On Monday, a student named Jon Blough wrote a letter to the editor about my last column. If you read it, I’m sure you were as confused and shocked as I was. There are people who disagree with me?

After skimming his letter, I dismissed the substantive issues he had with my point of view. (I can’t argue with people who ignore facts.) But I couldn’t dismiss the personal attacks.

“As Brenna takes herself more seriously,” Jon wrote, “her logic becomes troublesome.” Well, let me tell you something about logic-things are only true if you state them authoritatively.Jon, you’re wrong.

The thing is, I do take myself seriously, and that’s because I take America’s concerns seriously.

Some people (like Jon Blough) may think I’m an “egregiously offensive,” close-minded conservative, but I’m so much more than that. Believe it or not, I care about differing perspectives. Which is why I’m inviting my readers to send me questions. I’ll help you untangle political issues; I’ll offer you personal advice; I’ll provide you with the morally right answers to all of your problems.

You can e-mail me or comment online. I’ll respond with a blog post to as many questions as I can.
