One Little Victory

If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!Just a few noteworthy items from Wednesday… Very good NBC video footage walking through the bin Laden compound, and a better understanding of what was meant by a “firefight.” The House Republicans have now cynically redefined “rape” to promote their [...]
