Searching without sight Attempting to peer beyond the veil Blinded by the light Deafened by the wail Paralyzed at the forks Presented in the road Losing my direction Losing my abode Something rages within Pushing forward even still And so I begin again I submit to the will It pushes me ever on In spite …
S.S. Perdito
S.S. Perdito Where did you go When the storm sent winds rending too and fro Your glorious vessel tossed here and there Bending, creaking, and thrown by retching air You, her captain, stood statuesque upon the frame Sure footed , eyes a lit in cool blue flame Stalwart and proud, focused on the tirade One …
Life in Captivity
I know its been a while since I have posted, which is directly related to the following post. I seemed to have locked myself away from the more intellectual and quizzical parts of my mind in an act of self-preservation. I found that contrary to my intuition, blogging about my worries and concerns in the world actually …
Wake up and smell the Red!
Joe Biden Sees 'No Legal Reason' Why We Can't Tax Violent Video Games I’m not exactly sure why a closed door meeting about gun legislation would be held with Joe Biden and 20 religious representatives, unless we’re finally admitting that people love guns so fervently in the US, it is a kind of religion here …
Murdering Logic without a Gun!
I was desperately attempting to avoid chiming in on the topic of gun control as I feel that I have nothing new to bring to the table on this subject. Yet, here I am prepared to draw at high noon on the idiocy behind the arguments used by gun control advocates and lobbyists. I have yet to …

It was presented in a perfectly wrapped box with fancy words like compromise and strung with a politically proper pink bow sitting atop. …

The Paradox that is the GOP
The GOP is being held back by a large group of Moralists that believe the government must establish guidelines, laws, and regulation to create "social order." Webster defines a moralist as “one concerned with regulating the morals of others.” This goes directly against the true Federalist mentality that the Republican Party prides itself on.
