If you’ve been reading 1115.org for a while, you’ll remember our appearance on Live 105’s Madden Radio Disaster back in March.
Our man Madden is using his show on election eve to have a look at politics and the national and local elections. We’ll be debating someone from the Cal-Berkeley College Republicans, which should be […]

Eminem has a new video called “Mosh.” Seems he doesn’t like our President much.
Due in large part to liberal bloggers, “Mosh” made MTV’s TRL on Tuesday.
