Mourning Dove Hill

In its lifetime, this blog has dealt with a very wide range of subjects.

Another aim is to criticize Donald Trump, who I regard as evil and despicable, not to mention dangerous. Comments are encouraged, but you may need to sign in with a Google account.

About Me

My photo
Old Leftist Curmudgeon
I am a retired single gay male. I've always been pretty Left in my politics (yes, I am a card-carrying member of the ACLU and proud of it), and am somewhere around the atheist/agnostic/free-thinker end of the religious spectrum. I like to think I have views and opinions on a wide range of subjects. Hopefully some of them, at least, are original and worth reading. Readers of this blog may post their comments, but please try to keep them on the subject. (Please note: Posting a comment may require that you be logged in with a Google account.) Anyone who wants to contact me with more personal comments, please feel encouraged to do so. This blog now displays my email address.
