I’m very happy to announce that yet another mighty fine blogger has agreed to co-blog at PoliGazette.
Jimmie is not a politician. He doesn’t even work in politics. Actually, he works in law enforcement and has returned to school for his degree in music so he can get his teaching certificate so he can teach choral music in one of America’s fine public schools. None of this makes him an astute observer of politics or current events.
What does help a little is his lifelong interest in what’s going on around him and his ongoing quest to live up to the phrase “Renaissance Man”. It doesn’t hurt that he’s been a C-SPAN junkie since he was a teenager or that his attention span flits around worse than a caffeinated fruit fly. He enjoys writing about what he knows and likes and is very glad when others take their valuable time to read what he has to say.
He also told me that he’s very happy to co-blog here at PoliGazette which is one of his, he says, favorite blogs. I’m 100% convinced that this is despite my presence at this blog, but I’ll happily accept the compliment nonetheless because I was able to convince the poor buggers to blog here.
Jimmie runs the blog The Sundries Shack: a fine conservative blog. He was a supporter of Fred Thompson, and is rethinking his position now.
Please take the time to welcome Jimmie!

PoliGazette Comments Policy
PoliGazette encourages comments from all viewpoints, especially those that disagree.
Comments submitted must, however, adhere to the following standards. Comments that violate
these standards may be edited or deleted without notice at the sole discretion of the editors.
Commenters who repeatedly or egregiously violate these standards or who attempt to argue
publicly with editors regarding the comments policy may be banned from commenting further.
(1) Comments should address the substantive content of the post. Comments that repeatedly
or blatantly misrepresent the content of the post or of others' comments are not welcome. Comments that
respond to something other than which the contributor or commenter may have said are irrelevant and should
not be posted.
(2) Comments should avoid vulgarity as well as racial, ethnic, religious, or sexual bigotry.
(3) Comments should not personally attack the character, personal integrity, or professional
reputation of any PoliGazette contributor or of other commenters.
(4) Comments should reflect the contributions of the commenters themselves and should not
include extensive cut-and-paste reproductions of others' words except insofar as necessary to supplement
the commenter's own arguments. Link spam, trackback spam, and propaganda spam will be instantly deleted.
(5) Public figures are considered open to all substantive criticism of their policies and statements.
Comments that present objectively false factual information about public figures (i.e. "Obama is a Muslim") or
that attack public figures by attacking their families are not welcome. Comments that merely repeat
slogans for or against a candidate without engaging in substantive comment are not welcome.
Questions or challenges to these policies or their application should be directed to the editors
by email only.
Thanks for inviting me, Michael. I’m glad to be on board!
Glad to have you!
