Over as quick as it started

I offer to help someone, and what happens? All hell breaks loose.

Yeah, I offered to help The Lonely Conservative, after she broke her arm. I guess I am not enough of a far right winger for some of her commenters and they unleashed on me in the comments section and when I tried to defend myself; I get told to not to call her “regulars” names.

Anyhow, I basically decided that If I could not go back at the idiots who were essentially calling me a phony, because I was not slobbering Ron Paul fanatic; that I no longer wanted to write there. So, I am not writing at Lonely Conservative anymore.

This is why I never allowed any co-bloggers on my site; because it creates an Blog that seems bi-polar in nature. One person saying this and another person saying that. I admit it, I felt a little odd writing over on someone else’s blog and most likely, I will not be doing that again, ever. I am someone who believes in pragmatism, and I have never been an extreme ideologue either way. Heck, even as a “Left of center,” half-assed as that was, I found myself in big-time disagreement with the extreme left’s ideology; especially when it came to abortion and gay rights.

I also am not your “typical” Conservative. I am essentially an “inner city transplant,” I moved out of the city of Detroit in 1989. I guess my heart never really left the city. Because when I saw what was in those Ron Paul newsletters, in 2008 and again here in 2011; I really got angry over it. I have nothing against the suburbs or the white people who live in them; but I have zero use for the extreme racial bigotry that exists in some of them.

So, while I am grateful for “Mrs. B” for allowing me over there; I just do not think it was in my best interest to continue writing there. Especially, when you have racist bigots in the comment section berating you constantly. I just do not need that, at all. Hopefully she finds someone who’s more of a match to her site. Quite obviously, I was not it.

Ah well. It was fun while it lasted.

I’m back

I made back from the nap. I slept longer than I wanted. But, I am back.

Off for a nap…

Been up since 6:00 a.m. and went to be around 2 this morning. Needless to say, I’m pooped. Sleepy Yawn

…and I’ve drank enough coffee to sink a battleship. It ain’t working. So, I’m going for a nice power nap. Sleepy

back later. Wave

Change of plans

All right people, here is the deal. I realize that I said that I was done blogging and to be quite honest with you, I wish I were done writing about politics. However, I need to do something. I am getting slothful in my downtime here. Besides all that, many of you, not very many, but enough of you —- did read my writings on the other blog. Because of this and because I can promote the thing on twitter and other social outlets, I can get some sort of readership here.

Let me be clear, I will not be an echo chamber for the Republican Party establishment, nor will I play the echo chamber game for the “right wing” Blogosphere. I am not an ideological zealot. I am a pragmatist. Sometimes, my options will differ from what the rest of the blogosphere is saying; I make absolutely no apologies for that, at all.

I will try to write everything in MS-Word and try to sound like I have a thread of common sense between my ears. One of my biggest failings as a blogger was that I relied on my own ability to write things freehandedly, which made me sound like an idiot at times. However, I will not apologize for my political stances. I will offend some I cannot change that; but what I can change is the perception of me as a person.

I Hope that this will be a good exercise and that it is a profitable venture for me.

Game Over

This is not something that I actually enjoy writing. However, it is time to face facts and just do the right thing. I have been thinking about this for a long time, after writing about politics for six years; for one as a left of center populist type and then for five as a right of center populist type, it is time to hang it up and quit.

This is because I have become so cynical. The entire Tea Party movement was a horrible joke; there was never any intention by the Republican Party to heed the calls of the Tea Party for no more business as usual. The Republican Party is now running a bunch of establishment candidates; even Bachmann is not as “Tea Party” type as some people might believe. She is totally beltway as they come, believe me.

In addition, Blogging has reached the zenith of its cycle. The only people still blogging, are people who are professionals. There is just no room for traditional Conservative voices like mine anymore. I said it in my previous blog entry, Ronald Reagan Conservatism is dead and it has been replaced with the Neo-Conservative, Pro-War, Israel-First manure that pawns itself off as Conservative.

I had hoped that after the Presidency of George W. Bush that the Republican Party would once again find its mooring, as a Party that believed in defending America first and not defending other Nations first or fighting other Nation’s battles for them. Unfortunately, that was not to be and it seems now, that the Republicans are now ringing the bells of war against another sovereign nation —- Iran.

