Today’s blog is to introduce myself to the readers of thepartisandialogues.com. I’m going to start linking my blog to that, because from a quick scan of the comments, they are seriously in need of a liberal point of view.
The blog section seems to be totally dominated by some guy who is convinced that the Mexicans are taking over the United States. I don’t want to engage him in an argument about who gets what job, or why Mexicans have a higher birth rate (maybe they’re getting laid more often?) or the most effective method of sealing the border.
I like Mexicans. I like the food, I like the language and, as people who I would like to have a conversation with in a bar, I’d choose a Mexican over a teabagger any day. If they take over, it would be an improvement.
The loose thread section is infested with people who use terms like Obummer and Liberal Media and Rush is awesome. Coming from Wonkette and Huffpo, I am not used to that. So, they need my input and, since I didn’t see anything about it being officially a conservative site, and also since they let me say fuck and shit, I’m staying.
About me: I am married to a woman who is far too good for me, have two kids, and teach English as a 2nd language in Prague.
About my political views: Yes, 9/11 was an inside job. Republicans are evil. Marijuana is a gift from god, but that’s just a figure of speech, because I don’t believe in God. Green is good, but it’s complicated. Space exploration is good, privatization thereof maybe. Of course gay people should be allowed to get married. Government should stay out of religion, sports and popular culture. The death penalty is wrong. Guns kill people. The internet should never be censored. There’s more, I’ve got an opinion on just about any subject, and I’ll get to them all eventually.
I will try to keep my writing entertaining, so that it won’t be too horrible reading it even if you think my opinions are idiotic.
