  • POTUS Jobs Conference

    Number of comments: 2
    The President’s Job Conference at the White House today was just another pathetic joke.  BHO is following in the footsteps of Hoover and FDR at making an economic bubble into a disaster.  Socialism never works.  The laws of economics are like the laws of physics.  When governments raise taxes, they kill [...]

Fun movie, personally,  because the story takes place in Memphis, Tennessee.   West Tennessee is home to [...]
