I watched part of the big debate this week. Can you believe Hannah Brown picked that lousy dog-food jingle singer over the other guy? Hey, what can I say, “The Bachelorette” was way more educational than the first Democratic debate. At least with “The Bachelorette,” I … [Read more...]

Come Heller high water … the Independence Day edition
