In the beginning...

I debated long and hard as to what my first foray into the blogosphere would be about, and decided I would start off with some of the reasons I decided to start my own blog...

  1. No other blog covers all the juicy stuff AND posts the comments of both sides... Dont believe me, go to Blabernews and post something positive about Nina Postupack or go to Mojo and post something nice about Hein.
  2. Most of the other bloggers are either currently elected officials, candidates for political office, wannabe's, or just have something else to promote in general.
The only thing I have to promote is my own opinion. Of course it will be somewhat slanted, but unlike the others, I welcome differing opinions and ideas. If we all shared the ideals and beliefs, this would be a pretty boring world and that would suck!

If your still reading this, your probably wondering what direction my slant is, well, I'm very much a middle of the road kind of guy that tries to make informed decisions by listening to all sides. Closing of ones mind to other views just because of party affiliation, race, religion, etc. is one of the biggest reasons the United States is going down the tubes. So much more could be done if we stopped bickering with others for those same reasons and really focused on making life better instead of who came up with the idea.

In my next posting, I will delve a little further into the issues I have with some of the other bloggers, but until then...
Thanks for stopping by and remember all comments are welcome, just please try to keep it PG and relevant (if applicable).

  1. Welcome

    Great priority in posting both sides. Allowing both sides of an issue to express their opinion is the only way all of us are going to learn from each other. That is the one thing I have kept on my blog(except cursing) no matter what. I think the readers appreciate you more for it.

  2. Thanks Jeremiah, yours is one of the few blogs that truly gets it...
    I will say right off the bat, that we have some differing opinions (for the record, I am a registered democrat), but thats one of the reasons I enjoy it!
    For those who havent been there, I strongly recommend you check out Jeremiahs blog at:

  3. If we all had the same opinions than we would not get very far in this world.

  5. Funny, I dont recall saying I was better... Different yes, but Im not one to say that Im better than anyone else.(usually, but there are a few exceptions)
    If you feel threatened by that, please forgive me for lowering your self-esteem and making your e-peen seem insignificant.
