John McCain has foot-in-mouth disease. McCain responded by saying immigrants were taking jobs nobody else wanted. He offered anybody in the crowd $50 an hour to pick lettuce in Arizona.

I’ll admit that I am not much of a basketball fan, but I have been fascinated by Elena Delledon for years.  The rivalry that she developed with another player at St. E’s was really a boon for womens basketball in Delaware.  When her rival, Khadijah Rushdan went to Rutgers, Elena stood alone in the state […]

Filed in National by on August 18, 2008 28 Comments

Filed in National by on July 30, 2008 16 Comments

Over at the Huffington Post there is an article about using citizens arrest to capture Karl Rove, Harriet Meirs or John Bolton. This is intriguing.  I wonder if we could turn the Delaware beaches into a bastion for apprehending criminals. And before any of you start saying that it is not within our rights to […]

LiberalGeek is Delaware’s Hottest Blogger

Filed in National by on July 27, 2008 14 Comments

A little over a year ago, a blogger claimed himself to be Delaware’s Hottest Blogger. There was no election, he was the Paul Bremer of Hot Bloggers. We had interim elections a few months ago to try to control this blogger and make him obey the rule of law. He lost that vote.  Instead, he […]
