It's Been Awhile...

So I know I can hardly call myself a crusader for the greater Conservative good when I can't even keep up a silly blog.

Just pretend I was out crusading, and that's why I haven't been keeping up with the blog. Anyway, how many people missed it? Maybe 2, max?

In my time away from the blogosphere, I have been thoroughly engaged in politics. I did an internship with the Ohio Attorney General, Jim Petro (if you live in Ohio, you'd better vote for him to be our next Governor!) in the capacity of both his AG office and his campaign office. I return to school the chairman of his campaign in Wood County, where my University is located, as well as the state chair of his "Students for Petro" campaign. I'm looking forward to proving myself so I have a job when I graduate - but more importantly I'm looking forward to helping Mr. Petro win, because I really believe in him as both a man and a public servant. It's difficult to find "politicians" you can trust and believe in, and I've come to really trust and believe in Jim a great deal, probably more than any other politician whose campaign I've worked on. Seeing how he manages the AG's office, and getting to know him as a person has been great. I really like and trust him.

So now I'm back at school, and it's my last year. Of undergrad. Law School is merely a diversionary tactic from having to enter the "real world," although I'm certain I'll have people looking out for me when I get there. LSAT on October 1. Maybe I should be studying for that and not posting on my blog.

So I'm still trying to assess how I feel about my professors this semester. I know I like all of them. But I have to decide their levels of communism. I'll get back to you. There have already been subtle mentions of the U.S.'s imperialism in my Vietnam War class, and how George W. Bush had been against nation building but now that he's "in power" his tune has changed, in my Cold War history class. The rest of my classes have been kind of apolitical so far.

Ok, that's it for now. Godspeed
