2006-02-16T07:15:44Z

by Ben Frank
This is a letter to all of those Americans that know what is really happening in America.

This is not acceptable.
All of those elected officials swore to Uphold and Defend the Constitution. They have collectively failed, whether due to bribes, blackmail, incompetence, collusion, etc we (…)
