to display that diminished capacity publicly this year. He has more pensions than Trump has women suing him. I can see him taking the money and not running. He probably can still remember Bill Roth’s campaign literally crashing […]

Asked my wife to give me the first song that came into her head. She said that she and my oldest daughter both like this song. Me? I’d never heard it, but here ya go:
Delaware General Assembly Pre-Game Show: Tuesday, March 20, 2018
So, Rep. PAL Longhurst goes into high dudgeon over the weakening of her bump stocks bill in the Senate. These amendments passed the Senate and are now part of the bill: SA 2(Delcollo) and SA 4(Ennis). While I agree with her, she is the last person who should make that argument. Lest we forget, back […]

Man, I find some intriguing stuff on the internets. I want to hear more from former Carolina Chocolate Drops cellist Leyla McCalla. This will work for starters:
Kerri Harris Fundraiser Rescheduled

These guys reportedly KILLED it at SXSW. I totally understand why. My new favorite group?:
Song Of The Day: March 18, 2018
My fave Sondheim song–at least for this week. One of the great songs about obsession ever. OK, I just can’t quit Sondheim Week w/o the amazing Act 1 finale to ‘Sunday In The Park With George’:
The Dickiest Move Of All-Time?
Donald Trump, via executioner Jeff Sessions, fires Andrew McCabe 26 hours before he’s set to retire. After the Friday News Dump. You know, in order to screw him out of his full pension. Trump reacted in typical presidential fashion: Andrew McCabe FIRED, a great day for the hard working men and women of the FBI […]
