Consent Of The Governed

Ok, this is my first stab at blogging. After catching a little heat on Facebook, regarding posting political "stuff", I decided to create a blog. You will have to forgive me. I was unaware that Facebook is reserved for random thoughts from Chuck-E-Cheese to late night insomniacs.

However, blogging allows us space to vent political musings with fellow junkies. I can think of no greater time in recent history for Americans to lay hold of core beliefs. Also, we need to challenge one another on those values. Ultimately,we need to hold our elected officials accountable to those principles. It is what our founding fathers called "consent of the governed."

So I hope you will journey with me as we explore our current political environment, reflect on our history, and contrast the two for a better future!
