I’m Local

I wrote about it, researched it, and carried through with the plan. As of about two hours ago, I am the newest member of my county Republican Executive Committee. I write this blog because I enjoy it, and because I’m foolish enough to believe that I have something worthwhile to share with the people who … Continue reading

Neutering The Net

Post Partisan? Yeah, Right.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. Martin Luther King, Jr. The election of President Barack Obama was supposed to usher in a new post-racial, post-partisan era. … Continue reading
