  —The Underground Conservative

  Number of comments: 2
  Right now, there’s a joke of a debate going on regarding the ObamaCare takeover of the health care system in the House of Representatives. A joke in that there is no real debate. House Democrats have pretty much silenced all opposition, much like the tyrants and dictators they have shown [...]

  —Brewtown Gumshoe

  One-third of the cost of our health care system is purely waste.
