The only thing shocking about this is that Hillary Clinton didn’t go and call what happened the other month a coup. Had she done that, all aid would have had to be cut, per US law (not that lawmakers, particularly those in Obama’s admin, follow the law) The Obama administration on Thursday cut all non-humanitarian […]

You know what happens when anyone challenges one of the religious doctrines of the Left? If you guessed “reasoned debate,” well, then, you buy me the tequila Global warming deniers seem to be in the same camp as so-called birthers (crazies who believe conspiracy theories that President Obama isn’t a US citizen).
