Thank God for Fox, Rush, Glenn and Hannity.
During World War 11 we had Tokyo Rose and Now we have ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and MSNBC.
God help us if come November 7th and we still have there “GOD” in power.
Hopefully on that date these liars will know the american people are not as stupid as they make us out to be.
