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.

. . . and by the way, the jailed Kentucky clerk is a Democrat!
For the sake of the nation, the next president and attorney general had better sweep up every single one of those involved in the aforementioned government employee crimes and prosecute them fully. We have a government that has made itself fully unaccountable--and I blame the GoP for ignoring their Constitutional authorities (and oaths of office) for allowing it--and we've grown a generation of government employees that fully believe they can do as they please. That has to turn around or we are done. Putting the perpetrators of your list of government wrongdoings will send a message to the rest of those tyrannical criminals-in-waiting that they'd better damned well watch their asses.
