Campaign Music Video For Christine O’Donnell

Also, not seeing Rock Peters ever being inducted into the Rock-N- Roll Hall of Fame.  I can forgive a lot of things, but really awful music/lyrics isn’t one of them.  So very, very bad.  [...]

Angry at Joe Biden? You are not alone.

Is it okay to be mad at Obama and Biden yet?

While some of us are perturbed about the civil liberties stuff, and others are miffed about not getting their Health Care Reform Pony, and still others are upset because the Democrats are ceding so much ground to the vile GOP needlessly, Donviti is mad about all of it.
