The No Kool-Aid Zone Blog
I don't drink the Kool-Aid. For Anyone.
Go, Kerri, Go!
A couple weeks back, I posted about my friend, Kerri Linto Smith, and the hassle she was getting to simply sell pillows on the internet (the cost to do so, simply to comply with the bureaucratic nonsense, is well over $4000). What’s cool is that now The Blaze has picked up her story, and she…
Wouldn't It Be Fun to be a Liberal?
