Indulging in Heartfelt, Heady, Conservative Banter ... In An Attempt To Put The Light Back Into America ... And Perhaps Some Life Back Into This Frost-Bitten Mitten State Turned Blue ...
I am semi-retired after spending 30 years turning cartwheels in the backyard of Corporate America. I'm happily married, and between my wife, Andrea, and I, have 8 children and 9 grandchildren. I recently released 12 songs on the Touch Em All Production's CD "The Passion's Back". For info please visit: http://touch-em-all.net/. This blog, "Rouge Revival", pertains to my core belief that our nation's founding father's had it "right" and that the success of the auto industry was one of the many direct results of their vision. "Rouge" is French for the color "Red", which also symbolizes the color indicator for Republican states. Rouge is also the name of an historic river, here in SE Michigan, as well as, the name of the largest integrated factory complex in the world, which at one time employed 100,000 Ford Motor Workers. The "Revival" is my vision for both a successful rebound of the auto industry, along with a Republican Party led State of Michigan and Country!
Oh yeah, and I hope to have and share a bit of fun within the process ...
The death and devastation brought about in the Mumbai, India terror attacks, should serve as a reminder, to us all, of this global threat that continues to be knocking on our nation's door.
While we mourn those lost and pray for their families, as well as those injured, it is time we (as a nation) step back and realize that there is one major reason it was not us. That there is absolutely one major reason we have not been hit since September 11, 2001.
George W. Bush.
Let us stop the bashing and give this man his due!!!
