LA Times Front Page: Hillary Clinton Being ‘Swift-Boated’ by GOP A
Sometimes it’s better to stay in bed and not bother reading the newspaper or watching the political talk shows. This Sunday sadly started out that way as I unfortunately happened upon a Los Angeles Times front-page article entitled “GOP Activists Circling Clinton's Campaign.”Frankly, the author and the paper’s editors should be ashamed of themselves for placing such biased tripe so prominently in…
