And now for some oldfashioned commentary.
Dear readers, have you, too, noticed an increasing difficulty in distinguishing between the fringe of society, and serious ravel out across middle America? I believe that I can identify the tracks of some of the worst offenders, whose dirty, hobnailed boots are causing such extreme wear and tear to our social fabric. They are wayward pseudo-educators, politicians, journalists, and religionists whose wanton vandalism of American society should be considered a clear and present danger, but unfortunately is ignored or even approved of by a very significant part of our fellow Americans.
My objective in this website is to build barriers to that damaging traffic, or at least provide a floor mat to brush off the worst dirt before it can be ground in. My only tools are true history as I know it, sensible commentary as I see it, and my own testimony. They are little enough against the onslaught, but it is important to me, a proud American, father, and grandfather, to try. Please, draw up a chair and hear me out.
Thanks for visiting,
Bill
