  1. What are these conservatards going to do? Stand in front of a podium and blow more hot air like they have done for the past 50 years? What exactly have they managed to "conserve?" Absolutely nothing! Most of those groups mentioned in the article are controlled by the same neocons who are responsible for all these wars. Conservatism is a failed doctrine and part of the same failed, corrupt system as liberals and leftists and they all have a vested interest in keeping the same system going. They are worthless and basically in the way.

  2. Sometimes, one or two of the other residents would stop into Miss Elizabeth’s room, and we’d have an old fashioned gabfest with Frosty lying on the floor.

    The old man went on to explain to the boy that the
    three men who seemed to be in a heated discussion weren’t really arguing.
    Instead, he sewed animal pelts together to make a warm coat and blankets.

  3. The introduction of know-how within the academic discipline has produced the tactic of studying and data sharing, an interactive and enjoyable-crammed exercise. Expertise is certainly 1 of God's biggest gifts to mankind. http://www.sourcepilani.com/
