I heard a phrase on the news the other day. The talking head was prattling on about a deceased member of the Rolling Stones and the investigation of his death being reopened. The original cause of death was listed as, “Death By Misadventure.” I hadn’t heard that one before, but in my current state...

Cap and Tax. DeathCare. Immigration ‘Reform’. Spendulus legislation. Bailouts. More bailouts. An already mammoth government growing even more. Already ridiculous government spending getting even more outrageous. And they’re planning on spending more.
