A newly-formed subcommittee of the RNC Committee on Rules will hold their first meeting this Friday in Washington, D.C.

The shooter at LAX murdered a fellow human being (an unarmed TSA employee), wounded numerous others, disrupted the lives of thousands more and created an emergency situation that wasted tens of thousands of dollars of resources. Without question this is unacceptable. His actions were a blatant disregard for the rule of law and the private […]
Will Barack Obama kill, or financially ruin, me? Interesting question.

An environment of largely unearned trust at that. Limiting our trust only to our circle of family, friends and colleagues would severely limit our ability […]
Greetings.

I never considered it myself until I met the mother of one of my daughters preschool friends at the pool […]
