For now there really isn’t a faster way to get thoughts on the internet (besides Twitter… but who are we kidding). In light of this, Noel and I have formed a blog… rather he started one and invited me to be a contributor… (like we work for the New Yorker or something… ha, ‘Family Guy’ references) so our endless political conversations might have a chance to see the light of day… or the light of a computer screen. I’ll make one thing clear, in my early posts I will not have well referenced, well thought out essays, not until I brush up a bit in the hopes of sounding smart. For now it will be what you are accustomed to from me, observational anger at the sight of idiocy… which you don’t need do dive deep into copies of The Atlantic or The Economist to notice.
I do not want to speak too much for Noel so I won’t, but to sum up, He’s a moderate conservative, and I’m a moderate liberal (I smell a sitcom… damn it I did it again). One thing we both, very much, have in common… we hate two sided arguments. If topics as complicated as Health Care, the Economy, Foreign Policy, and blah freaking blah have two sides then you are a deluded individual who is probably influenced by a very tiny egocentric world (Glenn Beck).
Hopefully we can get this puppy off the ground… and hopefully I will have some writings that do not use works like “Freaking” and stolen ‘Family Guy’ ideas. However I am committed to comedy… that much will not change. Let us know your thoughts and ideas.
