Big shout out to Jason for doing ATHF last week. I had a birthday party for my son that kept me from having access for a long period of time. The good news is that it was indoctrination quality time for us. And now on to the news… Oh my, the Oberle story in the […]

Delaware Watch has a cool youtube video regarding HB 161. The use of video over “found audio” is damn effective. Down With Absolutes! has an open government song. Karmic Musings: “Man sues over erection drink” Kavips Documents how Castle is trying to implement the Iraqi Hydrocarbon Act (which basically nets billions for US oil companies). […]

Around the Horn Friday: Rudy Comes to DE – the serial edition.

Filed in Uncategorized by on June 15, 2007 19 Comments

Part 1: The big story Rudy Guliani came to Delaware and he was even more brazen about disgustingly slurping, sucking and gumming the 9-11 teet than I ever imagined he could be. Get a load of this… “Before Sept. 11, I only wore a flag [lapel pin] rarely,” he said. “I started wearing it every […]

Around The Horn Friday: Jack’s All In Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on June 8, 2007 16 Comments

Well the big news this week was that Jack Markell has announced that he is running for Guv’ner. This will potentially set up the best campaign that we have seen in this state since I’ve been of voting age. All over it this week was Tommywonk with the pre-announcement and then the announcement coverage. More […]

Filed in Uncategorized by on June 1, 2007 6 Comments

It has been a short week and I’m glad to see it gone. It should be a perfect weekend, so enjoy it. This week saw the airing of the first DelawareLiberal.Net radio ad. I do fear that more people have listened here than on WDEL, but hey, we’re more informative. Great work Jason on making […]

Filed in Uncategorized by on May 25, 2007 5 Comments

This has been a week of success and defeat. On Tuesday, we won our a battle in the war to get wind power in Delaware. But yesterday, Congress folded and lost a battle to end the war in Iraq. Tommywonk has been the go-to guy on the wind park. Again he proves it with his […]

Around the Horn Friday: We Put the Con in NeoCon Edition

Finally a Bush appointee is held accountable for their behavior. It can’t be easy to find a woman willing to put up with you if you are Wolfowitz, but stay legal. Good thing she didn’t want him to kill someone. The Princess Blogger Celia Cohen kicked off a debate about the most anticipated Delaware matchup […]

Around the Horn Friday: Taking the Wind Out of NRG’s Sails Edition

I have been pretty scarce this week. My corporate overlords decided that there were too many people in the office so they fixed the problem. Remind me to short our stock. Anyway, I am back with this post and hopefully I’ll be posting more next week. Last weekend, the fightin’ 41st traded in a drunk […]

Around the Horn Friday: Special Election Edition II

Filed in Uncategorized by on May 4, 2007 9 Comments

It must be a sign of how much the Mexican immigrants are influencing our country, when we have an election on Cinco de Mayo. The downside is that the bars will probably not be open until after the election. Sorry John, if you want to drink, you’ll have to head down to OCMD. Big shout […]

Around the Horn Friday: Veto Imminent Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on April 27, 2007 4 Comments

Well the legislative branch has grown some cajones. Sure the chimp is going to veto the bill that funds the war, but requires that troops be withdrawn on October 1. So be it. The best part is that Bush will get it on the anniversary of his famous “Mission Accomplished” speech. Sorry this post is […]

We’re back again with another installment of around the horn. This week has been gut-wrenching as the horror of VT came more into focus as the week progressed. It may have been the best thing for Gonzo, though, as many people just had to turn off the TV after the latest news from Blacksburg and […]
