• Senators Seek To Continue Government Spying On You Without Justification

  
  That's My Congress — Authority: 478
  Those of us who still believe that the promises of the Constitution should be kept cannot win the debate in increments, begging for scraps of portions of our rights.

As I told you yesterday, S. 1776 is a deficit busting bribe to the doctors’ lobby to support Obamacare. If this passes, Obamacare will probably ...
