I would like to take a second at the beginning of this post to do a little self congratulation for DelawareLiberal. This week we had our single best day in history and we also passed the 250K hits mark. Way to go Jason and DV (and a little of me , Tom and Dr. Nick)! […]

Around the Horn Friday: Back in the Saddle Edition

Well, I have been pretty busy for the past few weeks with the new job, so I apologize to our readers for my lack of posting for the past few weeks (and you’re welcome, right-wingers).  I was inspired by Drinking Liberally last night and I hope to ride that inspiration to make more frequent posts.  […]

There was quite a bit of news this week, including Jim Vaughn stepping down from the Senate, triggering potentially 2 special elections.  Also Dave Burris has stepped down as  Sussex County Chairman.  Dave will be missed. On Vaughn, Dana and Stephen fire a parting shot at the Dixiecrat on the way out the door.  I […]

Around the Horn Friday: Don’t Make Me Tase You Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on September 21, 2007 5 Comments

This has been a fun week in blogging.  I give big kudos to Jason for Patriot Day.  Also, International Talk Like a Pirate Day was on Wednesday.  Add in a healthy serving of Protack/Levin and things get downright cheery. Let’s start with Protack and the accusation by FSP that Protack may have violated campaign finance law for […]

Around the Horn Friday: Counterfeit Disgust Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on September 14, 2007 5 Comments

Well, it has been 6 years since September 11th, 2001. Never before had I seen a united country like we were that week. And never have I seen an event perverted for political purposes on that scale either. Jason put quite a fine point on the issue this week with a post that sparked quite […]

Around the Horn Friday (err…Saturday): Freddie to the Rescue Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on September 8, 2007 48 Comments

Well this week we saw another Republican joker enter the fray. At least he did it on Leno, where jokes are acceptable. Turns out his given name is really Freddie. I Freddie Thompson do solemnly swear… Nice.  Nancy and Dana both call him out.  Frank Knotts can’t be happier. On the local scene I think […]

Around the Horn Friday: Gonzo’s Gone Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on August 31, 2007 8 Comments

I was torn this week as to whether or not to title this edition to highlight Gonzo or Craig ( I was going to go with “Homo Hokey-Pokey Edition”) but Getting rid of Gonzo is so sweet that I had to go with him. Ding dong the witch is dead! That being said, let’s start […]

Around the Horn Friday: Watermelon of Doom Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on August 24, 2007 14 Comments

As one of our commenters pointed out, this weekend is the annual Watermelon of Doom fundraiser [shitty music warning] held by Vance Phillips. At this fundraiser crabs are served, watermelon is consumed, and one lucky politician will eat the “lucky watermelon” thereby sealing his doom. Last year it was a pre-macaca George Allen. This year…Who […]

Around the Horn Friday: Outside the Perimeter Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on August 18, 2007 6 Comments

The following is a guest post from a fellow blogger that wishes to remain nameless (although if you are paying attention, I bet you can figure it out). I am deeply appreciative for the break and happy with the results. No one can take the place of Around the Horn. It is a classic. Just […]

Around the Horn Friday Delayed (Good Reason?)

Filed in Uncategorized by on August 17, 2007 1 Comment

Today was my last day at my old job, so I have spent the day cleaning up 8+ years of junk.  The end result is that my laptop has been turned in, cutting down on my access slightly.  Also, I have spent the evening preparing to talk with Hub and Dace on WILM tomorrow.  I’ll […]

Around the Horn Friday: Cranky Republicans Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on August 10, 2007 4 Comments

This was a big week on the other side of the aisle.  We thought the race for the Democratic Gubernatorial candidacy was going to be interesting.  The Republicans are doing one better.  I’ll not get too deep into it, but make yourself a nice drink and wear comfortable clothes when you go over to FSP […]

Around the Horn Friday: Return of the Geek Edition

Big shout out to Jason for covering for me a few times in the past few weeks. I wish I could say I was on vacation, but rather I was working my ass off. I probably won’t be around this weekend either, as I am headin’ down to the Virgin Festival for some sweet sounds. […]

Around the Horn Friday: Dave Burris’ Huge Head Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on July 6, 2007 5 Comments

At the end of March, I had to praise Dave Burris for his well placed call-to-arms to force Atkins resignation. I only recently started feeling clean again. But in my ATHF that week, I had to call for an end of the praise. It is that time again. Dave (along with a good deal of […]
