A Forward

Why start a blog? I mean there must be another hundred million people out there like me who think they have something important to say. Wait a minute, make that about 6 billion people who think they have something important to say. So why write a blog? Why post my writings and opinions on the internet where they have to compete with so many others?

I write because above all I am disturbed about the direction the United States is taking politically and socially. We were a free country, however I question if we still are a free nation. And if we still can be considered a free nation, how much longer will we enjoy that blessing if current political and social trends continue? I write to share those concerns with others and hopefully get them to at least consider where their country is and where they want it to go.
I also write to try and win people over to my point of view. I am libertarian in my ideas about government, I am Christian in my morallity, and I am a strict constructionist in regards to the constitution.

I must speak up and speak out. I cannot let the policies and ideologies espoused by our current president and his cronies go unchallenged.

With that in mind, please enjoy the material presented here. If you get nothing else out of these essays, rants, and ramblings, please get this: Think for yourself and consider all arguments. Make informed decision based upon the truth and be willing to stand by your convictions.
