Delaware Talk Radio - Today is the Launch

This exciting new media sensation in Delaware launches today.

My good friend Mike Matthews asked me to join him for the inaugural editions of the Mike Matthews Show - Down with Absolutes. I am honored. I love working with Mike. During my hosting days on WDEL, Mike was my favorite guest. He is hilarious and always titillating with his irreverent views of all things political.

We go on from 3-5 this afternoon. Stream it right here.

Rounding out the DTR crew is also the wonderful vivacious and refreshingly-libertarian Maria Evans, and of course the anchors and founders Randy Nelson and Dave Burris.

These are some very very smart, connected, politically-savvy, and entertaining people who will make DTR the new Delaware media powerhouse.

DTR will be a constant whirlwind of political players, personalities, politicians, and pundits bringing issues, insights, access, and news - local and national.

Just check out their guests for this week :

Other confirmed Week 1 guests include:

Bob Cusack, Managing Editor of The Hill
Neil Newhouse, Leading Republican Pollster (NBC News/WSJ Poll)
Michelle Taylor, President, United Way of Delaware
Jack Markell, Democratic Candidate for Governor
Charlie Copeland, Republican Candidate for Lt. Governor
State Senator Karen Peterson (D-Stanton)
State Senator Gary Simpson (R-Milford)
Jim Lanard, Spokesperson, Bluewater Wind

Comment Rescue (?) and child-related gun violence in Delaware

In my post about the idiotic over-reaction to a New Jersey 10-year-old posing with his new squirrel rifle , Dana Garrett left me this response: One waits, apparently in vain, for you to post the annual rates of children who either shoot themselves or someone else with a gun. But then you Libertarians are notoriously ambivalent to and silent about data and facts and would rather talk abstract principles and fear monger (like the government will confiscate your guns). It doesn't require any degree of subtlety to see why you are data and fact adverse. The facts indicate we have a crisis with gun violence and accidents in the USA, and Libertarians offer nothing credible to address it. Lives, even the lives of children, get sacrificed to the fetishism of liberty. That's intellectual cowardice. OK, Dana, let's talk facts. According to the Children's Defense Fund , which is itself only querying the CDCP data base, fewer than 10 children/teens were killed per year in Delaw

The Obligatory Libertarian Tax Day Post

The most disturbing factoid that I learned on Tax Day was that the average American must now spend a full twenty-four hours filling out tax forms. That's three work days. Or, think of it this way: if you had to put in two hours per night after dinner to finish your taxes, that's two weeks (with Sundays off). I saw a talking head economics professor on some Philly TV channel pontificating about how Americans procrastinate. He was laughing. The IRS guy they interviewed actually said, "Tick, tick, tick." You have to wonder if Governor Ruth Ann Minner and her cohorts put in twenty-four hours pondering whether or not to give Kraft Foods $708,000 of our State taxes while demanding that school districts return $8-10 million each?

New Warfare: I started my posts with a discussion.....

.....on Unrestricted warfare . The US Air force Institute for National Security Studies have developed a reasonable systems approach to deter non-state violent actors who they label as NSVA's. It is an exceptionally important report if we want to deter violent extremism and other potential violent actors that could threaten this nation and its security. It is THE report our political officials should be listening to to shape policy so that we do not become excessive in using force against those who do not agree with policy and dispute it with reason and normal non-violent civil disobedience. This report, should be carefully read by everyone really concerned with protecting civil liberties while deterring violent terrorism and I recommend if you are a professional you send your recommendations via e-mail at the link above so that either 1.) additional safeguards to civil liberties are included, or 2.) additional viable strategies can be used. Finally, one can only hope that politici
