This just in, Al Franken refuses to take the oath of office on a bible, and is insisting on using the Torah instead. OK, not really, but I figure it’s a good rumor to start, what with the whole Keith Ellison Koran thing. Interesting story on the creature from Wasilla in Vanity Fair<\/a>. The poor Republicans are all in a tizzy over it<\/a>. <\/p>\n

They seem to be in a bit of a tizzy over Al Franken, too. Their new meme is that the Democrats can push anything they want through the Senate, and the Republicans can’t stop ’em. If only that was actually true. It should work out well, though. The Democrats will allow them to poison anything that actually passes so that it doesn’t have a prayer of actually working, and then the Republicans can just say, “see, they had total control, and they screwed up all our good work during the Bush era.”<\/p>\n

So, it appears Mark Sanford was a serial diddler<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Sanford also said that he “crossed the lines” with a handful of other women during 20 years of marriage, but not as far as he did with his mistress.<\/p>\n

The ultimate line? What’s that, anal?<\/p>\n

A new ban on texting while driving takes effect where I live today. It’s a county law. The State is looking at one as well, but of course we don’t have a state government anymore in NY. On the plus side, the NY Senate standoff means Mayor Bloomberg no longer controls NYC schools, since that’s on law that was allowed to expire due to inaction. <\/p>\n

Well, that’s about all I can manage today, I guess. With all the lack of sleep and stress over the past few days, my neck is seized up tight, and is really killing me. No relief in sight, either. Sucks. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
