IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

It's been nearly 40 months since I've used this blog. My original idea for this blog was "Why not start a political blog?" Then running a Boston sports blog, writing for school, and life took up all my time. That's why not.

But I'm so concerned and outraged about the state of America these days. The country is in the hands of economic know-nothing know-it-alls. The economy is shit. Any upcoming recovery is imaginary and only forestalling the inevitable unless the fundamental structure and functioning of the economy completely changes. Barack Obama is a fraud and is Nancy Pelosi's bitch. Civil rights in California (of all places) are being denied. Sean Penn and his Uberliberal wannabe Communistas haven't been removed from their holier-than-thou pulpits.

America isn't dying, and maybe it isn't even sick. But it's developing some bad habits. 20, 30, 50, 100 years from now, we're gonna be behind the 8-ball. Maybe this blog will still exist in the future in some form, and I want to be remembered as "That obscure writer/philosopher known simply as 'Rob' who foresaw the collapse of the American Empire." Either that or "That obscure writer/philosopher whose ideas saved America."

Hope. Change. Yes, We Can.
