In the United Kingdom's parlimentary system, the opposing coalition or party often refers to itself as the shadow government. Under Barack Obama and previous government expansionist presidents, democracy itself has become the shadow government, the party of opposition laying in wait in the hope that it can take over some day.

About Me

Shortlaw
New Orleans, Louisiana, United States
I am Mark Ladd. I'm an attorney working in southern Louisiana, living in New Orleans. I have a M.P.A. focusing in health care administration and a bachelor's in Political Science. I have long been a Reagan conservative and identify with libertarian philosphy. I started this blog because I think my family and friends probably are sick of me emailing my opinions to them on a daily basis. I hope that through logic and humor this blog might shed light on why this country needs to pull back from government expansion and look towards its founding documents to look ahead to the future.
