Ink By The Barrel 6/1

Democrats never let a good tragedy go to waste and Sleepy Joe never misses an opportunity to talk about gun control.  Rod Miller thinks that we need more regulation on guns.  Rex Rammell should have listened to Mark Twain and not picked a fight with a guy who buys ink by the barrel or has an infinite supply of electrons.

The county assessor is required to attend yearly courses to make sure your taxes are assessed accurately.  There is one county assessor in Wyoming that has made no attempt to do that--her entire term.  Elected officials must be accountable to their voters--they must uphold the law.  And this assessor has not done that.

A Constitution Bee 4/27
