A new voice is entering the realm of MooreThoughts.  And, as I am a Moore, I have determined myself to be more than qualified.  I am the wife of this blog's wonderful creator, and have held that title for nearly two years now.  I will use this forum to share my ideas on education, leftist hypocrisy, individual accountability, and other topics that I hold dear. 
 
Before I ask you to entertain my positions, I should introduce myself.  I believe I can best do that by explaining my former attributes:
 
1. I am a former Democrat.  I was the Vice-President of my College Democrats (GO TERPS ... FEAR THE TURTLE!).  I wore all of the right buttons and had the politically-correct bumper stickers.  And, I was a White House intern under Bill Clinton.  Well, not literally under him.  I was there in the Fall of 1995, in the same intern class as one Monica Lewinsky.  Various events, and a general decision to grow up, have altered my outlook for the better.  I plan to expand on this evolution in future entries, so hold that baited breath!
 
2. I am a former public school teacher.  I taught high school government and history for several years.  My frustration with the teachers' union, the lack of accountability by anyone involved in the process, and the pressure to dumb down classes to meet the dwindling attention spans of our teenagers forced me from the system.  I could not participate in a process to which I was so fundamentally opposed.  This experience also helped to solidify my transition to the Right.
 
3. I am former Beltway girl learning to appreciate the "flyover" states.  I grew up just outside Washington, D.C. and moved to Nashville two years ago, just after getting married.  My appreciation for the "Real America" (which is regularly discussed by my favorite talk radio guy, Glenn Beck) grows every day.
 
I look forward to having this outlet to vent, analyze, question and challenge.  I am now a writer by trade, and I appreciate all outlets to further my craft.  Stay tuned!
