A GOVERNMENT BIG ENOUGH TO GIVE YOU EVERYTHING YOU WANT, IS STRONG ENOUGH TO TAKE EVERYTHING YOU HAVE Thomas Jefferson
Ya know, I’ve been thinking, what would be a fitting award for an elected official that has used his office to attack a private citizen. Then, like a bolt of lighting, it came to me!
