Happy Labor Day – NOW, GET TO WORK!

Have a great weekend and when we all get back from wherever we are going it will be in the home stretch of the primary election.   SEPT 15th!   

Work your ass off for your primary candidate(s).  Remember rule three and four of the four Iron RULES OF DEMOCRATIC POLITICS:

  • 3) The Leadership of the Democratic Party is not the Democratic Party
  • 4) The Democratic Party is made up of the people who are working hard to fix the shitmess created by the Leadership of the Democratic Party which all too often works hand in glove with the GOP.

Song of the Day 9/7: Huey Lewis and the News, “Workin’ for a Living”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on September 7, 2020 3 Comments

For those too young to have lived through their heyday, at least as music fans, Huey Lewis and the News were sort of the Hootie and the Blowfish of their generation — upbeat, major-chord mainstream rock shorn of any rough edges, with enough melody to hum along with and enough energy to be a good-time […]

Trump’s Long History Of Disparaging Military Service.  Hey, not every draft-eligible male had a coterie of ‘diagnosis-by-spec’ doctors available to conjure up imaginary bone spurs. Or someone to take the SAT’s for him so that he could get a college deferment. How Postmaster DeJoy Laundered Campaign Contributions To Trump.  He had his employees make the […]

Song of the Day 9/6: Bob Marley and the Wailers, “Three Little Birds”

Like every other Democrat, I’m worried about how much damage Trump can do before he’s shitcanned for good, but for just this weekend, fuck it. The weather’s great, Trumpers are sinking their boats out of incompetence, and now the Turd Reich is even pissing off the military. I’m not gonna worry about a thing.

DAR Not in Bed With Shady NJ SuperPAC According to DAR Prez Zebley

DAR Not in Bed With Shady NJ SuperPAC According to DAR Prez Zebley

I asked, “what’s the connection between ‘Strengthening Our Communities’ and ‘Building Stronger Communities’?” After four days I got a response.

DAR President-Beau Zebley says:
September 5, 2020 at 11:04 pm (Edit)
There is ZERO affiliation between Strengthening Communities and the other PAC from NJ. First off we are a non-partisan PAC and have supported both sides of the aisle. Most importantly NCC races are local and the Delaware Association of Realtors does not get involved in local races. To call our Trade Association shady is wrong and somewhat defamatory. Please feel free to give me a call to discuss what we actually stand for.

That’s pissy, and he couldn’t get through it without throwing in a vague threat of legal action – but ok. Both PACS support Bruce Ennis for some reason, but I’m willing to believe that they aren’t coordinated. There is a different tone in the mailings I’ve received.

‘The Last Full Measure Of His Disgrace’.  I think that this time it’s different.  Pretty much everybody’s vote is locked in.  But, losing support from military voters and families is a big loss for Trump. And so richly deserved.  One of the most disgraceful things ever said by any President. Trump reversed himself on getting […]

Song of the Day 9/4: The Cure, “The Last Day of Summer”

Filed in Arts and Entertainment by on September 4, 2020 0 Comments

Summer unofficially ends this weekend, and if it feels weird it might be because, except for the hot weather, it hasn’t felt much like summer at all — no graduation parties, no beach vacations, no Fourth of July fireworks, a fragment of a baseball season. Still, it’s just about over now, and who better to […]

Mike Ramone Blatantly Violates Election Law. Will Anybody Take Action?

They say a picture’s worth a thousand words. I fortunately will not be writing that many.  But these pictures demonstrate blatant campaign violations by Mike Ramone. A political campaign pavilion at a public event.  These pictures are (a) from a public event to demonstrate the new voting machines, and (b) are taken right outside a […]
