This is a feature…..NOT a bug…..to the Administration. The less people pay attention, the more likely they can get what they want through the Congress……
[...] how badly the blog “Jumping in Pools” can burn you. It’s all of a piece with the fake Chamber of Commerce press conference. Once Leftists and puckish anarchists make truth impossible to find, people will give up on [...]
