The meaning of this blog began to suffice a grade requirement for my upper division Political Science class at UC Irvine. I wish to continue this endeavor but with a new found goal which encapsulates both a good grade as well as a form of basic database for young minds to see the modern conservative geniuses that have been kept behind the liberal curtain.
This new goal came to me in a most distressing of situations when the classroom of 189 students that I am enrolled with were asked to raise their hands if they were conservative or liberal. I was sadly one of two students that raised his hand attributing oneself to the conservative ideology. I say ideology not because that is how I perceive my political bias but that is how nearly all conservatives, or republicans for that matter, view the importance of conservatism in their own life. The great historian of conservative values, Russell Kirk, tells us that the ideals of conservatism cannot be an ideal or else they are meaningless. Conservatism is a way of life. It is a molding of the six canons of conservative thought into every action in our life.
I detest leaving you on the end of such a branch as these last few sentences, but sadly my blog is graded partly on the number of posts I have completed.

It is obvious, however, that over the course of their lifetime a large portion of that class will end up being Republicans.
yes I do agree, my friend, that wisdom tends to come with age.
