Posted on December 16, 2013December 16, 2013 by John Hawkins

Saudi Arabia has always been complicated.

Posted on December 12, 2013December 12, 2013 by John Hawkins

The problem with Republicans like Paul Ryan and John Boehner is that they talk a great game and they even vote the right way when it doesn’t matter, but when it’s time to actually take action, they always work with Democrats to undermine conservatives.
