The Revolutionary War's 250th anniversary is April 19th. American colonies banned together and resisted monarchical rule. While not war, this movement is definitely a revolution. So women wanting to attend the next protest may appreciate men handling the cooking duties for Easter this year.

Any plus to society should be multiplied not divided. Sure would be nice if our government would start using its powers for good instead of evil.
I said it 30 years ago and I'll say it again today: you cannot balance the budget on the backs of working people.
My Shutdown Message
My message today is the same as it was nearly 30 years ago when Newt Gingrich shut down the government: you cannot balance the budget on the backs of vulnerable and working people.
