Where public policy meets common sense

Several years ago, I was a key person in getting a Defense of Marriage law passed in Delaware. We were on the cutting edge. Only 6 other states had passed the law and there was no federal legislation. I consider it one of my finest achievements along with my friends Rep. Buckworth, Sen. Bonini, and [...]

Tuesday was an interesting night. Occupy Dover Representatives reached out to the 9/12 Delaware Patriots at their meeting. The intial reaction from some was skeptism, but the end result seemed to be success for the fledgling group. When I get more time, I will fill in more details. The general reaction was why do these [...]

I am asking the questions that no one is supposed to ask. Is family law in Delaware reasonable? Is the family court helping families or hurting them? Are the polices we are enacting hurting the next generation? I believe there are 4 types of families. They are mainstream families, hurting families, weird families, and dangerous families. [...]

S. 978 in the U. S. Senate needs immediate opposition. The bill by Klobuchar, Cornyn, and our own Coons would create another federal felony. It would criminalize embedding videos deemed copyright infringement by redefining public performance to include 10 views in 180 days. The music industry would rue the day that such legislation passes because one [...]

If you take the time to read Senate Bill 30, you will see that it amends several sections of Delaware law pertaining to the definition of family. Its advocates say that it does not change the definition of marriage, but it undeniably reshapes the legal status of the family. SB 30 bestows the rights of [...]
