BlinkinBlogs Liberals?

The question was raised a while back by one of our three readers if we here at BlinkinBlogs.com are liberals. I will now answer that question.

1. There are several BlinkinBlogs writers. I know all of them as I recruited them to our cause - whatever the hell that is. I can assure you that no two of them are completely alike in thought or perspective. In fact that is why I recruited them. They do have one thing very important in common though - they are all very intelligent professionals.
2. I cannot speak completely on behalf of my fellow writers with regards to which way they lean but I can tell you this: I am not a  Liberal, however I am also not a Conservative. I fall into this weird hybrid category of someone who is actually openminded enough to listen to what everyone has to say on any matter as I know one thing is true: I don’t know everything.
3. GlazedNConfused also comes across like a liberal sometimes. I don’t know if he is but I will tell you this about him - GnC is a skeptic if one ever existed. That does not mean the man is close minded at all - quite the contrary - but he does like his facts and he likes them to be somewhat believable - not sure what that is in his eyes but I swear its true. That said, he also is more than happy to point out BS when he sees it - like most of my articles.
4. Enigma is this really smart savant esque guy who is right on the edge of being anti-social to a point of Obie Wan Kenobi. In contrast I am as anti-social as Obie Wan Kenobi - actually I am more so and look like a sand person to boot. Enigma enjoys banter, pointing out stupid, and owning MANY GUNS. I can’t say he is liberal or conservative but I do know he believes in the right to bare arms.
5. Five0ClockCharlie comes from a very military backed family and thus has had serious interaction with that world. It has empowered him to see many things that most civilian types, like GnC, Me and Enigma, never get to see. Consequently he doesn’t pipe in nearly as often as I’d like and has a difficult time spouting off as some things he knows about he probably should never say publicly. All that aside he is a dork/nerd/computer geek and thus is pretty fond of freedom. In effect, he is the most politically confused person I know as he likes liberal stuff but is inundated by his family with conservative perspectives. I do not envy him.
6. MoMajic has more education that all of the rest of us combined. He is directly involved in governmental affairs and writes for many publications of various degrees. He is a world traveller and has a very interesting background. That said I have no clue what the guy is. I can say that he loves logic, proper design, and well thought out anything - but then again who doesn’t?

In closing we are not pinko liberal commies - or whatever McCain is calling them now. That said we are also not conservatives. Basically nobody here is a feather on either wing. All we are is a bunch of educated professionals who like to point out stuff that smells quite a bit like shit and say “Hey.. have you smelled this?”
