February 12th, 2009 · 5 Comments

Fred Tausch of Nashua, N.H., thinks it’s worth spending $100,000 of his own money to do something to stop the so-called “Economic Stimulus Package” from becoming law, according to a UnionLeader.com report early this morning.  In appreciation of his efforts, which include development of the S.T.E.W.A.R.D. web site, I felt compelled to share his overview [...]
