Mitch Purposefully Ruins Everything He Touches

Yesterday David Williams unveiled his state government management policy. We don’t think it’s worthy of a story on its own so we didn’t run it. We’d rather focus on his jesus meltdown. [WFPL] Just a note that absentee voting in the gubernatorial election is down about 70 percent from 2007. [Press Release] The state has [...]

Jonathan Miller Is Still Foaming At The Mouth
July 6th, 2011 · No Comments
