Ensure that you apply the appropriate emphasis on the word stupid. Stupid is not the adjective describing a tax. Rather, it is like the income tax – the price we pay politicians for the privilege to earn money. The stupid tax is the price we pay for the privilege to be stupid. All of us and I’m in there too

Recently, I learned of yet another newsworthy story of the presidential campaign ignored by most media. It happened at a political rally during the playing of our National Anthem. Every person knows that when the Anthem plays, placing your hand over your heart, removing your hat if you are a man, or saluting if you belong to a uniformed service and are wearing your uniform is an act of rendering honor to the United States of America. In this scene, you’ll see two Presidential contenders doing that while one nonchalantly folds his hands.

So very true, and so very sad. Great site!

Thank you all for your service and sacrifices, and for continuing the good fight online!

There are those of us in the younger generations who managed to turn out ok and survive the public education (propaganda) system- maybe not enough of us to fix things, but that won't stop some of us from trying!
