The 10 Worst Congressmen Posted: 2 months ago by DerAlt
This is quite a group.
Even in politics these folks are standouts.
Number 3, Don Young of Alaska has recently added another shady episode with his adding of a 10 million dollar earmark to the I-75 road project in Florida. The earmark showed up after congress passed the bill but before the president signed it.
This is from 2006 but unfortunately it never seems to get old.

Congresman takes $40k bribe to steal $10 million Posted: 11 months ago by 2manyusernames
In 2005, Rep. Don Young (R-AK)waited until after the House and Senate passed a bill, but before the president signed it, to forge a passage granting $10 million for an interstate in Florida. His new wording targeted the money to a more specific project to connect Coconut Rd to that interstate. It's a boon for developer Daniel Aronoff, who held a $40,000 fundraiser for Young just before the earmark appeared.

Update to this. (R-AK)Don Young waited until after the House and Senate passed a bill, but before the president signed it to alter it without informing the senate/house so as to benefit a major "donator". Now he may actualy face criminal charges for his outrageous crime.

The 20 Worst Cover Songs in Pop Music History Posted: 1 year ago by Mershaullk
Covering other people's material is a mainstay in pop music. Why bother taking the time to write an original song when you can just recycle somebody else's hit, redo it with an acoustic guitar (or, if it's an acoustic song, with an electric guitar) and generate the same result?
