Why I’ll be at The Rally to Restore Sanity
October 27, 2010
I’m not a lifelong Liberal. I’ve always been fortunate/cursed to see both sides to any issue. Because of that, I often feel paralyzed about making a voting decision. And, unlike many people, I can’t get past my dislike of a politician and simply vote the party line. But I’ve been around long enough now to […]

LBL picked it up at that exact same second that NH came rushing into the room, yelling “There is something wrong with […]
