Delawaredem back in at Delawareliberal-jason out?

Delawaredem, after quitting yesterday, now has a new post up at Delawareliberal.

There is no other comment on the blog regarding yesterday's firings, quittings, and general disagreement.

Meanwhile, in my comments section on the previous post, this monring I have received this anonymous comment from someone claiming to be jason [and it does sound like him, but I am waiting for confirmation]:

For the record, I am no longer with DelawareLiberal. Some team members and I had significant differences about the blog's direction and I decided that it was probably time for me to move on.

It is a great blog and they are great bloggers and great friends who will continue to have a real impact in Delaware for a long time.

Today there is even less legitimate "4th estate" media in Delaware than when I started commenting on blogs eight years ago. So blogs like this one and DelawareLiberal are more imporant than ever.

donviti's account still appears to be gone.

Pretending nothing happened is not going to be an effective strategy, guys.

RSmitty Really Hates Thursdays When The DE Blogosphere Is Shredding Apart said…
WTF. If he did quit, I certainly hope it was his own doing and not a force-out. He owns the damn thing. Contrast to Burris who happily walked off totally on his own accord (as did I, but I didn't own it, like Burris did or Jason did/does).

Damn it, I knew my selfish act of leaving would cause them to unravel. They couldn't take the absence of my counter-balance. ;-)

Yeah, right!

Well, I attempted to comment on it and managed to get sucked up into spam. I can only wonder how their spam filter is currently set up to catch! Anywho, DDem responded that my comment will remain in spam until this evening, after a post on the subject is released.

I'll try to be open minded.

Of course, if this is all orchestrated, then I don't know if I'll enjoy it or be pissed for wating my time with it.

I dunno, I believe this about as much as I believed Jason's last seven resignations from blogging or that DelDem really believes my party affiliation has earned me a ciggy and blindfold or that these blogospheric personality melodramas amount to roughly a hoot in hell.

Jason - you're always welcome here, to the extent you can embrace liberty against the creeping utopian collectivism and partisan bomb-throwing of your former blog. Come to the light!

TPN,

Thanks for putting out the welcome mat. How about we compromise and I only comment to endorse creepy utopian collectivism and parisian bon bon-throwing?

LOL, Jason!

But you can't seriously be leaving the scene.

I have no doubt Steve would be as glad as me to have you do guest opposing view posts anytime you like, and I mean that seriously.

We need to all get together at a Drinking Libertarianly and sort all this nonsense out.

I blame myself for starting this trend.

Seriously, though, I would be interested in reading a juicy tell-all describing the sordid behind-the-scenes goings-on at DL that precipitated this drama fest.

Jason, I'm sure your buddies here at DelLibertarian would enjoy a guest post on the topic!!!

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...
