Here you go. Height of Hypocricy. The Republicans are out there bashing gays and then they come out. Who's next? since Ann Coulter is not a subject of interest any more, I am waiting for either Rush or Glen Beck.

Entitlements Out of Control Unfortunately my photo of the price listings at Acadia National Park turns out to be insanely blurry. My point, however, was that the National Park Service’s senior citizen discounts are absurdly generous.

Instead of a Constitutional convention, we need a budget convention.
