A Conservative Government
By Daddy
Las Vegas — With the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett, like it or not it appears that we'll have a conservative government for at least a few months and possibly for years.

If Judge Barrett is confirmed, it will take years to bring our government back to the middle and that task will require perseverance.
