Delaware Political Weekly: March 25-31, 2022
1. Ex-Cop Who Is Being Sued For Sexual Harassment Running For State Senate. Yes, we’re talking about Steve Smyk, who is looking to ‘step up’ from his state rep seat (RD 20). Gotta say, that piece in the Cape Gazette is embarrassing, although there’s certainly truth in this: Smyk, and fellow Cape Region legislators Lopez, and […]
Song of the Day 4/1: Steve Miller Band, “The Joker”
The No. 1 hit that made Steve Miller a star is, in a way, the first song that owes its existence to sampling. Miller assembled it in large part from lines and riffs borrowed from earlier works, and not just his own. Everyone knows the first-verse lyrics quote tracks he recorded with earlier, bluesier incarnations […]
DL Open Thread: Friday, April 1, 2022
Not a big fan of April Fool’s posts. This will not be one of them. At least, not on purpose. Fools, however, will almost inevitably be present. Did Everybody See The First Semi-Expose Of Ft. DuPont In Mainstream Media? If not, you have now. While it doesn’t revisit the early years when disgraced former State […]
Hey, Jane Brady, Who Invited Lauren Witzke to Cocaine Orgies?
I always thought North Carolina bozo Madison Cawthorn, like most GOP congresscritters, was engaged in performance art. But that was before he talked about fellow Republicans snorting cocaine and inviting him to orgies. I don’t doubt it happened — my money’s on Matt Gaetz issuing the invite — but Cawthorn’s shock and indignation revealed him […]
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes For March 2022
17 songs this month. That’s a lot. I took another listen through the list on Sunday just to see if I should cut one or two. I couldn’t. Meaning, this is one of the best and deepest monthly gatherings of songs in quite some time. It’s that good. Hope you agree. Did I mention that […]

Well, I’m sure Coons’ army of sober centrist will ride to the rescue soon enough. Or at least they will show up in time to tell everyone that we aren’t clapping hard enough.

I Sure Hope That Madison Cawthorn Is Telling The Truth For Once. He almost certainly isn’t, but still: After Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) went on a podcast and alleged that some of his Republican colleagues in Congress are orgy-frequenting degenerates with a fondness for hard drugs, members of the House GOP had a simple response […]
Song of the Day 3/31: Bruce Willis, “Respect Yourself”
Actor Bruce Willis’ family announced yesterday that he’s retiring from acting due to aphasia, a brain condition that affects language and communication. The 67-year-old Penns Grove, N.J., native rocketed to fame in the mid-’80s in the unconventional TV dramedy “Moonlighting,” where he occasionally burst into snatches of Motown tunes, and turned heads with a rendition […]
BREAKING: Cyndie Romer Announces Candidacy To Succeed John Kowalko
I know two things: (a) she seems like a really good candidate on paper; and (b) Mike Matthews really likes her. Hard to imagine a stronger successor to Kowalko, but it’s still early. The release: Cyndie Romer Launches Campaign for the 25th Representative District (Newark, Delaware) – On Wednesday, March 30, 2022, Newark mom and […]
Song of the Day 3/30: Ray Charles, “What’d I Say”
Joe Biden ad-libbed nine words in his speech in Poland and pundits all weighed in, for or against. I’m only following the story by headlines, but it sounds like Joe didn’t think he’d said anything wrong, and it took a while to convince him to walk it back. So now every pundit is weighing in […]
TRUMP ASKS PUTIN FOR POLITICAL HELP – GOP Members of Congress Silent
Whenever you think Trump get any worse… Former President Trump called on Russian President Vladimir Putinto release dirt on President Biden’s son Hunter Biden during an interview published Tuesday. “One thing, while I’m on your show, as long as Putin now is not exactly a fan of our country, let him explain, where did — because Chris Wallacewouldn’t let me ask […]
I’m With Will.
No, this is not a blatantly naked appeal for page views (although if it works I’ll have no objection to it). I mean, of course he shouldn’t have slapped Chris Rock. However. Jada Pinkett Smith has alopecia. She has publicly spoken about the condition since 2018. It is not a joking matter. It is an […]
