Americans are surviving one of the most horrible recessions, and a government that doesn't represent the people. Our news media are sellouts and journalist have become dog sicking pets. Conservatives are being ostracized for trying to help. The democratic party has become lost in it's lust for power. All this and more to come as we peel away the bull sh-t and look at things through the eyes of our founding fathers and the constitution. Shedding tusks refers to shedding big government and restoring the state government. Enjoy.
