Is Phil Robertson Wrong?

"It’s certainly a colorful expression of his personal preference." http://t.co/MKamR33GwZ — @mkhammer, putting it mildly — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) December 19, 2013 You’ll excuse my confusion, but amidst the hyperventilating screeches — GLAAD claiming that Phil Robertson was pushing “vile and extreme stereotypes” — maybe I missed what it was the Duck Dynasty patriarch […]

Brett Kimberlin’s Conspiracy Theory and Other Recent Legal Proceedings

Brett Kimberlin could have been sentenced to 230 years in federal prison “Kimberlin seemed to be the only one with a possible motive — to distract police attention from the Scyphers murder and delay or halt their quiet investigation of him.” – R.

After ObamaCare

Guest Blog by Dana from Ohio The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (aka Obamacare or the ACA) is proving to be difficult to implement. Can it be fixed?
