Occam & Brad:

I’m 1/4 native American on the maternal side of my family so some of my ancestors have been here for around 30,000 years. The rest of the maternal side of my family are a mongrel mix of French Canadians and Kentucky born and bred hillbillies. Paternally, my ancestors first fled Scotland for Ireland, and then fled Ireland for the “colonies” circa 1740. I am a native son as much as anyone is and proud of it!

I don’t give the south end of a north bound horse where either of you are from originally. I don’t care if either of you are recent immigrants (as long as you came here legally). I don’t care if either of you use correct grammar as many of my many cousins don’t use correct grammar. All I expect of anyone who lives on American soil is that you are loyal to the principals of individual liberty.

Now, pardon me as I step down off the soap box.

But I might add that it was chosen rather quickly and rather frivolously, in that when I set up this blog I never expected to write much of anything in it. Here is the story.

I have a US passport, but even if I uploaded it and thus exposed myself to all sorts of harassment in my personal life, I’m sure OB would say its fake. Ultimately, there’s no way to prove ones citizenship over the internet, but for the record I’m a born and bred citizen of the good ol’ USA.

As for misunderstanding what your site is about, I apologize. But your name seems to indicate you care about foreign policy first and foremost and you seem to agree with other neo-cons like Victor Davis Hanson, so I just assumed that foreign policy was first and foremost with you.

And with that, I’ll leave it. Sorry, neo, for the hassle.

I don’t doubt that you’re in Baltimore now.

I very much doubt that you were born there. Or anywhere in the U.S.

It is not. I am very concerned with both external and internal threats to liberty. Why else would I have written 184 posts (so far) on HCR, and 666 (so far) on Obama? Note, also, 96 (so far) on liberty.
