This brief excerpt from a Cheers & Jeers column running in the Feb. 7 Press & Sun-Bulletin:

As I have often done in the past, I point you to yet another excellent article from American Thinker, this one titled: Making the World Safe for Marxism, written by Randall Hoven. He makes the observation that nowadays if you call a duck a duck (if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, [...]
