C’Mon Delaware Episode 24 (?)…Something like that. It is in the low 20’s

O’Donnell and Urquhart – Birds Of A Feather
What is it about these two and their fixation on the phrase separation of Church and State?
Today Christine actually made a debate audience gasp.
And who can ever forget Glenn’s stellar performance…
That video never gets old, and I’m thrilled Carney is using it.
There really isn’t a difference between Glenn and Christine, and that needs to be [...]
‘Fiscal Watchdog’ Colin Bonini Owes Delaware Taxpayers $19,105. And 92 Cents.
When Colin Bonini talks about waist waste, fraud and abuse, he knows what he’s talking about. A simple look at the public record shows that Bonini has collected thousands of taxpayer dollars for work he has not performed.
I will stick today merely with what can be proven by looking at the public record.
By law, legislative [...]
Colin Bonini: The Watchdog Who Doesn’t Watch
State Auditor Tom ‘See No Evil’ Wagner and State Treasurer-Wannabe Colin Bonini are now billing themselves as Delaware’s Fiscal Watchdog Team.
Set aside that the only watching they do is of their hairlines receding and bellies expanding. And set aside the fact that the Treasurer has little to do with ‘watchdogging’, and that Bonini is [...]

More Bad Behavior from Political Thugs
Is it me or does GOP now stand for the Goon Old Party?
We read yesterday about Joe Miller (Teabag-AK) whose private security people handcuffed a reporter for no reason. And Miller made a bullshit claim that the contract with the school where the town hall meeting was being held “required” him to have private [...]
Monday’s Asshat of the Day
We’ve been entertained over the last month by our local witch/not a witch, Christine O’Donnell. Not only does she employ thugs similar to Joe Miller in Alaska, but she lies about not running negative ads.
