Throwback Friday: The JibJab Bush - Kerry Video

They were founded in 1999, but didn't hit it big until the 2004 US presidential election when they released the video for "This Land." The video set a new bar for what online political... Read More

He is nice guy, and I feel he needs a good wife too. Can you give me some tips that I... Read More

We now... Read More
