Smile Re: The Introduce Yourself thread!

Greetings and salutations. My name is Erich. I am from Colorado Springs. That doesn't mean I am a right wing nut job like so many of the people from here are lol

I am actually pretty middle of the road on most issues, but I lean slightly right. For example, I believe strongly in the right to keep and bear arms, yet I also believe strongly that gay marriage is never going to hurt anyone.

In the interest of full disclosure, I used to be the admin of a conservative board, but I gave it to someone else because my political standing is becoming more... refined? Also because my forum was overrun by people who think that anyone different than them is worthy of a racial slur. So, oh well. Let 'em have it. It seems like I have found my new online home right here

I am a political junkie, so I look forward to participating heavily in the forums!

What he said, minus the name. In fact I almost chose the name TruthTeller instead of BurningFlame, but sometimes you have to burn fire to get results.

Keep the fire blazing...yeah!

BTW...hi (to all).

Re: The Introduce Yourself thread!

Hi everyone. My name is Jessica, and I live in Iowa. I have 2 daughters, a musician boyfriend and I work in the political world. I used to work for an issue campaign up until the caucus and now I'm trying to find work here in Iowa (which has proven to be difficult).

I love a hearty debate, but I'm a full on liberal and not likely to change my mind.

I look forward to talking with everyone!

Re: The Introduce Yourself thread!

My name is Nate Peele. I am a conservative pundit, journalist, and blogger. I am looking forward to helping the people on this board understand the conservative vision and become more informed about the reasons that the Republican Party is the place to be. My blog That’s Right Nate has only been around since early March, but in that time I am close to 25,000 hits and I have found myself embroiled in Texas politics despite being from Illinois. I am 39 years old and very interested in meeting an attractive conservative woman between the ages of 21 and 28. These are some of the articles I am most proud of on my blog:

Obama Must Reach Out to Racists « That’s Right Nate
Martin Luther King Statue too Threatening « That’s Right Nate
God is Angry at Myanmar « That’s Right Nate
Conservatives Turning the Tide Around the World « That’s Right Nate

I look forward to joining in the discussions on the board and helping to educate you all.

I have no idea why you have an issue with conservatives, but my ex-wife was a moderate to liberal and that didn't work out well at all. I'm sticking to conservatives.

Re: The Introduce Yourself thread!

Conservatives? Meh. It's more actively seeking out a woman 18 years your junior.

That's only because I'm almost 40 and a lot of women my age tend to let themselves go.

I don't believe I've used it as such. My apologies if anything was interpreted that way. I did make a comment in my introduction and somebody commented on that. Subject closed.
