Welcome to FreeSpeechAlley...a cyber tribute and continuance to the late debating corner that once existed around the shady oaks of Louisiana State University at Baton Rouge. In addition to my admittedly conservative commentary, from time to time I will run columns penned by guests with a more "contrary" (i.e., liberal) point of view. The editiorials run on this site will cover International and National political events in addition to stories of note in Louisiana and on occasion the Pelican State's yankee counterpart in political skullduggery, the great state of New Jersey. Let the discourse begin!
