Flying Rainbow Unicorn 2012!
I know I have put the boots to the National Republican Senatorial Committee more than a few times in the past, but they deserve much praise for this minute-long piece of delicious snark. I’d like to see a few more of these aimed at a few Democratic Senators. Debbie Stabenow, Claire McCaskill, Sherrod Brown, Ben [...]
Barack and Hillary Sitting in a Tree. P-U-N-C-H-I-N-G!
Have you ever played Pinochle, or some other bidding card game with a bad partner?