This is not to say that I hate Israel or Jews; that is a ridiculous accusation and it is not even remotely true. I just despise the idiots who say that anyone who criticizes those who are Zionists is somehow Anti-Semitic. This is a tactic of those people, and this video here, proves that. Please note: I do not agree with that video maker’s support of Palestine. I detest the Arabs as much as I do those who abuse the Semite-Card.

I was going to quit when my blog Politicalbyline.com went down; but my Mother suggested to me that I continue writing and that I shall, just not on a blog anymore. I will be submitting various editorials to some websites that I happen to enjoy reading and have wanted to contribute to for a long time. This blogging adventure was a fun one, while it lasted. I, again, have just become too cynical for it. I despise hypocrisy and I am seeing it on full display in the Republican Party.

Therefore, it is time to stop, the battle was worth it, and I fought for what I thought was right. However, there is no winning with these people. They are well funded and I am not. In addition, they will stop at nothing, until you are discredited and smeared beyond recognition. With these people, the truth is not important, only their idiotic propaganda.

For those of you who wish to remain fighting; I commend you. However, I cannot continue.

Good Night and Good Luck.

I’m still around…..

I just have not been in much of a mood to write anything. I guess you could say that the reality of losing my other blog and being remanded to the confines of a sucky BlogSpot blog has finally set in.

I really should not say that though; PoliticalByline.com had ran its course, it was like a sitcom really, and I had just felt that it had ran its course. Someday, I might put the thing back up as an archive to what I really did, which I felt was quite a bit of work, for little or no pay; but I digress. The problem was, with that blog, my enemies or my critics were defining me and I just grew tired of that.

I have been really trying to put my nose back in the “good book,” that being the Bible. I have really been trying to stick to a daily reading discipline. Heck, I have a audio DVD of Alexander Scorby and I love reading along with him. I will be honest though, I have been failing miserably at reading everyday. Sad smile I just cannot bring myself to do it; and when I want to do it, something else comes up. I know, it is no excuse; but right now, my head is just not into it. it is kind of like this blog and politics, I know I should be writing at least something about what is going on politically now; but, my head is just not into it at all. I could really care less anymore about any of it. The Republican Party, is going to put into the general election a establishment beltway seasoned person and the GOP is going to lose in 2012 and we’ll have four more years of Obama to kick around. Which has become a bit of a cottage industry for the right.

Further more, I just do not believe what I have to say about politics really matters anymore; and my site numbers prove that; nobody gives two flips about what I have to say. Which is why I really am not into the blogging thing anymore. I admit it, I rode a way for a while and now that little fake period, that being the tea-party, is over; and we’re back to business as usual in the beltway.

So, there you are; where I am at, and where my head is, as of late. It isn’t in politics, that is for sure.

New settings in comments section

I guess the trolls and stalkers have discovered my new site. So, until further notice, the comments section is set as follows:

No Anonymous Comments
You have to have a registered account somewhere. (See comments section)

I won’t moderate stuff, because I do believe in freedom of speech; but I do not believe in the right to stalk me anonymously.

For what it is worth; the comment, I believe, came from some of the people on the right, who dislike me.

Here come the trolls

I get this in the comments section.

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post “A message of goodwill“:
Hey cocksmoker, what happened to your website? Mommy quit giving you the money to pay the host? Tell all these peeps about how you live in mommys basement and have to do drugs cuz you are a tard.

Nice, just when I try being nice to the other side, this crap pops up. Guess I’ll have to lock down the comments section.

Why I see it, you don’t have the balls to say who you are, then you are not worth a crap in my book. Cowardly pricks.

For the record, this is what happened to my old site.

Meh

Just not really in the mood. Politics and News are slow and what is out there; is water from the sewer. I just am not in the mood to write about it or anything else. Plus too, I checked, one lousy hit on this silly thing. Geez. At least with the old blog, I had a searcher or two, not here.

Why I would just as soon quit, than screw around with this stupid stuff anymore. Baring teeth smile

Removed link on blog

Tonight I removed an link and a small banner image from the blog. It went to a website called The Republic Broadcasting Network. You can read more about them here.

Luckily, I had the little graphic and it pointed to the service that was hosting the image and not the site itself. Embarrassed smile

Mainly the reason why I removed it, is what I discovered at the bottom of the site:

Click the pic to make bigger!

Needless to say, I do not support that crap. I also do not remember seeing that crap, before they redesigned their site. So, no linkie from me. Some people accused News with Views of being of the same mindset. I have yet to see it. So, no more linkie from me to them. Steaming mad

Just letting everyone know. Winking smile
