America claims to be a free country.

We are in fact controlled, penalized and limited by thousands of petty rules and regulations on nearly everything you do and everything you own. The penalty for which is always quickly escalated to arrest and police involvement.

Is that a free country?

"Joke"??? I was expecting a joke like in Monty Python, where it would have to be carefully translated, word at a time, from German to English... but it was fairly lame.

— because he jokingly asked if the water being handed out on the delayed flight was vodka, according to new reports.

Never mind I duckduckwented it.

A liar, a cheat, and a fraud walk into a bar and order vodka. “Hello, Hillary,” the bartender says.
