A few weeks ago, Logos School had their annual grandparents’ day, in which the living ancestors of the students visited the classrooms, and saw the special assemblies, and generally had a good time. In the afternoon, Nancy was able to see the music performance as the kids demonstrated the kind of music education that is …
Gedunk Government
So then, it appears as though the president is making a hash of it. The Unaffordable Care Act supplies the corned beef, the hard leftism of his administration would be the little diced potatos that we see everywhere, and this latest scandal triad is the hot grease that makes the whole thing sizzle and pop …
