My objective is to give a forum to many of the other writers who I am connected to, but do not see as often as I like.The group will be open to some who I may disagree with, but still respect their presentation, or attitude.

It will also be a place where deeper cultural insights are found, sometimes in those little snippet posts, or their comments. I also encourage long dissertations, and everything between. Humor is encouraged; the use of sarcasm being so important to explaining politics today.
