Even the late great William F. Buckley  on rare occasion resorted to profanity, and as for myself, my speaking skills fall short of those of Buckley.   However Alan Greyson seems utterly incapable of expressing disapproval without having to resort to

It seems that Bobby Gibbs has become very hard to ignore.    Former Vice President Dick Cheney, father of Liz, leveled from very specific charges at the Obama administration.    Included was the charge the the Obama much proclaimed new plan announced
