“THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with [...]
On July 25, President Barack Obama & Speaker of the House John Boehner went “Head to Head” in “Back to Back” speeches about the ongoing Debt Crisis.
