Go to Hell French you never Trump Douche Nozzle!
Why are we linking to this pig and this pig’s publication!
Wasn’t he Bill Kristols butt-boy who was going to vanquish Trump and save us from Hillary?
To a leftist, anything and everything - everything! - is an excuse to exert more and more strangling control over the law-abiding citizenry.
That is how you know the Bushies are really globalists: Bush did nothing to protect our borders, but squandered our soldiers’ lives halfway around the world like any war-mongering Democrat (for most wars are begun by Democrats).
His watch created the Patriot (Control) Act and the TSA, which specializes in oppressing everyone except the actual terrorists.
