A few words...

 For my first blog post, I suppose an introduction of myself is in order and my intent with this blog.

My name is Tim and I am a middle aged, middle class father of two and a Christian. My education level, officially, is some college; however, I am a firm believer in self-education and continuing education. 

What I have seen in our political environment disturbs me and I will be using this blog to post my thoughts and express what I perceive to be a better path forward. My intent is to use topics and occurances that we experience today and apply historical perspective to these things in hopes of aiding in navigation of a better path. My thoughts are mine alone, but some reading may find common ground and through that we come to a consensus for a path forward. I will share stories, articles, and books that I find to be relevant to a better path forward.

Thank you for your time. Together and with reason, we can move toward a better path.

Unfit

  Unfit      When will the Democratic National Party realize that Joe Biden is unfit and will do nothing but harm, at a minimum his reputation and theirs, the government and the country? At what point does the DNC say to themselves, "Enough is Enough. We need someone else." At what point will his own administration reach out to ( paid link )  congress   invoking the  25th Amendment?  I'm sure the latter question will not be answered given the nearing election and the free-for-all that is currently allowed in the White House. Of course, we've spent the last couple hundred years ignoring the ( paid link )  Constitution.

Certain things can and will be used out of context and in the political world, it is almost unceasing and some people are re...
