The American People Will Be Appalled To

Few Things Infuse A Member Of Congress With More Courage Than Self-imposed Term Limits Or An Imminent Retirement. The Issues They Choose To Focus On In Their Final Months Say A Great Deal About What Are Really The Most Important Issues In The Country.

I Asked Chief Justice John Roberts About This Definition Of Life - You Know, What Is Life? The Supreme Court Can't Figure It Out Or Doesn't Want Us To Figure It Out; The Fact That We Know That There Is No Life If There's No Heartbeat And Brainwaves.
