Fifty-nine percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey say lawmakers should continue working on the legislation, a rise of 6 points since August. But only a […]

I linked to this article in the post below, but it is so important that this article requires much more attention. Pass this around to everyone you know. Read this to your senior citizen parents. Help them pas it along. This is what DC is planning to do to us and it is a crime. […]
