First cut for a Friday (the 13th! again!) morning . . . Be sure to keep up to date with the North Korean missile launch via Henderson’s posts. Obama went to Germany during the election, and they return the love: “Obama Fingers“. Wait! I thought the idea was to nationalize health care, not throw veterans […]
Fresh, hot cup o’ links for you. . . .now with morning update (new links at the top)! The bad news is that we’re only a year away from the next election cycle. The good news is that the Democrats fear a looming train wreck. And speaking of panic . . . . One of […]
