Maryland Slots

Published October 21, 2008 in Maryland. 7 Comments

Support is 2-1 in favor of slots here in Maryland, especially with the economy souring. I’ve been in favor for some time, but I tend to be in favor of vices like gambling being legal for adults.

Right Wing Blogs: Obama Is Pulling Out Of Virginia! Reality: Um, No.

Published September 16, 2008 in Barack Obama, Conservatives, Maryland and Virginia. 21 Comments

Purple Line: Please, God, Make It Happen

Published May 29, 2008 in D.C. and Maryland. 9 Comments

Our subway system here is pretty good, but one of the problems is that if I want to go from my part of Maryland - Takoma Park/Silver Spring to somewhere like Bethesda, I have to go through Washington D.C. to do it. This makes no sense. By auto that’s about 15 minutes drive, but because [...]
