What the General Assembly Should Do Post-Tigani
The Delaware Way has been exposed in all its inglorious penny-ante glory, thanks to the even-by-Delaware standards excesses of Chris Tigani.
Dramatic Reading of the Drama Queen
On Tuesday, Christine O’Donnell’s new book will be on sale to peddle her lies and mis-characterizations. Among the reported lies in the book, Christine claims:
- Mike Castle and Joe Biden conspired to bring down her campaign
- She never approved the infamous “I am not a witch” ad

So Ken Grant has decided to ask the reality-based community to get together at the BBC Tavern on Tuesday evening for a happy hour and selected dramatic readings of Ms. O’Donnell’s …ummm… works.

Legislative Perks That I Have Known

This will not be an all-inclusive list, so I intend to add to it as my memories come back. I would invite any and all anonymous current or former legislative staffers to add to the list.

Does This Wifebeater Make Me Look Fat?
Yesterday we covered the despicable email Rep. Allen West (Tejadi – FL) sent to Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Well, our resident teabagging radio talking head, Bill Colley (aka Curley, aka The Fat Man) decided to go one step further. During yesterday afternoon’s show, he said regarding the response to West’s email “If he went and […]
Markell Has Signed SB 146. Quietly. Very Quietly.
Virtually every day, we get at least one, and sometimes more, press releases from the Governor’s office, touting the signing of one piece of ‘landmark’ legislation after another. Jack Markell is not the first governor to do this, it’s a time-honored tradition of giving oneself ‘the rub’ (wrestling term for putting someone over) and giving […]
