Usual Suspects
Matthis skates again
Apparently the last Board member voted yesterday and Matthis gets to burn as many flags as he wants in the name of the IVAW. If Matthis can be believed the deciding vote was cast by octogenarian Wes Davey pictured below delivering an ultimatum to John McCain at the Republican National Convention in 2008; Of course, […]
Matthis screwed to the wall
