The same media routinely dismissed Reagan as a “B” movie actor and a “crazy cowboy” who was going to [...]

Chalk One Up for the Grassroots

This brief excerpt from an AP article illustrates exactly why we do not have a passed health care nationalization bill sitting on the President’s desk waiting for his signature.
