A Blog by Some Bloggers

We the People is a new group blog being launched by Donnie Hall of Bejus Pundit, some guy named Jack, and quite possibly some other people. As I understand it, it’s the type of blog Benjamin Franklin and James Madison would have if the Internet had been around in those days.

    Yes, that’s what we hope to achieve, a forum for real debate, not pointless name calling. Hopefully, once we’re up and on our feet, we can at least make poeple think.

    By the way, I’m the guy named “Jack” that Donnie (the Bejus Pundit) is always linking to. My not so well-known blog is named Random Fate.

    😉

    And why on earth should this blog be different?

    Hopefully, once we’re up and on our feet, we can at least make poeple think.

    Here is where I think you are just hoping for too much.

    Unless “NO WAR FOR OIL” and “Bush was AWOL” is genuine thought I would not hold my breath.

    Perhaps I am being overly cynical but after this last week of news I’m reminded of that George Bernard Shaw quote.

    “The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it”

    Good luck with it. All the good things man has created have been in spite of the nay sayers.

    Paul, I am very familiar with that quote by Shaw. I have used it on many occasions. I am very cynical, but that does not prevent me from trying. Not trying is admitting defeat, and I will not go down without a fight.

    Thanks for the good wishes.

    (my Random Fate domain name is down temporarily, my apologies, I hope to have it up again by the end of this week)
