Song of the Day 10/3: Foreigner, “Urgent”
The new White House theme song. Foreigner was among the most successful rock groups of its era, scoring 16 Top 40 hits between 1977 and 1988; nine of them reached the top 5. “Urgent” was the first single from the band’s 1981 LP “4,” which sold more than 6 million copies, while the single reached […]
Cathy Cloutier: Astonishingly Inept
No, don’t take my word for it. You simply must watch this League of Women Voters forum featuring Cathy and Kyle Evans Gay, and Sarah McBride and Steven Washington. While watching, keep in mind that, of the four, Cathy is the only one to have held elective office…since 1999. 21 years. OK, now watch the […]
DL Open Thread: Saturday, October 3, 2020
‘Who’s The Victor, Vector?’: Vexed Vector Virtually Vanquished. Make no mistake: Trump was the vector, starting in March when he renounced mask-wearing. Once you spit out the three-eyed fish, the election is over. Which is figuratively what the (arguably) human Super-Spreader has done. My favorite touch?: Biden going to Grand Rapids. I have a couple […]
Joe Biden – The Boxer
The Delaware Call has a surprising take on Joe Biden: “How about Joe?” a colleague said to me shortly after the Super Tuesday primaries, and I scoffed. “You’ve got to be kidding me,” I replied. “The most diverse pool of presidential candidates in history, and we get another old White guy.” It was only later, […]
Funny jokes about face masks while people die
Remember when Republican Matt Gaetz wore a full gas mask the floor of the house to mock people wearing masks? Hilarious.
Song of the Day 10/2: Tom Lehrer, “I Got It From Agnes”
For a hoax, this coronavirus sure gets around. This is how. Satirist Tom Lehrer, a child prodigy who graduated from Harvard at age 18, tickled the intellectual crowd with his ditties throughout the 1950s and early ’60s before retiring from public performances so he could concentrate on his academic career; he taught both mathematics and […]
Song of the Day 10/1: Mac Davis, “It’s Hard to Be Humble”
Mac Davis, who parlayed his songwriting and amiable personality into a recording career and his own TV variety show, died Tuesday at age 78. His best composition is probably “In the Ghetto,” one of several Davis songs that became hits for Elvis Presley, but he had a string of hits himself in the 1970s with […]
A Message From the Future – A Green New Deal Explainer
YouTube is beset by trolls and idiots. If you search for “Green New Deal” the first 30 results are climate change denier videos. But is you scroll down, you find this gem.
DL is Down – Provisional Open Thread
The site is broken.
We are looking into it. It is probably my fault (jason330). If the site was a car, it would be a car I got in 10 years ago, drove everyday and never checked the oil. I hope it can be saved because there is great reporting from El Som, Alby and others locked in the archives.

– Trump has Covid. Not shocked. God (or whatever) will not be mocked.
DL Open Thread: Thursday, October 1, 2020
‘Suddenly, He’s Not Half The Man He Used To Be’. Trump 2020 vs. Trump 2016. BTW, didja know that perhaps the most common side effect of snorting adderall in men is–erectile dysfunction? Now you do. ‘I Refuse To Recuse’. Amy Coney Barrett on considering cases related to the 2020 election. How Trump Is Using ‘Voter […]
Song of the Day 9/30: Third Eye Blind, “Semi-Charmed Life”
I didn’t watch the debate — masochism has its limits — but a few clips made it pretty clear that the mothafucka was cranked to the gills. Word is he snorts crushed Adderall, exactly the kind of prescription amphetamine I’d expect a wuss like Trump to do, though unlike people who actually studied in college, […]
DL Flashback: How Cathy Cloutier Literally Abandoned Gay Rights Supporters. Not Once, But TWICE
Before the hors d’oeuvres and the main course of the meal, we begin with an amuse bouche from the bouche of Cathy Cloutier. More precisely, her website: Common sense. That’s what drives my decision making in Dover. Not political party demands. Not fear. Not distracting noise from Washington, D.C. Simply, does my “yes” or “no” […]
