Why Blame the President?

Posted on June 15, 2013 by Jack Curtis

Anybody Know What ‘Republican’ Means, These Days?

Posted on June 4, 2013 by Jack Curtis

Posted on January 8, 2013 by Jack Curtis

Tell me please, who is the sickest nutcase? The politician spending 40% more public money than is available, or the ranting, raving street demonstrator insisting that he do so? Everybody in Spain knows the country is broke; we even know … Continue reading →
