I wanted to wait until the details were worked out before I said anything here, but I am now a contributor to Andrew Breitbart’s Big Journalism, which launched in January 2010 as a response to the way the mainstream media handles conservative figures and right-of-center viewpoints.

Of Big Journalism, Breitbart says:

“Our goal at Big Journalism is to hold the mainstream media’s feet to the fire. There are a lot of stories that they simply don’t cover, either because it doesn’t fit their world view, or because they’re literally innocent of any knowledge that the story even exists, or because they are a dying organization, short-staffed, and thus can’t cover stuff like they did before.”

Big Journalism’s Editor in Chief is the very talented Dana Loesch, who’s quite the conservative activist in the St. Louis area.

For those not familiar with Big Journalism, it’s one of four of Breitbart’s “Big” sites: Big Hollywood, Big Government, Big Journalism, and Big Peace.

I’ve written news and commentary for over nine years now, and I’m honored to join the growing family of “Big” contributors to help expose liberal media bias.

I am humbled and honored to be able to contribute to Big Journalism.

If you have a tip or suggestion, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment here or drop me an email.

Briefly, I’ll be taking a few days off for the holiday. Posts will be infrequent at best. Enjoy your holiday weekend. Don’t lose any fingers. And remember why we celebrate — because a few dead guys had a vision to create a nation of free men, who would be governed by a restrained government, with power granted to it by the people.

These men risked everything — their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor — and generations of men and women have come after them, laying their lives on the line for our freedom. Thank them.

Have a good weekend. I’ll see you next week.

I have been gone for nearly two years. In June 2009, I packed my belongings and headed to Washington from Murfreesboro, Tennessee. In the weeks leading up to the big move, I faced a number of uncertainties. I had grown up more or less at home, even through college. I never stayed more than a few miles from home for any extended period, much less moved out of my home state altogether for uncharted territory.

I only ever visited D.C. once before moving — back in 2006, I think, with a good friend during an early Spring Break. It was cold, windy. I didn’t like it. In fact, in the months preceding the big move, I said I would never in a million years move to D.C. Haha. How that changed quickly.

This should be interesting, to say the least.

After a months-long hiatus from blogging, I have decided to gradually rejoin the Internet with political news, commentary and opinions. I’m just feeling this out again, so posts will be sporadic at first. My work schedule is very hectic – as I am in the middle of a campaign.

Things have changed since I took the blog offline. I’ve changed jobs and locations, moving an hour outside the Beltway to work on a state campaign for a true conservative candidate in Maryland.

I stay connected with Tennessee politics, and I have watched with great interest a number of races at the local and state level in Tennessee, where I am from originally. Additionally, I am concerned about a number of races and issues at the national level.

So while I’m not sure where this is going, I hope to keep you entertained an informed. Thanks again for your readership.

As an addendum, I hope these posts are longer than my tweets. In fact, I hope to expound upon many of my tweets here.
