The Environmental Protection Agency is now attacking the Associated Press with a link to Breitbart.

Capricious, every once in a long while I hear someone use that word. It's one way of getting someones attention. Another one would be whenceforth, one of my favorites to slip into a conversation, very much an under used word. Do you mean “whence” or “henceforth”, perchance? “Whenceforth” is such a ...

So what are you proposing? Instead of Robert E. Lee Elementary School we call it “The shameful traitor Robert E.

chuckdee: these statues were largely erected after 1890, peaking about 1910. They really picked up after the Plessy v.
