Welcome

Greetings and salutations from the Madisonian Observer. Based in Madison, Wisconsin, the Madisonian is a 22-year-old UW student with a penchant for, well, everything. From discussion and commentary on issues from politics to the courts and science to religion, the Madisonian is ready and willing to prod and probe the minds of all who wish to visit. Although several blogs based in Madison have recently begun to thrive, the Madisonian was still left wanting. That is, blogs for the single-issue reader abound, but none for the "kaleidoscopic man, a man of many different humors, fair and colorful as the city itself" (Republic, Book VIII).

Indeed, it is the intention of the Madisonian to present as great a breadth and depth of issues as possible. The Madisonian will attempt to keep the discussion as germane to the day as possible, but there are no guarantees.

Above all, the Madisonian wants this blog to provide a fresh outlook on a variety of issues. The Madisonian wants readers to think and to question. So, if this sounds good, please visit. The Madisonian really wants to read your thoughts and your ideas, and is very excited to provide a great forum from which to do it.
