Sorry folks, late again. Tom de Plume let me have it though....
What's got you down? Your 5th Amendment Right about to be revoked because you were arrogant and stupid? Tired of reporters beating you up for reading their email?
God Bless You, Mr. de Plume, for insisting on a level of integrity for maintaining this blog that does not rely solely on the labors of the Founding Fish's unpaid guest workers. You are a good and decent man. Personally, I believe Hammer has collapsed from exhaustion after almost single-acrid-handedly keeping the blog from being forever lost in cyberspace for so long. This is what the CW does to those loyal to him though. He tasks them and tasks them and tasks them until they drop from exhaustion. He then casts them aside once they are no longer of use to him. It's a sad but oft-repeated story yet people remain loyal to him.
Mark this day on your calendar. I am going to defend Barack Hussein Obama, our first president who tells us he was "born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia".
The incident yesterday in which he failed to return the salute of the Marine is bullshit. Presidents who actually served in the military like, I dunno, Eisenhower, didn't return the salute because he was a civilian. The practice only started with Reagan and I'm not sure he was right in doing so.
Kind of a damn shame that the guards have to salute him at all, but it goes to the idea that one salutes the office, not the office holder.
Nevertheless, there is a whole lot to despise about this rancid turd, this issue is just a figurative "shiny object" that the CW often mentions.
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.

...on the bloody backs of others...
