Joe Scarborough Attacks Rosie O'Donnell, Barbara Walters & ABC For debating a serious issue. Scarborough brings in the political expert Danny Bonaduce, who says that O'Donnell should be 'strung up for treason' and 'aiding and abetting the enemy'. He then goes on to seriously defend that point.
I guess I was wrong on the sex offender part. Here's what wikipedia has to say:
Dante Daniel Bonaduce (pronounced /bQnYdutƒi/) (born August 13, 1959 in Broomall, Pennsylvania) is an actor, disc jockey, and game show host. He is the son of veteran TV writer/producer Joseph Bonaduce. He originally gained fame in the television series The Partridge Family. Bonaduce played the wisecracking Danny Partridge, who was a constant bane of the Family's manager, played by Dave Madden. Bonaduce has said that he owes a lot to Madden, who took him into his home when young Danny's family was in domestic strife.
He married Setsuko Hattori in 1985 and divorced her in 1988. On November 4, 1990, he met his second wife, Gretchen Hillmer on a blind date. They have two children together, Countess Isabella Michaela Bonaduce (born November 23, 1994) and Count Dante Jean Michel Bonaduce (born February 14, 2001)
As an adult, Bonaduce boxed Donny Osmond in a charity event and later boxed former Brady Barry Williams in a separate event. Bonaduce won both contests gaining a decision over Osmond and a TKO over Williams. He has had a successful career as a radio announcer and co-host of The Other Half a daytime talk show positioned as a complementary show to The View, on which he starred with Mario Lopez and Dick Clark. The show lasted from 2001 to 2003. He started his radio career on WEGX in Philadelphia. Bonaduce went to KKFR in Phoenix, Arizona, a stint which soon ended after he was charged with assaulting a transvestite prostitute, Darius Barney. Once that was settled, Bonaduce was successful at WLUP in Chicago. Later, Danny hosted weekday mornings in Detroit, Michigan at WKQI then flying to Chicago for afternoons at WLUP. Then in Los Angeles co- hosting the morning drive-time show on Star 98.7 FM (KYSR) with Jamie White. He is a frequent guest on the Loveline radio program.
In 2001 he released his autobiography, Random Acts of Badness.
Bonaduce filed a lawsuit against Jamie White on September 28, 2005 for allegedly slandering him on air while he was in a rehab center called Milestones Ranch. He claims she lied about him showing up to work under the influence of drugs. Bonaduce claims he was never under the influence of drugs while at work. The outcome is still pending.
He currently stars in Breaking Bonaduce, a 2005 reality television show on VH1. In August 2006, he hosted the tabloid-themed game show named Starface, which aired on the Game Show Network.
Bonaduce appeared on the Radio Chick show, where he and co-host Chuck Nice got into a heated debate over a comment Bonaduce made about his being fearless. Chuck Nice repeatedly called Bonaduce a dumbass, after Bonaduce referred to Nice as a "little man." Host Leslie Gold and Butch Brennan tried to calm down the argument to no avail, but Nice and Bonaduce ended up making up at the conclusion of the interview.
Recently, while eating in an outdoor cafe on Hollywood Boulevard, Bonaduce was asked by Mark Dice his opinions on the theory that President George W. Bush or elements within the American government were behind 9/11; Bonaduce (a self- described Republican and patriot) gave a curse-filled response during which he expressed his support for George W. Bush and he also declared he is a proud Republican, the video was posted on http://Youtube.com (see link below). Bonaduce has claimed that he and his family have received death threats since then.
Danny joined The Adam Carolla Show on January 2, 2007, replacing Dave Dameshek. [1]
Danny sometimes appears on Fox News, where he has suggested Jane Fonda should have been shot for treason. He also stated on MSNBC's Scarborough Country that "personally I think at this point if anyone had a rope thick enough, I think that Rosie should be strung up for treason", referring to Rosie O'Donnell.
Attended Pierce College Bonaduce's persistent fighting on the "Partridge Family" set with Jeremy Gelbwaks (first Chris) became problematic. The producers chose the quickest solution, and Gelbwaks was replaced after season one. In the late 1980s David Cassidy signed Bonaduce on as his opening act. He made a cameo appearance in a 1994 episode of Married With Children along with Partridge Family costar Dave Madden. Bonaduce received an "award" from The Soup and refused to read his speech then end up kissing the host. His personal assistant is Jaclyn Bradley, who does the music for Breaking Bonaduce. He has trained in the martial arts for over 20 years and holds black belts in multiple styles. He is a fan of director David Dillehunt. He was invited to the wedding of Duane Chapman a/k/a "Dog The Bounty Hunter" in 2006. Bonaduce's self-titled LP was released in 1973 by MGM Records. Bonaduce has admitted that his vocals can barely be heard on the album; most of the singing was provided by Bruce Roberts. Bonaduce has appeared as himself on the detective series, "Monk". His brother, John Bonaduce, has continued the family tradition of the "musical family". He drives a VW Bus and leads the choir at Notre Dame High School. John is extremely religious and his wife works with the Catholic Archdiocese. Bonaduce voted for George W. Bush in the 2004 election Ashley Massaro, current WWE Smackdown! diva and winner of the '05 diva search, was Bonaduce's personal trainer and appeared in several episodes of the first season. He guest-starred with J.D. Roth on an episode on Sex Wars. Five years later, Bonaduce would later work with Roth, behind-the-scenes on Breaking Bonaduce.
In 1991, he was arrested for beating up Darius Barney, a transvestite hooker. "When I picked him up," Bonaduce later explained, "I thought he was a girl. I picked him up, he got in my car. As soon as he got in and the dome light hit him, it was obvious. He wasn't a good transvestite. If he was a good transvestite, I might never had known. I was wasted. He gets in the car and I said, 'Oh, sorry, wrong car.' And he says, 'Well you took me off my corner, give me $40.00.' I said 'Dude, wrong car, hop out!' This went on for 6 or 7 minutes and he still wouldn't get out. So I get out of the car, opened his door and pulled him out of the car. But when I did, I see he's this huge guy, about 220 pounds. I weighed 150 pounds! I attacked him first, not because I wanted to, I just thought I was going to have to and I'm too small to take the punishment from a 220-pound man. If he had hit first, I would have gone down and stayed down. So I attacked him and it turned into a fight".
