I have some time before the teenagers wake up, so I thought I'd try and put up a Thanksgiving foodie thread! This year I'm trying some new recipes, along with my son's favorites - since he just returned home from college and deserves some special treatment!
I'm sticking with Turkey as the main course, but having some fun with the side dishes.
People are thankful for many different things by the time Thanksgiving rolls around. Some are thankful for their health. Others are happy they have close friends and a loving family. I'm thankful for politicians.
We know who the players are, but what are the plays? What legislation do we want to see moved this term? Can Andria L. Bennett keep a family tradition alive by adding an extra $50.00 fines to crimes perpetrated against old people and veterans?
Does anyone know what, "Do you favor raising taxes on the wealthiest Americans?" is polling at?
To hear Republicans discuss it, you'd think that raising taxes on the wealthy was less popular than a proposal for universal gonorrhea.
Who will make the 4th Annual MVP (Most Valuable to the Progressive Cause) Awards List?
We're open for any and all of your suggestions. Here are the criteria:
1. This list is Delaware-specific. Those who most helped the progressive cause in Delaware this year.
2. Nominees need not be progressives to qualify. Both Christine O'Donnell and Tony DeLuca previously made the list. I'm thinking that John Sigler is a shoo-in this year...
3. Nominees do not have to come solely from the political arena. In fact, I would love to recognize those who are doing great work away from the headlines.
4. Nominees will only be considered in the form of on-line responses to this thread. Those submitting nominations must have some supporting statement on behalf of the candidacy.
Deadline for nominations is Sunday, December 9.
