Currently living in the South Carolina Lowcountry, Mike has taken a keen interest in politics and government since his days as a young whippersnapper in Ohio. There, he organized College Republicans clubs, worked as a professional staffer on two statewide campaigns and was elected to the Delaware County Republican Central Committee among other achievements. In 1986 he began graduate studies in government at Columbia University where he specialized in National Security matters under the tutelage of former National Security Advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski. Leaving New York in 1988 he moved to Washington, D.C. to become a White House Intern in the Political Office of President Ronald Reagan. With backing from the first Bush Administration he spent four years at the Environmental Protection Agency. He has lived on Hilton Head since 1996 where he writes, photographs and gardens.

Here Froggy Froggy: Let Them Eat Cake Update

Examining my visitor logs, I found that my post on the Subway sandwich flap "Let Them Eat Cake" has been attracting quite a bit of attention today in France, Great Britain and one hit from San Francisco, which is about as close to France in spirit as you are likely to find this side of Montreal.

Sorry, readers, but I don't have a lot of nice things to say about the French, as you will see if you visit that comment stream. But to have one of the ungrateful amphibian slimy toads call Americans "stupid" is just inviting a stronger response.

I have momentarily lifted the ban on profanity, in case any AMERICANS want to put in their two cents... Defeatist, America hating surrender monkeys (and this includes Democrats) may be subject to stricter speech regulation.
