Remember, one park ranger told the Washington Times that “We’ve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can”. We’ve seen this time and time again during Shutdown Theater. Now, the Obama/Holder highly politicized, partisan, and unequal justice DOJ goes a step further (NBC LA) Instead of showing critical missing children bulletins, […]

I was eminently impressed that the speech actually started on time. I was unimpressed that he decided to make his plea from the same spot in which Joe Biden proclaimed that passing Obamacare was a “big f’ing deal“.
