"You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We'll preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we'll sentence them to take the last step into a thousand years of darkness." – Ronald Reagan

My opinion on why your opinion is stupid

Wrapping up my news-reading for the evening, I stumbled upon the following nugget of joy. Apparently, Miss Margaret Molteni thinks your opinion is worthless, and she’d like to tell you about it:

Blogging is getting out of hand. It is understandable if you are doing mission work and telling inspirational accounts of your daily life or do something interesting on a daily basis, but for all of the bloggers out there, I have one question for you: why? I mean, who even reads those things?

I definitely don’t go around searching the Web for people’s pointless thoughts. Only recently have my friends been blogging. I love my friends to death, but their blogs are completely irrelevant to anything and everything.

I consider myself to be a very exciting person, but I’m so busy being interesting that I don’t even have time to blog about it. Maybe there is not so much wrong with blogging as with the fact that all the wrong people are doing it. They are the people that have so little going on in their lives that they get on a computer daily and write about senseless topics and post pictures that only they and their mothers would enjoy.

Now that I’ve gotten that off of my chest I’m going to go live my life — instead of typing about it.

Let me let that simmer with you for just a moment…

A woman. Shares her opinion. About why your opinion. Is worthless.

See the irony?

I guess “blogging” in letter-to-the-editor format is much more acceptable than writing your thoughts, opinions, and musings on your own site. I’m certainly under no impression that my musings shape policy or move people to action. People either read my blog or they don’t. Would I like more readers? Sure.

Veiled in her ignorant and exceedingly ironic newspaper blog entry is an important point: who cares?

But people do care. Not just about my site or other sites like it, but about a wide range of topics, from interesting cooking recipes to things that people of caucasian descent enjoy – to … whatever you could think of.

I did a little investigating myself and discovered Miss Molteni’s Facebook page. (Oh, it’s not as creepy as it sounds. A simple Google search will net the results you need…) In addition to her ironic blogpost-to-the-editor, Miss Molteni often takes part in updating her Facebook status:

Margaret Molteni this weekend is going to be amazing! Sarah is on her way!

Margaret Molteni it was sooo wonderful seeing some people from group three today!

Margaret Molteni WHIP IT. best movie of the year.
31 January at 22:09

While not a blogpost in the traditional sense, Miss Molteni does update her friends on the “pointless thoughts” that she has randomly. I mean, who cares about her opinion of WHIP IT?

I guess in Miss Molteni’s defense, she is still in high school. Perhaps she doesn’t understand the free exchange of ideas through blogging and other mediums. I read blogs to get a sense of what other people are thinking. I read people who agree with my position, and I read people with whom I do not agree. I read blogs about local governments; I read blogs about state governments; and I read blogs about the federal government, as well as other issues.

So, Miss Molteni, while you deride blogging as some “pointless” effort, I would suggest you take a moment to read what’s going on in your community. Nashville is a big pond for you, and there are many people with many diverse opinions. And while you may not agree with all of them, most of them are certainly interesting to read. And as for your zinger at the end:

Now that I’ve gotten that off of my chest I’m going to go live my life — instead of typing about it.

We’ll just let it speak for itself.

LI training in Nashville

I am very pleased to announce that the Leadership Institute is teaming up with conservative students on the campus of Vanderbilt University and other conservative organizations in Nashville for two two-day intense training sessions (March 27 – 28) geared toward conservatives who want to win!

This means you!

For over 40 years, Morton Blackwell has trained young people to organize mass based youth efforts for campaigns. His successes led him to orchestrate the 1980 Youth for Reagan movement, which was instrumental in sweeping conservative politics into the White House.

Additionally, the Leadership Institute has developed a top-notch Grassroots training program, which puts conservative activists into action on the campaigns of their choosing.

You and I both know there are plenty of campaigns from which we can choose in the Nashville area this year. And LI knows that – to be successful in November – those conservative candidates must have help from the footsoldiers of the conservative movement.

This means you!

There are two options to choose:

1. The Youth Leadership School. This two-day training is geared toward young people who want to get involved in campaigns. I personally attended a YLS in April 2007 after working on my first successful State House race in Rutherford County, and it instilled in me the knowledge and skills to be a successful youth organizer. If you’re in college and looking to get involved, this training’s for you! You can register online today for the training in March.

2. The Grassroots School. This training will take place concurrently at Vanderbilt and is geared toward tea party organizers, 9/12 moms, town hall attendees, and all others who are sick and tired of out-of-control government. If you’re out of college and looking to get involved, then this school is for you! E-mail Grassroots Director Robert Arnakis for more information at RArnakis@limail.us.

Spread the word about this training. Tell your friends, family, co-workers, and churchmembers about the opportunities LI is providing in March. And invite more people to the Facebook group to raise awareness for the training.

For general questions, please do not hesitate to e-mail me at MHurtt@campusreform.org or call me at (703) 647-3220.

I look forward to seeing you on March 27th and 28th!

In Liberty!

P.S. Check out the Leadership Institute’s newest project, CampusReform.org, which seeks to combat leftist abuses and bias on university campuses.
