“Second verse, same as the first”: from “I\’m Henry VIII, I Am” Herman\’s Hermits had a big hit with that song in 1965.

The Veterans Administration (VA) scandal has been major news for over a week. We now know that VA hospitals, run by the government (Secretary Eric Shinseki the top dog), are not just a mess, but a cesspool of corruption which has resulted in an unknown number of veterans dying before ever getting the treatment they need…as VA personnel figure out ways of cooking the data to make it seem as...

Ms. Obama was speaking at a gathering of high school seniors and their families in Topeka, Kansas – her speech being an alternative to the one she was dissuaded from making at their commencement exercises because it would overshadow the students\’ big day.

For going on a week now, mainstream media have been in an uproar over the horrific treatment afforded Hillary Clinton by that Clinton-hating, woman-hating, Democrat-hating subhuman pig, Karl Rove.
