Heartfelt analysis

Hello. I am contacting political bloggers around the country since I am one as well. I hope this email is not an intrusion.

If you are open to doing a link exchange, I get some pretty decent traffic.

Thank you.

Also, if you are interested, I am # 4 in the country at the bloggers choice awards

My message got chopped up

My message that start6ed with a "W" got deleted by accident.

It should have said, "While I disagree with your conclusions, I respect the intellect and passion of your analysis."

Thanks for your support. Right back @U for your work on your blog. I hope this msg gets to you. I have no other way to reply to you from my blog.

I'm not sure what a link exchange is, exactly. I'm new at this. But, what the hell! I'm in!

Those pesky conclusions. Those darned paradigms (90 yrs of liberty destroying drug laws). "The devil we know", etc. I allow the facts to lead me to my conclusions. IOW, I am led TO my conclusions, rather than BY them. Think about it. Examine the 20's prohibition experience. The enrichment of the Mafia due to alcohol prohibition.Acknowledge the beneficial effects of repeal. Then list the ways in which drug prohibition differs qualitatively from alcohol prohibition. I don't think you'll find much there. Liberty is the right to be wrong (1 of many definitions). Alcohol prohibition had the exact same results as drug prohibition does now. Although technology innovation has made the effects of prohibition much worse. We don't even have a constitutional amendment to repeal. We can just stop the madness!

I just saw this message
