Michael in Norfolk wonders why the right-wing increasingly acts like it hates America.

He theorizes that it may be because the American ideal–one never reached but often enunciated–of freedom and liberty for all may have become a little too close to being more than a mirage on the horizon. They want to put someone in charge to turn the clock back, if not to the 1850s, at least to the 1950s.. Here’s a bit of his piece:

. . . perhaps the main complaint of those on the right is increasingly they find opposition to their infliction of their antiquated and grievance driven beliefs on the whole of society. Hence, their support of authoritarian rule where they believe others will be made subordinate to they power and control.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
