What Have We Become?
Is this what we have become? The video at the link is very disturbing. It shows abject violence to dairy cows and calves. It made me sick to my stomach. In this day and age, I cannot fathom that there are people who could do this to a helpless animal. But yet, I know it […]
Political Advertising
We’re going to be inundated with political ads between now and November. Thanks to some hard work over at the Huffington Post, we can enjoy some of these in this mash-up they put together the other day. Note the prominence of Mike Castle (Confederate-DE At Large).
Shaking Things Up in Sussex
We mentioned last week that Eric “St. Bodie Girl” Bodenweiser filed to run against Sen. Joe Booth in the Confederate Party primary for the 19th Senate district seat. Bodie has told anyone who will listen to him (and that seems to be the Klan and the Delaware 9/12 “patriots”), that he plans to spend $100,000 […]
Another Bush Appointee Joins the Ranks of the Convicted
Another one of Dubya’s political appointees became a convicted felon yesterday. The OSC is the office that is supposed to protect Federal employees against retaliation when they file whistleblower complaints. It’s supposed to enforce Merit System rules and investigate complaints. Under Bloch, the OSC failed miserably. One of the first things Bloch did when he […]
Wingnuts Don’t Only Run for Congress
Angel Clark over at delawarepolitics.net posted an interview she did with Matthew Walsh, who is running for Mayor of Georgetown. Now if I was running for mayor of Georgetown, or any other city in Delaware or the US for that matter, I’d address things that I believed the voters would be concerned about, such as […]
Another Loss for the Civil Rights Community
Another leader in the fight for equality, Dr. Dorothy Height, died this morning. Dr. Height was a towering figure in the fight for civil rights. She not only led the fight for justice in the Black community, but she was also a strong supporter of equality for the gay and lesbian community. I had the […]
A Sad Day for Those Who Fought for Fairness
Lost amid all of the hub-bub of the tea dances that were going on today: Benjamin Hooks, the long-time head of the NAACP, died today. He was a true hero of the dispossessed and fought for equality for the Black community in the ever rising tide of Reaganism that was sweeping the country. He will […]
No Blue-Light Special for Sussex County Teabaggers
After seeing Cassandra’s post this morning about how the Delaware GOP is in bed with the Tea Party, promoting their demonstrations around the state tomorrow, we decided to contact Kmart to see what their feelings were about the ir parking lot being used as a staging area for the Rehoboth Beach area’s public teabagging […]
Is Eric Bodenweiser Sussex County’s Joan of Arc or Another False Prophet?
Eric Bodenweiser, one of the founders of the now-defunct Sussex County Community Organized Regiment (SKKKOR) is on a mission to save the 14th RD, and by doing that, saving Sussex County. He has House Majority Leader Pete Schwartzkopf (D-Rehoboth Beach) in his figurative gun sight (knowing how off-balanced Bodie is, it might be literally, too). […]
Tea Party Nation’s Master Plan to Repeal HCR
Look what landed in my email box: Tea Party Nation A message to all members of Tea Party Nation Now we fight!!! Over the last few days, you have heard very little from Tea Party Nation on the Socialist Health Care vote. This was by design. We had little more to offer than other patriot […]
Forget March Madness
Who cares about college basketball (actually, since my bracket got busted when Villanova lost, I don’t care anymore). The real college championship right now is the NCAA Hockey Tournament. My alma mater, the DU Pioneers, the #1 ranked team in the nation, open up play on Friday in Albany against RIT. Go DU!!!! http://www.uscho.com/
This has Gotten Out-of-Hand
It’s bad enough that we had to endure a Summer and Fall of “Crazy Eileens” disrupting meetings with their anti-health care reform rhetoric and their crazy birther BS, on Congressmen calling the POTUS a liar while on the floor of the House, of self-styled commentators on FAUX news calling progressives a cancer on socitey, but now […]
