This editor is semi-retired from Conservapedia and pursuing new opportunities.

Hello, this is my user page.

I guess I can post more details about myself, but that will have to wait.

Disclaimer

In the interests of avoiding scandal, I present the following disclaimer to clarify my role as a Conservapedia editor:

My edits should only be construed as endorsement of text that I author and introduce. I do not endorse text written by other authors. In particular, I do not endorse the Conservative Bible Project.

Shameless self-promotion

One of my side projects is creating a federal bill to give consumers and employees in arbitration due process protections, based on Jeff Sessions's Fair Arbitration Act. This project is discussed on my blog.

Quotes

“ Respect for the reputation of persons forbids every attitude and word likely to cause them unjust injury. He becomes guilty:
--of rash judgment who, even tacitly, assumes as true, without sufficient foundation, the moral fault of a neighbor;
--of detraction who, without objectively valid reason, discloses another's faults and failings to persons who did not know them;
--of calumny who, by remarks contrary to the truth, harms the reputation of others and gives occasion for false judgments concerning them.
 ”

—CCC 2477


“ Genghis Khant still upset about 50,026 Word Dynamo test score, 4rth place finish in spelling bee and university writing tutor position ”

“ I wish we could drop into the Potomac all those obsolescent conservatives who are still preoccupied with Alger Hiss and General MacArthur, and who keep trotting out laissez faire economics and other dead horses. They make the Republican party look musty to millions of ignored working-class people who are looking for a party that relates to their needs. ”
