What? A Private School Bus Stipend?

Filed in Delaware by admin on February 27, 2014 • 13 Comments

Ok, I’m ready for it. A transplant from Texas dares to question the Delaware practice of providing private school parents who apply for a stipend to transport their children to a non-public school? Yes. Admittedly I was shocked to learn that this is a pretty longstanding practice here and in a number of other states. Apparently also there is funding of school nurses in private schools.

Delaware is not sharing its salt with Pennsylvania or New Jersey.

Salt-strapped New Jersey had asked Delaware to share its salt earlier this week, and Delaware said it has enough to last a few more storms, but isn’t willing to share. When asked again if they’d share with neighboring states, {DelDOT Jim] Westhoff told WDEL, “No way.”

LOL. A story about a responsible squirrel and his acorns comes to mind.

Daily Approval Rating — Results for Governor Markell and Poll for Lt. Governor Matt Denn

Filed in Delaware by Delaware Dem on February 26, 2014 • 8 Comments

Here are the results for Governor Markell. The bigoted brigades that came here last night to defend the Ugandan Right to Discriminate tilted the balance of disapproval for the Governor. That’s the breaks.

Approve 32%
Disapprove 63%
Meh .045%

You can tell the poll was freeped by the knuckle draggers by the “Strongly Disapprove” option, which, out of the the 154 total votes, measured 64. True Delawareans don’t do anything strongly. We’ll redo the poll once the neanderthals are distracted by a shiny rock, next week perhaps.

Now go vote on Matt Denn, to your right————–>

Daily Approval Rating — Governor Markell

Filed in Delaware by Delaware Dem on February 25, 2014 • 2 Comments

In the poll on your right, state whether your strongly approve, approve, disapprove or strongly disapprove of the job performance of Governor Jack Markell. There is also an option for Neutral or Meh, which is also kinda like “Don’t care” or “Don’t know.” I am sure why you are voting in a poll if you have no opinion or knowledge of the subject matter of the poll, but sometimes people just want to express a resounding shrug of the shoulders as an opinion.

This poll is of course an internet poll, and thus it is purely voluntary, non-random, and non-scientific. At best, the results can only be described as a poll of the readership of Delaware Liberal.
