Welcome to the arena
Here you will find my opinions about the application of political principles to the news of the day. My perspective is clearly from the conservative point of view. This is a place to express my concerns, passions, irritations, and commentary as they apply to the current political issues of the day. Political is defined loosely in this blog. There may be posts that are not strictly political, such as movie reviews, medical topics, religious commentary and thoughts on history. I hope interest will be generated by blending my thoughts with current events. I anticipate that there will be honest disagreement. I encourage feedback to my posts with the goal of achieving clarity of disagreement. I will strive to keep the conversation polite and respectful, while avoiding political correctness and maintaining tension to keep things exciting. Hopefully, friends and family will enjoy frequenting the arena for a little intellectual stimulation and good ol' fashioned debate.
I get very tired of hearing how politicians need to have bipartisanship. If you study the history of the American political system, you will find that there has never been any significant bipartisanship. There are many good reasons for this truth. A consensus for a goal is easy to obtain, improve public schools, improve the economy, etc. However, the method to achieve these goals is very controversial. Everyone has their own ideas about the best way to achieve an agreed upon goal. Therefore, there will always be political partisanship.
