I started a blog called Derby’s Blog over a year ago. Originally it was my intent for it to be a mix of politics and anything else that came to mind. Since then I have decided to make a new blog of only political articles. This is that blog. Welcome to Deedon’s Blog.
Derby’s Blog still exists at www.derbysblog.com. Now it is limited to the “anything else that came to mind” category.
The articles in this blog that are dated before 2010 were originally posted on Derby’s Blog.
About this blog
This was started as Derby’s Blog. Derby is a nickname I have been known by in the past. However, I feel that the seriousness of the most of the subject matter put up on Derby’s Blog since its inception deserved a more serious name than a nickname. Derby’s Blog still exists at www.derbysblog.com. It is where I’ll ramble on non-political topics. This blog will be strictly political. If you don’t really have an interest in politics, please don’t stop reading yet. What you need to realize is that no matter what interest you may or may not have in politics, politics has an interest in you!
It is the lack of interest in politics by the great majority of this nation that has allowed our government to ignore the constitution and erode our natural rights.
About me
I am a small ‘l’ libertarian – not to be confused with a liberal. There are some things in the Libertarian Party that I disagree with. My greatest political concern is the failure of the government to follow the U. S. Constitution. Many of my posts will be relating to that situation.
One of my earliest posts (perhaps it will be the first one [it was – I am updating this with the new blog]) will be taking a stand contrary to the common libertarian position on the subject. It will be titled Choice and Responsibility. I don’t expect to find anyone, libertarian, Libertarian or otherwise to agree with me all the time. Many will almost never agree with me. That’s OK. Even those who think they will never agree with anything I write will, if they read me long enough, eventually find some common ground.
