What the Government Shutdown Really Means
There has so much back and forth about what the shutdown of the Federal government really means, that I figured that as someone who stands to be furloughed, I would add in my two cents. Besides the cancellation of the Cherry Blossom Parade, the shuttering of the Smithsonian, and the closing of parks and monuments, […]
Government Shutdown Is Coming!
It looks like a government shutdown is coming, even if a deal is reached.
Update on Sussex County GOP
It seems that the Ron Sams resignation is music to the ears of the teabaggers. But these folks aren’t done. Last week, Cape School Board member and 9/12 “Patriot” Sandi Minard, published a letter calling Sams a liar concerning the need to move the February and March meetings of the Sussex GOP. Our friends at […]
Sheriff Jeff Wants to Be Supercop
Today was the day that Sussex County Sheriff Jeff “Supercop” Christopher (Teabag-Sussex) made his initial presentation to the County Council. Prior to this morning’s meeting, Supercop had never spoken to the Council, although he has accused them in emails to the 9/12 “Patriots” of blocking his agenda. I knew the day would start off well […]

Socialized Health Care Before There Was Socialism
Who would have thought that the Founding Fathers were a bunch of Socialists! Teabaggers around the country are eating crow tonight. They just found out that our Founding Fathers, those gentlemen who teabaggers place on a pedestal and worship every night before going to sleep, mandated that private citizens purchase health insurance. In July of […]
The Constitution Stunt
The new Republican House has already decided that it’s first stunt is to read the Constitution out loud. The Republicans want to convince us that they are the one, true party of the Constitution. I agree with Greg Sargent’s take – that we should use this as an opportunity to talk about the Constitution instead […]
New GOP House Leaders Dipping the Constitution in Tea
It appears that the new GOP House majority is taking the Constitution “seriously.” I think we can now officially call the GOP the Teapublican Party. At the start of every Congress, each House must adopt rules which will govern how it will operate for the next two years. We’ve already heard that the Democrats in […]

Pre-Chanukah Asshats of the Day
So I’m sitting here chilling to some Celia Cruz (Azucar!) and thought, hey, I haven’t honored anyone lately with an asshat award. And today we have two winners. Our first winner is Eugene Delgaudio, a Republican representing Sterling on the Loudoun County (VA) Board of Supervisors. I think we all read about Pandora’s experience with […]
