Like Avis, we get harder, or is that we try harder?

At any rate, you have to be of a certain age to remember the old Hertz-Avis rivalry.

We Try Harder versus the People falling out of the air into their rental car.

Not that we expect them to take any more notice than Hertz did, but in Blognet News' current rating of Delaware political blogs we find this interesting stat:

Blogs ranked by BNN Influence

1. Delaware Liberal
2. Delaware Libertarian

Blogs ranked by Authority Measures

1. The Colossus of Rhodey
2. Delaware Liberal
3. Delaware Libertarian

These rating fluctuate rapidly, depending on posts and traffic and the whims of a particular week. You can also follow which blogs lead in the Conservative or Liberal categories.

So for truth-in-advertisig purposes you can check the new widget down along the left side of the page, where we'll keep our number as it rises or falls.

Thanks, Tyler, Brian, and Mat--but especially thanks to all of you who stop by on a regular basis and link when you find something interesting.

Nice! I imagine there are a lot of folks out there like me who read your posts frequently but rarely comment; usually because you've said all there needs to be said.

It can't have effect in fact, that is exactly what I suppose.

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

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
