Song of the Day 7/20: Chuck Berry, “My Ding-a-Ling”
Marjorie Taylor Greene, demonstrating the keen judgment she’s known for, used the occasion of a congressional hearing to show nude pictures of Hunter Biden to the public. The collective reaction has been what texters express as “SMH.” She’s apparently unaware that those texters, and everyone else under the age of 40, routinely send such photos […]
To figure out if Jason Aldean’s song is pro-lynching pay attention to what the Klan and MAGAs say about it. They’ll let you know.
Jason Aldean @Jason_Aldean In the past 24 hours I have been accused of releasing a pro-lynching song (a song that has been out since May) and was subject to the comparison that I (direct quote) was not too pleased with the nationwide BLM protests. These references are not only meritless, but dangerous. There is not […]
Song of the Day 7/19: People Under the Stairs, “The Effects of Climate Change on Densely Populated Areas”
Phoenix just had its 19th consecutive day of temperatures reaching 110° F – the high for the day was 118° – and there’s no sign of when it will abate. The media attention is welcome, and might even convince the public that it’s time to shut the barn door now that the horse is out. […]

The usual tiny-dick idiots want to be able to bring their machine guns to the Delaware State Fair.
Gun rights group slams Delaware State Fair ban on firearms: ‘blatant insult’
“The Delaware State Fair is now officially anti-gun,” an email blast recently sent to members of the Delaware State Sportsmen’s Association (DSSA) proclaims. The notice sounds off against a policy that prohibits patrons, vendors, exhibitors, volunteers and employees from carrying firearms at the fair from July 20-29, 2023.
The Delaware State Fair website states that “weapons of any kind or objects that appear to be weapons are prohibited and may not be brought onto the fairgrounds.”
Song of the Day 7/18: Judas Priest, “Breaking the Law”
Against all odds, it seems Donald Trump is going to be indicted for his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection. I’m not sure whether he’ll be charged with being the mastermind or just a master baiter. This song, the second single from Judas Priest’s 1980 album “British Steel,” reached No. 12 on the UK singles […]

Remember back in 2016 when Democrats scared everyone into voting for Hillary Clinton because otherwise the Supreme Court would overturn Roe v Wade? Yeah, Dems can’t feel fear in the same way Republicans can’t feel shame. Senator Murphy: GOP will ‘100 percent’ pass national abortion ban with control of Congress Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy (Conn.) […]
Dem Party primaries are good, except the ones I don’t like. They are bad.
I don’t think people should get out of the way for other people. Since the Democratic Party is the only remaining statewide party in Delaware, the primary IS the election. So have it out. Tell us the “democratic approach” to holding the office you want. Get your people fired up.
Just don’t get into tearing down other candidates. Those are the ones I don’t like.

Why aren’t Delaware Democrats doing anything? I know, Pete liked to pretend that the withered rump of the DEGOP held some power, but that was (and is) bullshit, We’re all adults here, right. We can handle the truth. I need to call this out…. Delaware Democrats have a supermajority in both houses…and a […]
Poll results and this week’s poll
24 percent of the reader and lurkers who pay attention to baseball think the Phillies will fail to make the playoffs, Those are the true Philly fans. They know something bad is about the happen, As for this week, I’m stealing from Luce Research:
Did anyone else get an odd survey about Tom Sheriden?
Yesterday I got a Luce research text with a link that opened up a survey asking a lot of questions about a guy I never heard of named Tom Sheriden and Sheriden’s possible run for congress(?)
Burning the Planet to Ashes is Good for the Economy
I guess we’ve come to that collective conclusion, because the opposite (Stopping the Planet from Burning to Ashes is Bad for the Economy) seems to hold sway among policy makers. More than 100 million people in the United States are currently under excessive heat warnings and heat advisories. Record-high temperatures are forecast for this […]
