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.

Uh oh, looks like you got a troll.
Yes Hammer, I do. His/Her "name" is "DM" and they are an infamous spammer of blog comments--and for whatever reason, this troll has decided that this blog is his/her/its next target.
Blogger has a comment spam filter, but for whatever reason it does not work on this clown.
It appears that the only ways to make this go away are:
1. move to a comment moderation scheme, where you comment, blogger sends me an email, if I like the comment, I post it. I don't like this option, as I'm not always able to get to the blog in a timely manner.
2. DM just decides to stop and haunt someone else.
3. DM's mommy takes his computer away from him.
Or, we could hunt him down and brutally beat him about the head and shoulders with a blunt object until dead.
No jury would convict.
