Hustler Will Pay $1 Million For Mitt Romney’s Tax Returns

Clinton Saga Finally Takes a Serious Turn

Good thing the DNA took down the Danny Williams story. President Clinton’s approval ratings have gone up every time bad news comes out. If he had turned out to have a love child by a black whore, would they have reached 100 percent?
