This is an old LD deck of mine that I turned into something a bit more naughty.  It can now take out Artifacts, Creatures, Enchantments, and Lands and still beat down my opponent.

Green

4X Argothian Wurm
4X Naturalize
4X Birds of Paradise
2X Dwell on the Past
2X Splinter

Red

2X Avalanche Riders
2X Stone Rain
2X Molten Rain
2X Shatter
2X Rack and Ruin
2X Sowing Salt

Black

2X Eradicate
1X Demonic Tutor

Multi

4X Terminate
2X Hull Breach

Artifact

2X Crucible of Worlds
1X Sol Ring

Land / Mana Sources

3X Bayou
3X Taiga
3X Badlands
2X Wasteland
2X Wooded Foothills
1X Bloodstained Mire
1X Strip Mine
1X Mox Jet
1X Mox Ruby
1X Mox Emerald
1X Black Lotus
1X Lotus Petal

Side

3X Swords to Plowshares
2X Sowing Salt
2X Splinter
2X Tormod's Crypt
2X Flashfires
2X Boil
2X Creeping Mold

A friend of mine has actually outlawed me from playing this deck at his house.  I blow up everything, and I mean everything he plays.  If he doesn't counter my threats even more threats get through.  If he can't counter enough of my stuff he usually concedes.

In reading this decklist, I felt that you have too much artifact/enchantment/creature hate.  You would probably be better off focusing more on the mana denial plan.  You could also consider cutting down to 2 colors (RG) for consistency.  The beauty of using LD is that you don't need to worry about high-CC threats which you can't deal with using burn spells.  Thus, red is all you need for removal.  For example (this list is really rough but I'm sure you get the point):
4 BoP / werebear (the bear beats as well as adds mana)
4 eternal witness (sooooo good)
4 argothian wurm
4 elvish spirit guide
2 gorilla shaman / hull breach
2 genesis
4 avalanche riders
4 ice storm / pillage
4 stone rain
4 lightning bolt
2 hull breach
4 wasteland
4 taiga
4 wooded foothills
2 mountain
4 forest
1 strip mine
1 sol ring
1 black lotus
1 mox emerald
1 mox ruby
1 lotus petal

Life is like a penis--when it's soft, you can't beat it, but when it's hard, you get screwed.

The Deck list you posted Covetous is mostly what this deck was like before I modified it.  It was just a red green ld deck.  Since Crucible was printed, it allows easier land distruction with Wasteland and Stripmine.  

My build has 8 ld spells, 3 lands with strip effects, and 4 Argothian Wurms where an opponent chooses to sac a land.

This leaves me room to deal with Artifacts, Creatures, and Enchantments.  Most LD spells cost 3 and Chalice for 3 against a straight up LD deck owns.  This deck has threats to take out any number of threats your opponents put into play.
