About Me: Not a Democrat. Not a Republican. Not a liberal. Not a conservative. A swing voter. My politics are eclectic. I have no ideological agenda and feel free to look at each issue afresh and listen to all sides before coming up with a position. I believe in sustainability: environmentally, fiscally, and in our trade deficit. The same mentality that makes me an environmentalist also makes me a fiscal conservative.

Hate crime or typical college prank? I don't think ther's general agreement on that, so the jury should have given him the benefit of the doubt. Two months in jail would be sufficient. But going on fr more »
