Welcome

Welcome all,

This is my new blog, its a much more refined piece of work than my livejournal, which I consider the notepad for my thoughts. This is more about my ideas about the world, things I have a problem with, things I want to change, etc. I'm not going to claim to be an expert on anything, in fact I would consider myself pretty mediocre at a lot of things. I'm a History major with a minor in International Studies at the University of Washington and that is my background for how I view the world. I would most readily describe my politics as moderately conservative, but I find merit in almost every political view. My biggest problems stem from the sale of ideas to the American public as well as their eventual implementation. There needs to be a certain amount of transparency about which government goes about their business, instead of some guise of misguided ideology. So please, anything I write on here is subject to your criticism and views, I want you to challenge me, tell me I'm wrong. At the end of the day I hope you enjoy what it is I have to say, or at the very least, have challenged you to view the world a little more critically.

Mr. P.
