The Conservative Wahoo
The Blog: A compendium of thoughts on politics, world affairs, economics, pop culture and social issues, from the center right perspective of me--Bryan McGrath--a University of Virginia graduate who spent a career in the world's greatest Navy keeping my mouth shut about politics and social issues (ok, publicly keeping it shut). Those days are over! Pull up a chair and chime in where you will. Keep it clean, civil, concise and relevant.
The Fish: The fish is a "coat of arms" for the blog, symbolizing three formative influences in the life of the blog founder. The first is his experience at the University of Virginia--symbolized most importantly by the fish itself, or a caricature of a "Wahoo", the fish we have acquired as an informal nickname. Additionally there is the sword, the sword of a Cavalier. It is not wielded in a threatening manner, as this is a civil blog. But it is there, should it be needed. Thirdly, there is the influence of 21 years in the Navy--symbolized by the anchor on the Wahoo's fin (and again, the sword) . Finally, there is the bowler, tuxedo, and monocle, symbols of a refined, intellectual conservatism, or what I seek to encourage here.
The Policy: I take FULL responsibility for what I write. I will not be held responsible for the content of my comments section--as long as it is civil and passes my own inscrutable sniff tests, it will appear. If the comment offends you, that is on you.

Hey man, the old hag was just giving her opinion. Say what you will but that's what she thinks.
You know this old ragheaded bitch goes back at least as far as JFK? When is she gonna die?
"One day you'll write something that is simply amazing--deep, literate, insightful--often very controversial. Next day, it's some over the top ridiculousness that you know damn well I'm gonna delete. If I had ANY confidence that you could be consistent, I'd ask you in in a heartbeat." -Point proven huh?
Krishna H. Vishnu, get off my ass. I was just giving CW the old wind-up. NavyAustin sounds like a wonderful human-being and I wish him every success (sounds like an exNavy officer, Gee that's odd).
Beside if CW turned me loose on this blog he would need a check up from the neck up. My God the carnage. Inside of a week we'd all be on a list somewhere.
