Will Christine O’Donnell dress as ‘Not A Witch’? For years, I dressed as a ‘Non-Essential State Employee’. Had that costume nailed. I Call Bullshit On This Piece: Democratic leadership has for the most part has been subdued in their response, allowing it to naturally seep in to the consciousness of voters, giving the story time […]

Exxon Chief: We’re Getting Rich on Behalf of the American People
Ah Capitalism, you sick bastard. Faced with calls to share the oil industry’s 2022 windfall with the American people, Exxon CEO Darren Woods says he’s doing just that — in the form of a big dividend payout to shareholders. No really. I’m not kidding. “There has been discussion in the U.S. about our industry returning […]
Song of the Day 10/29: Frank Sinatra, “High Hopes”
Guest post by Nathan Arizona “High Hopes” is best known around here as a tune associated with two great singers — Frank Sinatra and Harry Kalas. OK, one great singer. Harry’s voice was much better for announcing Phillies games than for singing. But it’s the late Harry Kalas who’s most identified with “High Hopes” in […]

How To Leave Twitter And Protect Your Personal Information. A (I think) useful How-To. For me, Delaware Liberal is the closest I get to social media. Sometimes it pays to be anti-social.

Song of the Day 10/28: Cliff Nobles, “The Horse”
A lot of people ignore the lyrics in popular music, and there’s good evidence they’re onto something — some songs do better with the vocals removed. That’s what happened to Cliff Nobles, whose single “Love Is All Right” is a footnote to the 1968 hit “The Horse.” You can’t really call it “his” hit, because […]

Elon Musk And Twitter Get Married. Step-kids (workers) likely to be disowned. Conspiracy theorists rejoice. Is Trump back on there yet?: The closing of the deal, which followed months of drama and legal challenges as Mr. Musk changed his mind about buying the company, sets Twitter on an uncertain course. Mr. Musk, a self-described “free […]
Mike Pence is a History Doofus
Mike Pence wants America to be a Christian country. He doesn’t appear to know that the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States both products of the Enlightenment. He also doesn’t seem to know that the framers of the Republic really didn’t want a state religion. I don’t know if Pence has […]
Song of the Day 10/27: Jerry Lee Lewis, “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On”
Jerry Lee Lewis has become Schrödinger’s Rock Star — TMZ didn’t know if he was alive or dead until somebody checked. The tabloid-on-a-computer site apologized yesterday for taking the word of somebody claiming to be Lewis’ representative and reporting that Lewis had expired at age 87. You can’t kill the Killer that easily — he’s […]

The Atlantic – Via Boing Boing
It seems likely that the MAGA party will take control of the house, thanks to a combination of voter intimidation and blaming Biden for global inflation. After they kill the J6 investigation, they’ll tackle two other jobs: impeaching Biden and installing a MAGA president. This article in The Atlantic lays out the roadmap for impeachment, which includes linking Hunter Biden to his father.
Song of the Day 10/26: The Beatles, “Yellow Submarine (Songwriting Work Tape / Part 1)”
The Beatles recorded output apparently will be mined for sales until the last Boomer is buried, if not beyond. Recent years have seen the serial remastering of the band’s catalog, a project overseen by Giles Martin, son of legendary producer George Martin. The latest album to get the treatment is “Revolver,” the group’s 1966 great […]
Burns v. Ramone
Incumbents are tough to beat but Burns has a shot in the 21st. This is probably the most competitive race in the state.
We are now 12 days out, so if you can’t help canvas or phone bank, you should all probably donate ($50, $100, $200) to Burns at this point.
