Starting a New Series

This week I’ll be start­ing a new book, called “The Conservative’s Hand­book” by Phil Valen­tine.  I bought two or three weeks ago and have yet to read any of it.

So as a moti­va­tion to get into the pages, I’m going to start a new arti­cle series sum­ma­riz­ing what I’ve read and how I think it applies today.  I haven’t decid­ing on a fre­quency of the posts, but since I’m in school again (Ack!) it won’t be every night.  It’ll prob­a­bly be more on the order of every other night or every two days or so.  We’ll see.

I’m really look­ing for­ward to read­ing this book.  Here I am – a con­ser­v­a­tive – and hon­estly I don’t know what all entails the con­ser­v­a­tive mantra.  Hence the pur­chase of the book.

Even­tu­ally I would also like to read books on lib­er­al­ism – just so I can under­stand what my “oppo­nents” believe in.  Once that hap­pens I think some edu­cated dis­cus­sions can take place.  Until then, it’s like two kids argu­ing over physics – nei­ther knows what they’re argu­ing about because they don’t under­stand what is.
