Calling All Wingnuts!
From the extensive network of sources that I have (1 so far) comes this nice tip: The Delaware GOP is calling for help in the special election to replace Wayne Smith. Our own FSP posted this plea on RedState.com: “What we need more than anything is boots for election day.” …um, well for boots, he […]
Delaware is Worse than Mississippi When It Comes to “Entrepreneurial Activity”
Donviti has the scoop. While Delaware came in first in some bullshit categories, we drop the ball when it comes to supporting entrepreneurs.
Libby Jury is Strange
So I must admit that I have not spent as much time with minutia of the Libby trial. But I have heard some weird goings-on lately. First they all (save one) wore matching red shirts or something to the courthouse. Then yesterday I heard that they were wearing business attire on courtroom days since the […]
Is this the End of H.B. 4?

I have to say, Black History Month has really gotten away from me. A reminder came this morning when I heard a report about a speech billed by Louis Farrakhan as his last on NPR. Love him or hate him, I’m somewhere in between, he is influential. I know people that attended the Million Man […]
Open thread: What have they been right about?
I thought I would just throw out this question and see where people went with it. What has the Bush administration been right about? Not the Liberators moniker, not energy policy, not tax policy, probably not even about the health of the economy (Alan Greenspan said this weekend that we could be in recession by […]
If you resign can you be tried as a traitor?
The British newspaper The Times has a report today that top US generals are prepared to quit the military if they are ordered to attack Iran. It could be that the Commander-in-Chief would have to hop on his mountain bike and lead the troops to victory in Iran, Napoleon-style.
