PATRICK DORINSON (aka the Common Sense Cowboy) has lived through and endured many lives over the course of his seven-plus decades on this planet as a maverick, a dreamer, a schemer and — most appropriately for the purposes of this bio — a communicator.

Dorinson is a longtime author, speaker, and Newsmax and Fox News contributor who, for nearly a decade, was host of his own The Cowboy Libertarian radio show on iHeart media’s Sacramento-based KFBK.

Although he takes pride in the fact that renowned conservative talk show stalwart Rush Limbaugh had his start at the same station, Dorinson takes further pride still in the fact that throughout his lengthy career, he has worked with equal passion and grit on both sides of the aisle. Along with, as he likes to say, “in the aisle itself.”

Aspiring toward being something of a modern-day Will Rogers (with a twinkly-eyed twist of Mark Twain), Dorinson transmits his thoughtful dispatches, continuing to tell the stories of diverse regular folks who do most of the heavy lifting in America today (and always have).

After hanging up his spurs as a seasoned veteran of the political strategy and media commentary battlefields (with the combat scars to prove it!) at 55, Dorinson turned in his tie and pinstriped suit for a cowboy hat and boots, following in the footsteps of his late cowgirl mother in learning and living the “cowboy way” with his horse Beamer by his side.

Twenty years later, Dorinson is proud to have worked on ranch crews, won buckles in cow work competitions and been a campfire teller of tales both tall and small alike.

These days, the Common Sense Cowboy hopes to never step foot inside the dreaded Beltway again . . . unless, of course, it’s to see a man about a horse.
