Today I have lost my voice, but not my resolve…

Today was a sad day for me. I went to a council meeting, to participate in the due process of my local government, only to find that I had no voice in that hallowed chamber. I was forced to sit mute while others decided issues that affect me and many others ...

Military Flu Shot Guinea Pigs

As you can see here, the Armed Forces will soon be forced to take the 'swine flu' vaccine, of both doubtful merit and safety, whether they want it or not.  To subject those who have chosen to wear the uniform to de facto drug testing, which the link above  quotes the USAF's General ...
