Welcome

So here is "el bloggo", The Gospel According to Luke. I know, the title is a bit ostentatious but it was not my idea. I wish it was though. Even more apropos given where I'm livin'.
And for all of you who do read the Good Book I will from time to time have some biblical references on this site. But if you came here for some good Christian info I'm sorry to say this ain't the place. Alas, this is politics.
I forget which Greek philosopher said something along the lines of "politics is life" but I see it the same. Not so much that you should live and breathe "politricks" but at the same time the policies that our leaders construct dictate the parameters of our lives (and our children's). Issues of environment, economics, social welfare, and of course war and peace directly effect us all personally. That is why I feel the need to share these things. I believe we need to educate ourselves on politics, we need to keep our focus on the decision makers, and we need to discuss the "issues" and "connect the dots". One world, One family, One destiny. Peace.
