    Jim I think the only one sharing secrets with this White House is Wikileaks.

  • Let's hope 2012 is a conservative tsunami. But it will only be so if the Pubbies follow through on their pledges to tax less, spend [much] less, drastically reduce the size of government and eliminate most of government's regulatory power.

    Please Dear God, let us find another Reagan (and Thatcher) in our midst so my grandkids can enjoy the same kind of country I grew up in.
