Thomas Jefferson’s [r]epublican America is Much Like The One Mike Church Promotes

Thomas Jefferson letter to John Cartwright. To Major John Cartwright Monticello, June 5, 1824 Dear and Venerable Sir, I am much indebted for your kind letter of February the 29th, and for your valuable volume on the English constitution.

Ryan: The Radical Budget to Nowhere

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Paul Ryan claims that his budget is radical. But what is so radical about continuing the expansion of government?

Perhaps the problem is not that too many roads lead to Rome, but rather that we pay far too much attention to them." "Perhaps […]
