Policy and Culture

Last weekend, I spent a day at one of my favorite Florida getaways – St. George Island, which is situated on the Gulf of Mexico, just 90 minutes from the state capital of Tallahassee. SGI, as it’s known, always has a very secluded feel to it. It’s why the area is known as Florida’s “Forgotten […]

Over the past 6 weeks, since the Deep Water Horizon oil leak, many have been pointing fingers at those they deem responsible. BP? Transocean? Halliburton? They were the companies involved in this freak accident. But as the oil keeps gushing from the sea floor without any success of plugging the leak, many have been looking […]

Throughout the tea party movement, and among many conservatives and libertarians lately, there have been cries for “state sovereignty.” Much of this has to do with a reaction to the overreach of the federal government, which has gone on since the Progressive Era in the early twentieth century and accelerated with the New Deal and […]

Two years ago, I co-authored a book with my friends Brendan Steinhauser and Steve Bierfeldt. The book, Who is the REAL Barack Obama? For the rising generation, by the rising generation, was a warning to all voters, but especially young people to not get caught up in the hype presented by the candidacy of Barack […]

I’ve been busy helping organize the first Tallahassee Tea Party, in response to the federal bailouts. So, sorry I’ve been slacking on my personal blog. But check out the Tallahasee Tea Party blog.

Crist will introduce President Barack Obama today in Fort Myers, Florida. Now, there’s nothing wrong with a Governor courteously […]

Last week was a great week for the Republican Party, as no single member of the Republican Party in the U.S. House of Representatives voted for the $850 billion spending bill (the one being touted as a “stimulus” package). They held the line and even brought over 9 Democrats with them. Their vote was bipartisan […]

No matter if you are a Florida Gator fan or not (and I’m not – although my brother did go to school there, so I did cheer for them to beat Oklahoma), you have to admire Tim Tebow. Some say, you just have to admire him because he’s a “good guy.” And I agree. But […]

Young Americans for Liberty just launched the Real Change Requires Revolution website. Here’s why: On January 20, 2009… Campuses nationwide will declare that one day of Obama is enough. It’s time for change. America is suffering from unending war, growing debt, reckless monetary policies, and a depreciating economy. Our country desires a new direction and […]
