Biden’s Passive Voice Chickenshit Malarkey

Filed in National by on May 19, 2022 6 Comments

Biden still refuses to call out the racist white supremacists currently running the Republican Party by name. Why? Some vain hope that “the good Republicans” will reassert themselves?  Fear of losing the 250 “centrist” voters who don’t like confrontation?  Give me a fucking break. In his Buffalo speech, Biden declared, “Hate will not prevail.” He […]

Song of the Day 5/18: Eric Clapton, “Change the World”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on May 18, 2022 1 Comment

Eric Clapton, who’s been in the news several times during the pandemic for his anti-vax and anti-quarantine views, has had to cancel some concerts because, inevitably, he’s caught Covid. What’s surprising is that he’s touring at all, considering his claims about his reaction to getting the Astra-Zeneca vaccine last year. I took the first jab […]

Shouldn’t have been so naive as to believe that the lemmings would stand up to Longhurst.  Last comment on the corruption at Ft. DuPont–until/unless someone gets in trouble. Not holding my breath.  The fix has been in for years now. Otherwise, a pretty productive session yesterday.  Notable and, IMO opinion, positive bills that passed yesterday.  […]

Song of the Day 5/17: Cheryl Wheeler, “If It Were Up to Me”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment, National by on May 17, 2022 0 Comments

Folksinger Cheryl Wheeler wrote this in 1998, in the aftermath of the Jonesboro, Ark., school shootings. They were shocking at the time because the murderers were just 13 and 11 years old, but Columbine happened the next year so Jonesboro is largely forgotten. No wonder — there have been more than 230 school shootings since. […]

Busy, busy busy.  No time to waste. Unless you’re the House. In which case, you can consider legislation designating the official dinosaur and reptile of Delaware.  To be fair, these bills are likely both the products of school projects.  You know, ‘how a bill becomes law’. The dinosaur designation certainly is.  In that case, the […]

DL Open Thread Tuesday May 17 2022

Every time you read the word “Republican” substitute “White Supremacist” and you take a step closer to the truth:

Via Twitter – @chriscoons Presided over a vital hearing yesterday with my white supremacist colleague @LindsayGrahamSC. The world is counting on the US to lead the way in fighting global hunger and COVID-19. It’s crucial for Americans’ safety and security that we fully fund our response to these threats.


During a Monday appearance on David Brody’s Real America’s Voice show The Water Cooler, Oz committed the cardinal sin of both admitting he hasn’t seen Dinesh D’Souza’s misinformation-filled “documentary2000 Mulesand refusing to use the words “rigged” or “stolen” when referring to the 2020 election.

Song of the Day 5/15: Spinal Tap, “Rock and Roll Nightmare”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on May 15, 2022 1 Comment

They’re not asking for my two cents, but I think the Rock Hall of Fame is squandering a golden opportunity by not enshrining Spinal Tap. Not only are they known and loved by a wide swath of the rock-fan public, they’re almost universally loved by musicians. Everybody would want to play at the ceremony. Spinal […]
