Posted on 30 November 2005 by Diana Sroka

Liberals are more than happy to eviscerate President Bush for his service in the Texas Air National Guard during the Vietnam War, for instance “never served a day in uniform in his life” movie maker Michael Moore calling the President a “deserter.” Popularity: 4% [?] Continue Reading

Bring back tradition

Posted on 30 November 2005 by Robert Fafinski
