James Crabtree's Blog

A small glimpse into the thoughts and ideas of James Crabtree in Austin, Texas.

Name:
Location: Austin, Texas, United States

I'm a 29 year old Captain in the US Marine Corps Reserves. I served close to eight months in Iraq with an infantry battalion and returned home to Austin in April. I'm recently engaged to the love of my life, Meredith, and we live in central Austin. She's a nurse and takes great care of me. I work in politics and government and enjoy my life here in the best town in the US. I'm also a Christian and my big passions in life are politics, baseball, and Civil War history. I'd like to think I'm easy going and have a good sense of humor. This site is my first attempt to start a blog.

Club for Growth

One of the best groups in the nation when it comes to electing pro-free market candidates to office is the Club for Growth. I'm proud to be a member of their organization and I'm impressed with how they target RINOs (Republicans in name only) in primaries and help low-tax and limited government candidates win. They have been successful with defeating some isolationist candidates like the former Gov of SC last year in the GOP senate primary. Their success has caused them to be recognized as one of the best PACs in the country. Check out their site at www.clubforgrowth.com to learn more about them and some of the good works they've done.

Another site I love is Power Line Blog. They are the best blog in the country. No doubt about it. They were one of the sites that exposed Dan Rather's lies in the Bush "national guard papers" story. You can see them everyday with new commentary and insight at www.powerlineblog.com.

Hope y'all had a great weekend. Meredith and I are off to see Riverdance soon. Should be fun.

Hey James! If you remember me, my name is Michael Krekel, and I sent you and your unit a care package back in August of 2004 while you were in Iraq. Glad to see you've made it back safely and even made a blog. Seems like everyone has one nowadays, even I do!!

God Bless!
