Ack, can't take the pressure!

The very first post. Is it a make or break moment? If it's stupid and nobody likes it will this blog fail? Or conversely if it's regarded as a blogging masterpiece will I have to build a warehouse to store my collection of classic cars? I really don't give a fuck. Ok, that's not entirely true. I do care a little. I hope people read this and join in on the debate. I hope people tell me I'm wrong or correct my grammar or nit pick the way some morons do. It's ok I invite it.

So what can people expect? An open and at times non-politically correct discussion about all things. Mainly though, politics, pop culture, Wal Mart people, satire, hypocrisy, lying rat bastards, sports, really anything that comes to mind.

Some might want to know why I'm blogging. Basically because I'm egotistical and believe everyone should hear what I have to say. That doesn't mean I'm always right. But I am conscientious and have some knowledge before I blab it to the blogosphere.

Next up, who am I? As I write this I'm a 43 year old white male, small business owner, generally liberal but certainly would be considered conservative in some areas and libertarian in others. I grew up poor until middle school when my single mother clawed her way into the middle class, thanks in no small part at times to government assistance. I spent over eight years in the US Army. All of these things certainly have shaped my views of the world. I'm not a stereotypical liberal. What I am is someone who thinks and comes to his own conclusions.

So that's it. I sincerely invite all points of view. At times the discourse may get heated. If I touch a nerve, tell me intelligently why I was wrong before you tell me to "fuck off". I promise to do the same.
