Patriotic Drunk Rednecks

Something like 15% of American citizens believe Barack Obama is Muslim.  Including the woman in this video.  But I'm not posting this clip to make fun of her.  I mean, the woman does say she's a Hillary supporter!  (Okay, maybe I'm making a bit of fun. )At any rate, even when it has nothing to […]

McCain Picks Sexy Librarian For VP Slot

(And yes, I'm cribbing that joke directly from Stephen Colbert)

Dennis Kucinich at the DNC
