too bad it's conservative...

...because the title is absolutely wonderful. A rightous and rightfully sniggering voice for Santa Barbara conservatism has emerged with the new blog "hippie-free Santa Barbara". I have my own uncomfortable relationship with SB hippies and certain parts of the environmental community here in Santa Barbara. However, I'd rather deal with them than Republicans, even with the occasional short-term thinking and not-so-occasional below the surface racism. At any rate, it will be nice to check up on what the handful of actual Republicans in this town think, in addition to the pseudo-Republicans who wield so much power in our fair city.

Also, the author seems to be afraid of political repression at the hands of said hippie establishment. Like blogabarbara's honchos, he's hiding behind a psuedonymn. Poor Republicans. So beaten down.
