Delaware Liberal

If all publicity is good publicity, the Occupy Delaware people have plenty to be pleased about with yesterday's News Journal coverage. "100 Protesters" feels like a large number and for the first few paragraphs the coverage was relatively free of the sneering condescension that NJ editors typically spray all over stories like this.

"Cain said he finally realized after much praying that G-D was saying that he needed to enter the presidential race. He compared his situation to Moses, who in the Bible initially questions whether G-D has chosen the right person to lead the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt." Herman, I knew Moses. Moses was a Jewish prophet of mine. Herman, your no Moses. (with apologies to Lloyd Bentsen)

I just logged in from a demo computer in the Apple store. (If anybody knows another Amish with mad skillz like mine, I'd like to meet them.) Anyway... there does not seem to be a recession in here.

Since the Occupy Wall Street movement began, it has been hard for the media and ourselves to judge if the protest is working. This is because the protestors don't have a single leader, or organization, or a list of demands. But this chart may be the only way we can tell that it is working.

It seems like just yesterday that John McCain was the "not Romney." And has it really been 4 years since we really first grasped how bigoted and crazy the GOP base had become?

Any candidate, named Mitt Romney, at rest will remain at rest in the hearts of true patriot Christian 'mericans, and any candidate. not named Mitt Romney, in motion will remain in motion unless they move up in the polls and get a little media scrutiny.

At 11:11 am today I was trying to find the number of Delawareans that were killed in WWI. I couldn't find a number, but I did find out that a staggering number of people were killed in that war. (22 million casualties e.g. killed or wounded) Great Brittan alone lost 2.5 million out of 5 million in arms. At least the deaths were not in vain and the horror of "The Great War" made it impossible for any other country to ever contemplate the idea of going to war.
