Political Corrections by Michael Jaymes Cassidy.
For an antipodean look at the world we live in.
G'day.
Welcome to our new political inspired mailing list.
First some background on the list:
After sitting through the entire Clinton Scandal, and hearing how other
countries (especially back home) were reacting to it, I thought that
someone was missing the "big picture"
So I sat and mused about doing something about it. I began a letter to
the editor, and thought even if this does get published, who really is
going to see what I have to say?? So from this idea, the Political
Corrections list was created.
We put off creating the list for quite some time, because what is commonly
called "real life" kept interfering with the process. However, with the
Australian General Elections of 1998 fast approaching, it was decided to
get this list up and running, so that commentary could be made about that.
Of course, the Story of the Century (at least for this week) HAD to be
covered first. These, and all other commentary are archived both at the
ListBot site as well as our own web page.
Now some background on me:
My name is Michael Jaymes Cassidy. I am an alumnus of Griffith University
in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. I have also attended a prestigious
University in the Eastern United States. To protect my true identity (and
my family's business dealings), I cannot give any more information on this
University. Rest assured that I am not Joe Klein. (The author of Primary
Colours, written anonymously)
My background is in International Business, with minors in English and
German. I am an Australian currently living on the East Coast of the
United States. My politics are what could be called a conservative member
of the Australian Labor Party (notice the Americanisation of the spelling??
An insult), or in my current residence, a conservative Democrat. Sort of
like George Will.
My hope for this list is to engage in discourse about a number of
subjects. Of course, our primary focus will be politics, but I also
expect to venture into the fields of movies (especially Australian Cinema)
and sports, occasionally.
Now for some legal stuff:
All opinions expressed are my own, and do not necessarily reflect my
company's, my family's, or anything else for that matter.
