Democrats Endorse the Democrats!!!

I read a lot of blogs and of course the newspapers. Sometimes I wonder if they realize how meaningless some of what they write really is.

Take the blog Maryland Politics Watch. They announced that Governor Martin O'Malley has endorsed the socialist-leaning pro-illegal immigration incumbents in District 18 of Montgomery County, which include State Senator Madaleno, and Delegates Carr, Gutierrez, and Waldstreicher. And O'Malley had to throw in that they are helping Maryland move forward. That's an opinion. And it's meaningless. Forward to what? That bright shiny light?

Then our friends over at Red Maryland announced that they endorse former Governor Bob Ehrlich for Governor.

Really?

How meaningful is it when your cronies endorse you? It would certainly be news if O'Malley endorsed someone other than the members of the Montgomery County District 18 team that is full of liberals. It would be meaningful if he nominated Doug Duncan for something after bullying him out of the Governor's race several years ago. It would be news if he endorsed a Republican. But endorsing your friends is not news.

And I love Red Maryland. They have been pointing out O'Malley's colossal failures for several years and have been a pulpit to promote Ehrlich in his reelection bid. Yesterday they announced that they endorse Ehrlich for Governor. I guess they just needed to be on record endorsing him, but this isn't really news.

So for some more meaningless endorsements, I give you these:

I endorse thin hot blond women in bikinis to hang around me at the beach. (red heads and brunettes will not be turned away)
I endorse thick slices of pepperoni pizza for lunch.
I endorse my girls 5th-7th grade softball team as the most awesomest softball team.
I endorse Qdoba as the best "coming soon" restaurant in Eldersburg.
I endorse Van Halen for the title of the best band of all time.
I endorse Vote No'Malley as the Best Blog of All Time.

O'Malley Versus Ehrlich in Montgomery County

If you don't read Maryland Politics Watch, they wrote an excellent article on the lack of leverage the Montgomery County elected officials have on politics in the state of Maryland.

I've often read that the Montgomery County delegation, despite being 100% liberal Democrat, is disorganized, divided, and often plays second-fiddle to the powerful and organized lunatic delegation of Baltimore City.

Can Bob Ehrlich use this to his advantage? Perhaps. It's certainly easy to point out that the politicians that have been elected by Montgomery County voters are getting walked on by the other members of the General Assembly and Governor O'Malley, as MPW has pointed out.

Definitely read their article.

Comment Censoring

I read a lot of other political blogs, both left-wing lunatic blogs and intellectual-logical-conservative blogs. I comment all the time. What a great way to get your readership up than by leaving comments on other blogs?

Anyway, most blogs have moderation of comments, which makes sense. Sometimes crazy people put some very inappropriate comments on a blog post. However, at one blog my comments are always - what's the word? Unapproved? Censored?

What blog is that? Maryland Politics Watch. It's mostly a Montgomery County-centric blog that champions socialist causes and attacks Republicans for trying to be responsible to the people and is written by Adam Pagnucco and David Lublin. They can write what they want. I'm not criticizing them for that. Some of it is very interesting. But they NEVER post my comments. NEVER. EVER. NEVER-EVER!!! So, Adam Pagnucco and David Lublin - what's the matter? Don't like a little controversy? Do you want all comments to agree with you? That's not responsible.

Follow-Up to Transgender Law

Since I wrote that post about liberals in the Maryland House of Delegates and the Maryland State Senate wanting to impose the rights of transgenders into the restrooms and locker rooms in schools, fitness, centers, and churches throughout the state, I have learned that this law is ALREADY in effect in Montgomery County, thanks to the hard work of Duchy Trachenberg.

Fortunately for the non-radical-liberals in Montgomery County, the County Council did back off on allowing transgendered men from entering women's restrooms. However, the current law written for the state, as I understand it, has no exceptions.

In addition to what I've mentioned before, there is no way to determine if someone is suffering from gender identity, or just some raving lunatic trying to get more media for his voyeurism website, a child molester, or a rapist. These people can now claim gender identity protection under Montgomery County law, provided they are not caught committing another crime. But with the law, this gives them free access to protected places, such as bathrooms and locker rooms.

This issue was also brought to the attention of Mike Adams of >"Townhall.com.
