Welcome to Realistic Politics!

I'm Simmons, and I'll be your host for Realistic Politics.

I'm a moderate Democrat, but a little more hawkish on foreign policy then most liberals (at least here on the internet). I'm realistic (not a realist - that's different); at least, I like to think of myself as that.

Now, time for some shameless self promotion:
I also blog at http://thethoughtsontheworld.blogspot.com, Thoughts on Global Warming, and the International Relations Blog.

Hope you enjoy the show!
