PerTwo being the new GOP-adopted nickname for Democrat gubernatorial candidate Walter Dalton, a slam on his ties to incumbent Beverly Perdue and the notion that he’d continue the administration’s failed policies (Perdue/PerTwo ~ get it? Those wacky Republicans). In any event, speaking of failed policies under the Perdue/Dalton administration, North Carolina ranks at the top […]
So says MSNBC, via “Hardball” guest host Michael Smernconish and Salon senior writer Steve Kornacki, who advance the preposterous and insulting notion that any one who challenges or questions the motives of Attorney General Eric Holder, and by direct extension the Obama administration, in refusing to release relevant information about the disastrous and deadly Fast […]
Money that is, to the tune of about $10 billion (yes, with a B) for a few hundred jobs.
