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.

Yup, Rick Santorum as the Republican candidate in 2012. Let's just give Barry Dunham another 4 years and save ourselves the hassle of an election.
I guess Obama gave hope to the hopeless.
Yes but the name sounds very Roman. Put Lucius Flavius Santorum on the ballot and he's a lock.
Better yet Mr. Hammer, go to urbandictionary.com to find their definition of "santorum".
Who the hell is "their"? And "urban" implies black. I don't think Santorum is going to get many black votes; after all he's a Republican and blacks almost invariably stay on the Democrat plantation. Therefore why would I give a flying -uck what the urbandictionary.com says or doesn't say.
Hammer, don't be such a know it all phallus. Just look. It is FUNNY!

Sorry CW, it's early. I will look now.
Oh yeah that was hilarious! The byproducts of sodomy actually have names. So enlightening, thank you.
All part of a campaign by Dan Savage to coin the term....details here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santorum_(sexual_neologism)
