Happy Fun Pundit - The Year In Review

Thanks all for coming by over the last year. We managed to get a quarter of a million viewers last year, which is a far cry from our goal of total world domination, but still very respectable. So for all you folks who like a few laughs along with your politics, I thought I might do a Happy Fun Pundit year in review. Plus, I figure this anniversary thing was worth one more milking. So here goes:

Whether 'tis nobler of the mind to take my chances with the possible pig virus, or to freakin' die when my heart gives out." Featuring a guest appearance by the fat guy with the minibike!
