Your Crony Government Hard at Work Costing You Money Credit my brothers for introducing me to military jargon. SNAFU, TARFU, and FUBAR are said to date from the 1940’s and while crude expressions, these do a better job of summing up a situation than any essay on the subject. I think the terms fit well […]

Hillary’s policies will be four more years of Obama’s policies which means we will never dig ourselves out of the hole they […]
