A New Venture

It's been about a year since I took YBL and made it more League City focused. Since then, the involvement in the "comments" has been huge (for a city in suburban Houston) and the participation by many leaders in the community has been GREAT.

Since there have been many comments with great information that I've missed, I've created this site specifically for those community leaders (and other opinionated folks) about issues regarding League City, and to a lesser extent Galveston County. While YBL is all about MY thoughts on LC, national politics, and others... and is unabashedly slanted to the Democratic Left... League City Politics is open to all sides of the political spectrum.

The "city" is where real change can happen, and things like traffic and schools are NOT partisan issues. Let's debate them. Let's hear from those "in charge" and tell them why we think they're right or wrong. Keep it civil, but stay honest.

The sad truth is that 80% of our fair city knows little-to-nothing about local politics, and aren't aware that decisions made by the council can have immediate effects on their lives. Let's change that...

So is this a non partisan blog? Is this a more general League City Blog? Is this a Republican friendly version of www.ybl.net?

Not non- partisan, but MULTI-partisan. Though it would be nice if things were more "issues" based.

However, I have no plans on moderating the front-page. So the folks invited to post can say/post whatever they want.
