Deep Out of Touch Thought
I find it odd that Republicans in Congress (and some Democrats cough..Harry Reid…Cough…Tom Carper) are hoping for a big public backlash against Obama’s economic stimulus plan.
Who’s the bigger DINO? Carper or Lieberman?

Why Carney, Why Now?
Ruth Ann Minner must appoint John Carney to the position of US Senator as soon as Joe Biden steps down. Joe Biden is currently number 5 in seniority in the Senate. This is a big deal for Delaware. Joe got his pick of committee assignments, choice accommodations and a bully pulpit for his (Delaware’s) issues. […]
Carper Changes His Mind?
From anonone and Think Progress: Carper thinks Lieberman ought to face some reprisals. An interesting comment from Lieberman’s Whip Team, and since Carper isn’t going out on a limb by himself, I’d say that the prevailing thoughts on Lieberman are to take his committee from him. To which I’d say, Smart Move. (Thanks anonone!)
Call Carper and Biden.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid met with Independent/Republican Senator Joe Lieberman to tell him there will be consequences for Joe Lieberman’s many transgressions against the Democratic Party during this election season, from supporting John McCain, to his dishonest attacks against President-elect Barack Obama, to his actual campaigning for Republican candidates for Congress.

Tom Carper: No Comment on Blocking Carney
Even though Tom Carper’s Minister of Communications, Bette Phelan, probably hates my guts, and even though I, likewise, hold her boss in utter contempt, and even though I’m barely a member of the press, allowing all of that – it is her job her job to respond to me right? Even if I wasn’t writing […]

From The Hill Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), the Democratic Party’s 2000 vice presidential nominee, is leaving open the possibility of giving a keynote address on behalf of Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) at the Republican National Convention in September. From Senator Carper’s valet Communications Director Bill Ghent back in August of 2006: Jason — The statement […]
Bush/Castle Economy Tanks Except For One Sector
Credit where credit is due. Mike Castle’s programs do support one sector of the economy. The GNCPI (Giant Novelty Check Printing Index) is doing very well.
Guest Post By Senator Tom Carper
Dear Fuckface, I told you to stop calling me an a-hole, didn’t I? I’m a United State Senator you ass-wipe. You better respect my ass or you are going to be in a world of hurt. And I don’t mean you are going to find sugar in your gas tank. You have no idea how […]
Repost….Pork, pork, pork, pork…love and hate it
The federal government will likely put up $5.7 million for more than 360 acres of southern New Castle County farmland, forest and freshwater wetlands -— land that won’t be developed in the fast-growing area, state and congressional officials announced today. The land will sell for $3.24 million. The remainder of the federal funds — assuming […]
