According to this Saturday’s NJ, John Carney is lending some bi-partisan credibility to one of (there’s a package of bills out there trying to weaken an already weak legislation) the bills meant to loosen restrictions on banks who are trading in derivatives from their foreign operations:

Welcome to Delaware Liberal 5.0

Filed in Delaware by Delaware Dem on May 19, 2013 • 70 Comments

Come inside for a trip down memory lane to Delaware Liberal 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 as we welcome Delaware Liberal 5.0. We were long past due for an upgrade to site. And so we have redesigned the site, reaching back into our past a little bit to add back in some black and white flavor to our logo and appearance, while embrace a new theme. Now, not much is different. Come inside to see what is new and improved…

This afternoon LiberalGeek and I are playing around with the plumbing of Delaware Liberal, giving the site a much need WordPress upgrade and uploading a new design for Delaware Liberal 4.0 (I think we are at 4.0 now). So if there are any downtimes or other malfunctions with the site, that is why.

What The… I Love Game Of Thrones

Filed in Delaware by pandora on May 18, 2013 • 2 Comments

This is nonsense:

Game of Thrones ranks somewhere on the Girl Dislike scale between NASCAR and that National Geographic show where the guy sticks his hand in a catfish’s mouth.

But why does she throw so much shade? If you just can’t understand why we’re intent on harshing your medieval buzz, here are some telltale clues.

We hate gross things. Know what’s gross? Screwing your sibling.

It’s hard to follow. Brilliantly developed storylines are great, but whipping out a dry erase board and Venn diagrams to figure it all out isn’t our idea of a good time. Unless we’re talking about soap operas. Those are perfectly fine.

It reminds us of the kids that used to play magic cards in the cafeteria. And people who go to Renaissance festivals. Eating a giant drumstick and drinking out of a goblet is cool, just not every Sunday night for three months straight.

It’s all naked chicks. In addition to the actual ladies of the night on the show, there seem to be a lot of…unofficial ladies of the night on the show. This is why guys love it, we get it, but we can do without seeing topless wenches in loin cloths.

Dudes get their hands chopped off. And their nipples. And their balls. Really? How is it that you guys like this again?

Okay, confession time… I was the one who wanted to watch GoT. Mr. Pandora was kinda meh. Know how I got him to watch it? I told him people were complaining about the gratuitous sex. My bad, but it worked! I do love that man! He’s so easy!

One of my initial complaints of GoT was that the first few episodes introduced so many characters that it became confusing. My advice is to watch the first three episodes before throwing up your hands and walking away. It’s so worth it.
