Ronin Profile: Forensicator
* * * * What's the story behind your name? In both high school and college, I've been active in the speech and debate community, which often goes by the name of Forensics. It also sounds a lot cooler than my actual name, and if you want street cred, you've got to have a cool name. [That's why I go by Frank J. The letter 'j' is the coolest letter. -Ed.] Where do you live? I attend college in Bowling Green, KY How old are you? Sadly, I'm but a wee lad of a mere eighteen years. Tell us briefly about yourself. I was born and raised in Indianapolis, IN until my family moved to the People's Republic of Seattlestan. I went through my "stupid young years" when I was a liberal (we're not going to go there, okay?), and now go to the University of Western Kentucky on a debate scholarship. I love studying economics, because anybody who takes that course becomes a conservative. It's almost as though education makes you smarter. After I graduate from here, I'm going to be attending a Presbyterian Seminary. Haven't decided where I'm going to go yet, but I'm really excited. How long have you been reading IMAO? I started reading IMAO shortly after Bush's 2004 re-election after seeing one of your tee shirts, so about 3 years. What's your favorite IMAO post? All the Know Thy Enemy posts are absolutely fantastic. Frank's Editorials (along with Frank Advice) comes in a close second. If you were to describe IMAO in three words, what would those be? Superior to Kos. [Damning us with faint praise? "IMAO: Better than a sack of crap!"] What's you favorite political issue? What isn't my favorite political issue? As a member of the right-wing conspiracy, I'm required to care about immigration and national security. One of my professors actually was an adviser to the pentagon and helped develop the modern counter-insurgency strategy in Iraq, which is a very engaging issue. Do you have a website? If so, please tell us briefly about it. Sadly, no. I don't have the follow-through to actually make a blog. I have a facebook, if that counts. Why do you think liberals hate the troops? Honestly, Frank, I don't know why anybody would hate the troops. I mean, they're sympathetic, intelligent leaders who shoot ter'ists. Every friend of mine who has served has been an outstanding example of not only a soldier, but of a human being. What's not to like? So I believe that the liberals' hatred of the troops could only possibly be traced to a mental disorder of some kind. Probably the same one that makes them liberal. * * * * If you commented in the last post asking for participants, you're still in the running. Thanks to everyone who has participated so far; just because you may not think you're interesting doesn't mean we won't enjoy your story. 12 Responses To "Ronin Profile: Forensicator"
"Do you have a website? If so, please tell us briefly about it. Sadly, no... You run Sadly, No??? Bad Ronin. Very Bad Ronin. #1 - Posted by: DesertElephant on October 9, 2007 07:11 PMFrom economics to a Presbyterian Seminary? Whoa, you're gonna have some heavy rectifying to do. Like pray to God that you've got those numbers right as you debate your opponent that he doesn't understand economics? :-) #2 - Posted by: Old Geezer on October 9, 2007 07:24 PMYou can tell Forensicator is the real deal, because that is what we in the community call ourselves. "Forensicating" is a wonderful gerund; it sure does get the attention of the uninitiated. Shout out to Forensicator from this writer, a high school forensics coach in Wisconsin! Rock on, friend! #3 - Posted by: EdFalkner on October 9, 2007 07:26 PMI was a member of the forensicating community in high school, but I repented and now I'm happily married. I have been debate-free at least 12 hours now. (Since my dear hubby left for work.) #4 - Posted by: Lily on October 9, 2007 08:15 PMForensicating? Hmmm...what can I do with that? Ha! Forensicating (foren-sika-teeng), Native American pidgin Phrase describing smallpox to newly infected Amerinds after the Eeevil White Oppressor Columbus' arrival in the New World. "Why are we dying, Howlsatmoon?" "It is the White Man's Foren sicka teeng that is killing us, Gray Cloud." And don't try to debate me on this, young man. Sorry, Frank J. Oooh, something Shiny!! #5 - Posted by: howlsatmoon on October 9, 2007 09:32 PMSo, Frank, you're saying "J" is the new "X"? After reading Rachel Lucas' recent post about her (unwilling) night out at a local nightclub, it's nice to see that not all of the youth in this country are as clueless as those she encountered. Some of you young'uns 'round heah revive my faith in your generation. #6 - Posted by: cknight on October 9, 2007 10:14 PMSome of you young'uns 'round heah revive my faith in your generation. My thoughts exactly as I read this profile (and IMAO in general). #7 - Posted by: on October 9, 2007 10:18 PM"I went through my "stupid young years" when I was a liberal (we're not going to go there, okay?)" -Forensicator We are soooooo going there. Haha you use to be a liberal! Wooohh!!! What a LOSER! Hey, hey, you going to demand higher taxes?! HAHAHa! :) #8 - Posted by: AR on October 9, 2007 10:26 PMWait, doesn't attending Presbyterian Seminary contradict being conservative??? Great to know there are more of my generation who have not succumbed to Obama-mania. #9 - Posted by: Damian G. on October 10, 2007 01:13 AMForensicator: Excellent observation about the disconnnect between economics and liberalism. I agree that no reasonably intelligent person who studies economics can remain a fiscal liberal. Just a quick note on Presbyterians. My father stopped attending a Presbyterian church in 1969(?) or so when the church (I believe throught the aupices of the "World Council of Churches") contributed money to the Angela Davis defense fund. Sorry about the long preamble, but does the Presbyterian Church still "do business" with the World Council of Churches? Anyone? #10 - Posted by: Alamo on October 10, 2007 08:54 AMDon't worry, I'm sure most of us had stupid younger years. Heck, I was more or less liberal most of my life until I started using my brain a few years ago. Yeah, all these profiles bring me hope for my generation. Most of the people I've befriended are pretty ignorant, so this makes me verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry happy. #11 - Posted by: Hazel on October 10, 2007 12:10 PMChurchill said that anyone not a liberal at 18 had no heart and anyone not a conservative at 40 had no brain. As I see it, Forensicator, you are 22 years premature conservative. #12 - Posted by: allthatsright on October 10, 2007 01:03 PMPost a comment
