Afghanistan Voter Fraud and the Black Panthers
Afghanistan Voter Fraud and the Black Panthers – Dick Young After the recent parliamentary vote that received very little attendance, Afghanistan is waiting for the flood of voter fraud complaints to come in.

Rubio Leads the Pack in Florida
Rubio in Florida Lead In all the talk about Christine O’Donnell’s win in Delaware, another Tea Party patriot’s recent strength was somewhat ignored.

How Obama Makes Cuba Look Conservative
