In the past, pro-life pregnancy centers in Maryland almost became required to discourage potential clients by telling them they did not have to tell the truth. That bill was defeated.
Now, a slightly less (but still discouraging) bill may be passed today in Baltimore City that seeks to do much [...]The wacky lefties have scheduled a mock unemployment line at Sen. Mikulski's Annapolis offices today at 2PM. They are using the bad news that the unemployment rate has hit 9.8% for their own, twisted purposes.

GOVERNOR MARTIN O’MALLEY DELIVERS KEYNOTE ADDRESS BEFORE THE MARYLAND MUNICIPAL LEAGUE
O’Malley highlights Maryland’s progress as product of choice, not chance

The Anne Arundel Republican Central Committee has been tasked with a tough job, picking Senator Janet Greenip's successor. Depending on what they do, they could also have a hand in reshaping the House of Delegates, and the County Council as well.

Prez Should Heed Andrew Lloyd Weber's Warning from Across the Pond
The brit has some serious concerns about the UK chasing all of it's wealth-creators out of the country. Martin O'Malley could learn a thing or two from him as well.
Do you get all Kum-ba-ya and filled with the warm glow of "Bipartisanship"?
More likely, (like last night at Sine Die) you get a bill so screwed up that neither side likes it. Many on both sides voted against it, those who are in favor of coddling illegals, or those [...]

In perusing the media coverage of the Potomac Primary, I've noticed this:
