POLITICS | by scott
http://bluecontrarian.blogspot.com
Politics, current affairs and international relations from a classical liberal perspective. Raucous, irreverant, combative and at times brutal. A slice of the old school, of how politics used to be, before the ad men and the image makers moved in.

It's always good to see forceful and informed opinions and insight on Western Civilization, international affairs, and politics from our cousins across the pond. I enjoy learning the geopolitical and world view perspectives from Brits, and Europeans. You certainly get that here. Any better quality and you would have to pay for a subscription.
