Well, if that’s the case, then why all [...]
The fine folks over at Uncorrelated have a couple of good points about Sen. Reid’s visit to BYU. Harry Reid tried to pass himself off as a moderate Democrat to remain in good standing with the BYU crowd, but according to a fellow DCS member who was in attendance at the program, several points were [...]
