Furthermore, the study found that Virginia ranked as number eleven and Maryland number twelve.

yup Congress
I think they have the whole dc area bombarded with microwaves
I don't know how anyone could look at people like the Clintons, Obama, Terry McCauliffe or Chris Van Hollen and disagree with this article.
