The Antidote for Knee-Jerk Liberalism
It’s lonely being one of only two Republicans in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts — even if the other happens to sit fortuitously in the Governor’s Office.
Politically, Massachusetts is a one-dimensional state. Overwhelmingly democratic and predictably liberal. Every single member of the Massachusetts Congressional delegation is cut from the same basic ideological cloth, as are its two Senators.
Beacon Street Journal will offer commentary and perspective on issues from a conservative perspective as an alternative to the stifling Liberal Orthodoxy that reigns supreme in the Bay State. My goal is to deliver intelligent commentary and to have some fun.
In addition to the standard blog format, Beacon Street Journal will provide podcast segments (both audio and video) from time to time. Since I am a one-man show, the frequency of posting may vary. In order to view these you will need to download the latest version of the free QuickTime Player. Go to the Podcast page and click on the QuickTime link.
You may subscribe to the podcasts by clicking the button displayed on the podcast page of the blog. By subscribing, the latest version of the podcast will be automatically downloaded to your computer the next time your iTunes application is opened. You can download the free iTunes software here.
