Understanding the Red States
Well, there's lot's of talk about the red states since
the election. Mostly very negative stuff coming from
the Hollywood and left leaning types. But it is worth
trying to understand. I have been toying around with
trying to blog some on why I take the positions I do.
I don't want to be inflammatory any more than I have. Just
the little bit I got here on my blog entry from last week as well
as an e-mail conversation I had has been enough to make me more
cautious. Not that I am ashamed of what I believe, it's just
that I want to be thoughtful and not reactionary. A little
bit of objective analysis and introspection might be useful
for our liberal friends to see.
My friend Jon Barlow posted this excellent blog on
the whole
values voting thing and the morality of the left last weekend. Also
pointed out this
good article by David Brooks today
(use newspaperreader, 123456 to log in) about his book on exurbs. Stay tuned,
I might have more to blog soon...
