America Quotes

There are 316 million people in the United States of America. About six million of them watch ‘Homeland,’ Showtime’s thriller about world terror, paranoia, and bipolar disorder.

I can recognize the calls of practically every bird in North America. There are some in Africa I don’t know, though Picture Quote #1

Make no mistake about it. These are not ‘kookie’ birds. Right now the greatest player, the big tent on the political scene in America, is called the Tea Party movement Picture Quote #1
