The one fact covered up in mainstream media headlines on the White House Shooting is that Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez, who tried to shoot at President Obama and his family at The White House and from a distance last Friday, only to be caught five days later, was a massive nutcase Obama-hater. We hear about these … Read more

More at Zennie62.com I created this video “way back” in 2007 and during a Democratic fund raiser at the Sheraton Palace in San Francisco, where the guest of honor was then-DNC Chairman Howard Dean. The question is a simple one: why are you a Democrat. But as simple as the question may be, it’s an … Read more
