Title: Greetings from Pennsylvania!
Post by: PatriotGal2257 on April 01, 2012, 03:49:11 PM
I found this site through a fellow HotAir commentor's link, and after looking at some of the posts where I commented today, I regret to say I don't remember whose name it was. But I extend my thanks to them for showing me the way here.

I'm a noob at HotAir, too, finally making it in during the first open registration back in October? November? I forget when exactly, because there was another a week or so later. I was lucky enough to get onto Michelle Malkin's site last year, so this site will complete the trifecta.

A little about myself: obviously, I'm from western Pennsylvania (the wrong side of the Commonwealth, according to people in Philly), conservative, Catholic (definitely not cafeteria!), in a profession I've loved even before I knew what it was called: graphic design, a (very) amateur guitarist, a singer in my church choir, a pop music freak since I was a kid, and over the past couple years, very interested in politics.

One day I typed into Google the phrase "conservative blogs," and found this: http://www.conservatismtoday.com/my_weblog/2008/08/conservatism-to.html (http://[url=http://www.conservatismtoday.com/my_weblog/2008/08/conservatism-to.html)]Conservatism Today's 24 Best Conservative Blogs[/url], and added a bunch of them as RSS feeds to my Google home page. The rest, as they say, is history. :) Thanks for being here!

That is high praise considering the other two mentioned.

It's always nice to know that there are so many other conservatives out there. We are the not-so-silent majority.

Thanks, IDP! I have been looking around a bit; haven't had enough time to explore everything, but I'm sure I'll find lots of things to comment on. Not only that, but I am looking forward to learning more about everything you have to offer here. I'm sure I'll be here a while ... maybe decades ... for as long as you're here! LOL

Kittanning! That's a nice little town. Been there several times over the years.

so this site will complete the trifecta.

If you have any complaints about tone or subject matter, you can direct message "John Florida." When he's not catching the early bird senior special at Denny's, or napping in the Florida sunshine, he is here and ready to assist you in in any way!

(You are so welcome, Mr. Florida . . .)

You are quite welcome, and I'll be sure to take note of Mr. Florida in case I ever need to contact him. ;D

One common denominator is that practically everyone on this forum has been banned from other "conservative" sites due to, ahem, "tone".  It is something of a badge of honor.  Truth gets delivered intravenously around here.
