Introduction

This blog is going to be a left-wing, politically-oriented blog. The topics will be federal, state and local in nature, for the most part. There will be some discussion of international politics, but even many of those will focus on the role of the US in the world. It's kind of hard to ignore the impact that the US has on the world when you discuss international politics, anyhow.

All that said, I'm 33, a left-wing, non-straight individual from a "red state" (Ohio). It's not an easy position to be in, but there are worse, too. At least I'm white, which is something of an advantage.

So, without further ado, that is my brief introduction, and when you next see a post from me, you can be assured that it will be political in nature. *grins*
