I listened to the Democratic Debate. Hillary Clinton claimed that 90 people are killed by guns every day. I assume she is talking about people in this country. (or are we looking at what the definition of is is) That’s amazing. 90 x 365 = 32,850. Can anybody break down who is doing all this killing: Felons, Gang Members, Illegals, Terrorists, Police, Military, White, Black, Hispanic.

Change can’t be accomplished until there is a crisis. Well we have a crisis. Millions of healthcare policies are being cancelled and what does obamacare have in place to replace these policies? My understanding is the software to process payments is being constructed. Wow. That being said there is no way millions of policies can be processed to meet a deadline for the beginning of 2014.

According to the Air Force, the vehicles are part of the military’s traditional vehicle lease program and will displace replacement-eligible vehicles on a one-for-one basis, primarily...

Every night 10 men went to their local town bar to drink. The total cost was $500 and everybody drank as much as they could. All ten were satisfied. The bar tab was paid this way: One guy, Mr. Billionaire, paid the most (because he was rich) = $250. Another guy, Mr. Millionaire paid $100. Three guys were well off and paid $50 each = $150. But the five others paid nothing. Time past and the bar owner found that he was charging these fellows too much. So he decided to give some of the bar tab back. One would...
