THE ONLY THING TO FEAR IS FEAR ITSELF The Metropolitan Correctional Facility located across from the Federal Court House in Foley Square, Lower Manhattan. (November 17, Foley Square, NYC) The hardest core right wingers, neo-cons and GOP hawks are proving to be what they have long been suspected of being – fear-mongering cowards.
