Not Breaking – Trump is a lazy, fat, shithead
Trump is lazy. Of his 745 days in office, Trump has spent 222 days unwinding at Trump-branded properties and 168 days golfing.. But even when he is “at work” he is mostly watching TV and eating: In fact, “Executive Time” is far more than just a respite from the duties of the office. In perhaps […]
Song of the Day 2/4: Wilco, “Monday”
Jeff Tweedy’s homage to the Stones, from Wilco’s “Being There” album, released in 1996. If you listen closely, you can hear the cowbell. I’m pretty sure this is the most upbeat song ever with “Monday” in the title.
I hate updates
I’m old. I like the last release. Generally, my favorite is the software release from three releases ago. It had plenty of features. The new releases of shit really tend to muc everything up. Anyway…To migrate the site to the new host we had to move up to a more recent release of WordPress. There […]
Recent DL Tweets – S1E2
We tweeted this response and it got some love in the twitter sphere: The Trump National Golf Club Philadelphia has just become the third Trump property to fire undocumented workers, some who have worked there for years. How can anyone take this insane president serious? DelawareLiberal.Net @DelawareLiberalMoreReplying to @krassenstein Fired Trump workers should form a caravan […]
Song of the Day 2/3: The Rev. Al Green, “The Lord Will Make a Way”
Bet you’d find a lot more people in church if all the music was as funky as this title track from Green’s first gospel album.
Song of the Day 2/2: Ray Charles, “You Don’t Know Me”
Groundhog Day is the least impressive of holidays, but it has the best movie associated with it. The song most associated with the movie is naturally the Sonny and Cher ditty Bill Murray wakes up to over and over again. But the best use of a song on the soundtrack comes when Murray finally constructs […]
Site Migration Complete
Hi everyone. This morning I had to migrate the site to a new hosting provider. It is possible that a few comments between 9 and 11:30 were dropped as a result.
Another Tiresome Liberal Call for Someone to Resign
Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat, livened up a slow news day when he was found to have not merely posed for racist photos as a medical student, but to have actually put them in his med school yearbook. This has, naturally, set off a race among the the Awoken among us to call for […]
Highlands Bunker – E02 – This is a Commentary
Now that the second round of trials have begun, Xerxes Wilson of the News Journal joins RE Vanella to talk about the first round of Vaughn Prison Riot trials, criminal justice in Delaware, and the illustrious career of Governor John Carney.
Open Thread – I Love Cory Booker
I know that the first five comments are going to be what’s wrong with Booker. That’s fine. Get it out. Then be ready to build up your candidate. Make your case and be ready to go to work. In other news: John Bolton’s first act as Natl Security Advisor was to fire the Director of […]
Recent DL Tweets – Season 1 Episode 1
Truly amazing to see how much TV attention @ChrisCoons gets for saying the most obvious shit. This week’s bombshell “President Trump’s interests seem to be aligned with Russia’s” Stop the motherfucking PRESSES! My panini is in danger of being overcooked. (@KimmySchmidt callback)
Song of the Day 1/31: Steely Dan, “Barrytown”
Another song from the ’70s that remains sadly relevant today, though I suppose Donald Fagan would have to update “I just read the Daily News” to “I just listen to Fox News and swear by every word.” Though Dan obsessives like to dig for autobiographical references — Barrytown is a hamlet near Bard College, so […]
AOC & Markey to introduce “Green New Deal” Legislation
Here is the thing about the buzz this proposal will get. …With AOC it is like regular people finally have a representative in Congress. Have you ever felt represented by Chris Coons? I haven’t. Have you ever felt represented by Tom Carper or Lisa Blunt Rochester? Nope. They have their constituents, but unless you are a board member of a bank – you ain’t their constituent.
