BHO, Theoretically Best President EVAR!

by Smitty Of course, as I’m wont to say, “The difference between theory and practice is greater in practice than in theory.” The Right Scoop, and Radio Equalizer  point to Al “Not so” Sharpton, who seemingly cannot differentiate between public and private sector: One of the reasons that I think people do not understand that unemployment […]
