The joke’s on us!
Have you ever noticed the resemblance between comedian Robin Williams and Chief Justice John Roberts? Have you ever seen them in the same room at the same time? Is it possible they are one and the same person? Continue reading
Pledge: Medicare
Every version of the Ryan budget bill has represented a direct attack on Medicare.

Social Security and Medicare will be chipped away until sometime in the future they are hollowed out and meaningless.
