Back in June I discussed Sen.

We know it’s a major component of the left’s campaign strategy for 2016: demagogue the Confederate flag and make Southern Republicans PROVE they are not racists. It’s a move that would make Big Barry and Saul Alinsky’s rotting corpse proud.

Baltimore is run by Liberals, and has been for many decades. The barbaric anarchy in the streets of Baltimore. this April 27, 2015, is a true embarrassment even for Baltimore, a city, not unlike Detroit, Michigan, that has long been in a state of perpetual decline.

It is hard to believe how fast time flies. When I was 18 major things were happening in our country. I was fully aware of Selma and the march because Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a resident of Atlanta.

I was peacefully shopping at our local Wal-Mart. It is a joy to be in that particular store, although I normally hate the crowds at them elsewhere. In another town where I used to live there were 2 stores.
