When GHWB invaded Panama, that inspired me to ask questions and I became political

Before that, I was always kinda of liberal, but I wasn’t really political. Since I was at the Pentagon at the time, it really didn’t take a lot of effort to seek out political discourse, because it was all around me.

Books, radio, TV, periodicals, conversation, I immersed myself from then on out. And I never looked back.

Instead of just being a liberal, I built myself into a Super Liberal.

So, in a way, you can thank GHWB for my presence on this site.

The answer to my question: “Why the fuck are we invading Panama?” was the first step in a life long journey.
