On Principle and In Fact, AKIN MUST GO!!!

Tuesday, August 21st, 2012

 

In The most important election since 1860, a great deal is at stake.

In order to start the process of taking our nation back, restoring the principles of our founders and framers, congress is equally as important as the presidency.

With the House currently controlled by conservatives, the urgency to keep it that way is pressing.

An Anti American, an Idiot and a Hypocrite

Back in 1989, the United States Supreme Court found that burning an American flag was protected as free speech.
