Horrible Horoscopes: Sagittarius

Sagittarius, adults are forced to watch and listen to every grueling moment of an election. We can’t ignore the BS spewing from each candidate’s mouth. If we want to turn of the lies and replace them with, say, The Empire Strikes Back, we can’t. We’re grown-ups.

Opinion: Obamacare Should Win It For Mitt Romney
