All Political Views Welcome

I have been meaning to mention this for weeks now... I finally caved into my own curiosity and joined a website called "Louisville Mojo." I had been told by some Liberal friends that I would hate it because everyone is so screamingly anti-Conservative there. However, driven by an insatiable need to know, I joined (heck, it's free!) and created a very obviously Conservative profile. Can it get more obvious than "Conservachick?" ;)

What I've found is that we Conservatives are severely stereotyped among the Louisville Lib crowd. It was a bit shocking at first -- I got tons of hate mail and "drive-by" emails slamming the president (who I do disagree with on some issues) and Christianity (funny because I'm not a Christian). Interesting, no? I think slowly I'm making some headway toward helping the more curious and intellectual Liberals on this site understand the traditional version of Conservatism. It feels kind of good, actually!

I joined a "Mojo Live" group called "All Political Views Welcome" and it has, indeed, become a staple of my day now. The Liberals and the Conservatives in this group are not only curious about each other but they are willing to stick with a discussion until we reach at least a point of enlightenment simply by hearing each other out. It's amazing. It's as if both sides are saying the same things but arguing the point from totally different angles. I am grateful to have found this group of people. All of them are playing a part in restoring my faith in humanity regardless of partisanship.

A few of us actually met up at a pizza joint for meet each other in person a few weeks ago. It was a blast. I brought along the Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots to settle any political disputes we had. It was a blast! Here are the pictures from that meet-up:

Busker on the "Left"


Sly and Buddha on the "Right"


Red State versus Blue State or Red Rocker versus Blue Bomber?


Now THIS is how differences should be settled!


Oh no! Red Rocker's got a glass jaw!

Friday Night with Hugh and Friends

The consummate Conservative host, Hugh Hewitt, and yours truly! Shameless of me to post this, I know; however, I'm too jazzed to care. :-p What a wonderful way to spend a Friday night! After an hour or so wandering through some of the exhibits at the Frazier Historical Arms Museum, I then got to spend three hours with Hugh Hewitt and 599 other fans of his show. I absolutely MUST say that not only was Hugh wonderful and the live show very entertaining, but his fans are absolutely the nicest people! I've seen other radio talk show s done live and mingled with fans of those shows. Hugh Hewitt's fans are the nicest, most down to earth, friendly people I've ever met. It's quite a credit to Hugh that he draws such a fan base. If you haven't been to the Frazier Historical Arms Museum here in Louisville, it's a must-see. The museum shows an amazing artistry with the exhibits and places them in the context of the times in a very entertaining and educationa

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste
