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.

There's cake. Yea!
They always go on vacations where rich white folks hang out: Hawaii, Martha's Vineyard, Costa Del Sol, and now Aspen. I thought they were hip and cool? When are they gonna go to Jamaica with Puff Daddy or maybe catch a jazz festival and smoke a little gange? What black person wants to hang out with a bunch of crackers on a mountain freezing your ass off? You'd never catch Al Sharpton on a ski slope.
C'mon CW,that's a tad unfair and you know it. A 5.3 annual vacation rate seems reasonable to me for someone with so much catching up to do. I mean, given her recently-acquired sense of pride in her country, she's got 40-something years of not even realizing that, "Hey! This USA has some pretty cool places to hang out!"
