When Chuck Norris popped up in my search results while I was researching the health care reform bill, my first thought was “Who does he think he is?”, followed quickly by, “But then, who do I think I am?”
Norris has decided to uncover the dirty secrets of the health care reform bill on Townhall.com. The [...]
