WDEL - Monday September 14th 1-4 pm

1150 AM WDEL's Rick Jensen is taking some well-earned R&R this week.

On Monday I will be filling in as host of The Rick Jensen Show from 1-4 pm.

I have asked my good friend Jason Scott, founder of and former contributor to Delaware Liberal, to join me as special guest co-host.

Our lead topic will be 'Liberalism : Megalomaniacal Pseudo-Ideology or Mental Illness?'

Jason will also be speaking out for the first time about the cyberspace putsch that left him a blogosphere orphan. All will be revealed.

(Of course, I kid.)

Wilmington City Councilman and rising star Steve Martelli will be joining us in the 2pm hour to talk city politics, government and the future of Wilmington.

In the latter part of the show the Fightin' Flahertys, John and Colin, will join us for a freewheeling 4-way crossfire on hot topics, local and national.

Calls are welcome and encouraged : (302) 478-9335 or 1-800-544-1150

It should be a spirited 3 hours.

Oh my...this sounds like it'll be a great show. As I will be occupied at the time, I'm hoping someone can record this and post it to the Intertubes!

I can't wait to listen! Maybe I'll even call in. Normally... umm... I don't listen to Jensen. Imagine that!

Great show, Tyler! I listened to part of your show yesterday. The discussion on Wilmington politics was interesting. It sounds like Wilmington government has become even more controlling. Any time police can come on your property and confiscate cars without any warrant, that's a authoritarian government you have there.

Comment Rescue (?) and child-related gun violence in Delaware

In my post about the idiotic over-reaction to a New Jersey 10-year-old posing with his new squirrel rifle , Dana Garrett left me this response: One waits, apparently in vain, for you to post the annual rates of children who either shoot themselves or someone else with a gun. But then you Libertarians are notoriously ambivalent to and silent about data and facts and would rather talk abstract principles and fear monger (like the government will confiscate your guns). It doesn't require any degree of subtlety to see why you are data and fact adverse. The facts indicate we have a crisis with gun violence and accidents in the USA, and Libertarians offer nothing credible to address it. Lives, even the lives of children, get sacrificed to the fetishism of liberty. That's intellectual cowardice. OK, Dana, let's talk facts. According to the Children's Defense Fund , which is itself only querying the CDCP data base, fewer than 10 children/teens were killed per year in Delaw

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
