Adriana Leela Bohm for Red Clay School Board

Vote Adriana Bohm for Red Clay School Board

I think it is time to put another thoughtful parent on the Red Clay School Board.

I think it is also time to elect another school board member who is dedicated to advocating for all kids, especially including those inside the city limits of Wilmington.

I think it is time to move beyond the discussions about who is pro-Choice and pro-Charter or anti-Choice and anti-Charter and move into the realm of seriously analyzing what has gone wrong and right with Delaware public schools (especially in Red Clay) over the past 10-15 years.

I think it is time to elect Adriana Bohm to the Red Clay School Board, so with all the might and influence of The Delaware Libertarian (snicker, snicker) I am joining the Red Clay Education Association (strange bedfellows, eh?) in wholeheartedly endorsing her candidacy.

I believe she will make a positive difference for all the kids in Red Clay, no matter which schools they attend.

Check out her website and Facebook pages, and feel free to contact her directly. I did so, and I have been more than pleased with the responses I have gotten.

Are we sure this is not a "plant"?

I'm so grateful we have you, Kilroy, and John to shake down Mid New Castle County....

Without you all; how could we know?

No, Adriana is the real thing--a parent who has been involved in Red Clay at the school level for years.

Don't forget Mike Matthews in your list ....

A Libertarian Martin Luther King Jr. Day post

In which we travel into interesting waters . . . (for a fairly long trip, so be prepared) Dr. King's 1968 book, Where do we go from here: chaos or community? , is profound in that it criticizes anti-poverty programs for their piecemeal approach, as John Schlosberg of the Center for a Stateless Society [C4SS] observes: King noted that the antipoverty programs of the time “proceeded from a premise that poverty is a consequence of multiple evils,” with separate programs each dedicated to individual issues such as education and housing. Though in his view “none of these remedies in itself is unsound,” they “all have a fatal disadvantage” of being “piecemeal,” with their implementation having “fluctuated at the whims of legislative bodies” or been “entangled in bureaucratic stalling.” The result is that “fragmentary and spasmodic reforms have failed to reach down to the profoundest needs of the poor.” Such single-issue approaches also have “another common failing — ...

More of This, Please

Or perhaps I should say, "Less of this one, please." Or how about just, "None of them. Ever again. Please....For the Love of God." Sunshine State Poll: Grayson In Trouble The latest Sunshine State/VSS poll shows controversial Democratic incumbent Alan Grayson trailing former state Senator Dan Webster by seven points, 43 percent to 36 percent. A majority of respondents -- 51 percent -- disapprove of the job that Grayson is doing. Independents have an unfavorable view of him as well, by a 36/47 margin. Grayson has ignored the conventional wisdom that a freshman should be a quiet member who carefully tends to the home fires. The latest controversy involves his " Taliban Dan " advertisement, where he explicitly compares his opponent to the Taliban, and shows a clip of Webster paraphrasing Ephesians 5:22 -- "wives, submit to your husbands." An unedited version of the clip shows that Webster was actually suggesting that husba...

A reply to Salon's R. J. Eskrow, and his 11 stupid questions about Libertarians

Posts here have been in short supply as I have been living life and trying to get a campaign off the ground. But "11 questions to see if Libertarians are hypocrites" by R. J. Eskrow, picked up at Salon , was just so freaking lame that I spent half an hour answering them. In the end (but I'll leave it to your judgment), it is not that Libertarians or Libertarian theory looks hypocritical, but that the best that can be said for Mr. Eskrow is that he doesn't have the faintest clue what he's talking about. That's ok, because even ill-informed attacks by people like this make an important point: Libertarian ideas (as opposed to Conservative ideas, which are completely different) are making a comeback as the dynamic counterpoint to "politics as usual," and so every hack you can imagine must be dragged out to refute them. Ergo: Mr. Eskrow's 11 questions, with answers: 1. Are unions, political parties, elections, and ...
