American Thinker Exposes Lies About Offshore Drilling

Posted on April 28th, 2009 by macaoidh

Fontova exposes the facts about offshore oil drilling and why it is not only not a threat to the environment [...]

DC Voucher Destruction A Stain On Obama’s Honor, Credibility; Republicans Should Fix It

Posted on April 24th, 2009 by macaoidh
