Last year, we did a “Top Ten of 2010” List highlighting the highs & lows of the Year in Review. Since 2011 is now signing off, let’s go through The Top Eleven! #11 – WEINERGATE: If I’d have limited this to a “Top Ten” list, Anthony’s Weiner would not have made the list, but since [...]
I’ve been critical of both the Democratic and Republican Parties over the issues that have faced our Nation, and I believe that, as a Conservative, I have been extremely fair.
