Mat Marshall’s After-School Job

Filed in Uncategorized by on March 25, 2008 24 Comments

OK, I love Mat Marshall. He is a hell of a blogger, a hell of a mind and quite a precocious young man. I regret not catching him at the Obama victory party. I read his coverage of the Obama Rally laughing out loud and wanted to hug his Mom, Dominique for her co-blogging. Well […]

This is Like Nixon’s Erased Tapes

Filed in Uncategorized by on March 23, 2008 5 Comments

Looks like the White House is now claiming that computer hard drives that may have contained the missing emails from 2003 to 2005 have been destroyed. If nothing else, these guys need to be brought up on charges of violating the executive records act. What sort of shrill response would there have been if suddenly […]

Sure, it isn’t healthcare or the war, but which is your preference for Easter dinner?  I picked up a smoked ham from Durhams BBQ (Fletchwood and Elkton Roads) last night.  I cannot describe how good a nice freshly smoked ham is. Happy Easter, from DelawareLiberal.Net.

It has gotten bad.  The economy is in a shambles, well-respected companies are being consolidated into oblivion, people are working harder for less buying power.  The culprits in some of these cases are entitlements. CEOs, CFOs and the like all feel that they are entitled to tens of millions of dollars as a payment for […]

Did Anyone Else Hear This Drivel?

Filed in Uncategorized by on March 21, 2008 43 Comments

On the way into work this AM I heard a Republican DE lawmaker Joe Fitzgerald of the NCC Chamber making some point about how unfair it was to business owners to raise the minimum wage. The quote was something like ‘Let’s face it, the price of everything is going up these days and some of […]

Gerald Hocker Takes a Page Out of the Bush/Cheney Playbook

Filed in Uncategorized by on March 19, 2008 26 Comments

Gerald Hocker apparently doesn’t like that Maria Evans called him out on being so wrong about wind power. He has a guest post up on WGMD’s blog (of all places). The strategy appears to be to throw out as much BS as possible, in hopes of people hearing it so much that they start to […]

Wikileaks has a document online that details how JP Morgan helps its insider investors sell their stock in ways that circumvent insider trading laws. Does it work? Alan D.

Filed in Uncategorized by on March 5, 2008 4 Comments

Let me first admit that I haven’t read the report yet, although I will tonight.  I just wanted to scoop Dave on Delaware placing #4 in government performance.  The study was conducted by The Pew Center on the States and Governing Magazine and focused on money, people, infrastructure and information.  I’m sure Dave was on […]
