So I'll admit I haven't been watching the return results on the News, but getting the information though Twitter largely. But the results are depressing. I'm hearing in exit polls that "self described conservatives" went with Romney. Why? Because that is the narrative coming out of news outlets? That he is the most electable? Come on, think for yourselves, it's the Primary, for goodness sake! AND self described Tea Partiers? Can you really tell me that Romney stands for the Tea Party position more than, say, Perry?! It can only be the narrative.
Maybe I'm just crazy and bitter after nearly 4 years of Obama Socialism, and desperate for the most opposite.

Why?
I started this blog because in an election year, I just knew there were going to be times that I got so sick of the political rhetoric that I would have to vent. And it is much better for my family's health if I vent to the ether instead of at the dinner table.
I am a conservative, Presbyterian, who likes to shoot guns -- any guns, from cap pistols to Squad Automatic Weapons. I like dogs, any dogs. Especially Rottweilers, Dobermans, and Pit Bulls, because I believe treated correctly and trained well, in a loving family, they can be the best dogs in the world.
I believe in free speech, and not just the convenient kind for extremists of any ilk. I believe in the right to keep and bear arms, as it was originally written in the Consititution, not the watered down version we have to live with, although I don't advocate disobeying the laws as they stand. Change them.
I believe in the Republican form of government as the best way found so far to establish government for the people, by the people.
I believe... I have to go to work.
