FINALLY!

After several months of Norm Coleman assishness, Al Franken is finally named the second Senator (elect) from the great state of Minnesota. Go Vikings!

Anyway, it is now time for the Democrats to grow a pair and get something substantial done. I, for example, want real health care reform WITH A PUBLIC OPTION. If the Dems -- yes, including you, Obama -- can't get this done now, you are going to lose seats in 2010 ... and probably should.

TL Out!

STUFF

I know I haven't posted in a while, but (I swear) I couldn't actually get to the site. Anyway, here are a couple things that are totally awesome ... First, look, a kitten sleeping in a wine glass! How cute is that!?

And then there's this ...

Fossil remains
Second, an archaeological team, digging in Washington DC , has uncovered 10,000 year old bones and fossil remains of what is believed to be the first Republican Politician....

Funny, right!?

OBAMA IS TREKKING LEFT

I know Obama isn't perfect, but (I'm sorry) I just love this guy ... I can't help it. First, we find out that he reads Spider-Man. And now we find out he really likes Star Trek. Here's an excerpt from a recent Newsweek interview:

And the last movie you saw?

Now, movies I've been doing OK [with] because it turns out we got this nice theater on the ground floor of my house … So Star Trek, we saw this weekend, which I thought was good. Everybody was saying I was Spock, so I figured I should check it out and—[the president makes the Vulcan salute with his hand].

Very good.

Yes, absolutely.

Did you watch that when you were growing up?

I used to love Star Trek. You know, Star Trek was ahead of its time. There was a whole—the special effects weren't real good, but the storylines were always evocative, you know, there was a little commentary and a little pop philosophy for a 10-year-old to absorb.

A lot of U.N. stuff.

Yes, exactly, right.

I swear, Barack might just be the coolest guy on the planet right now. In fact, he might just be the coolest guy in the entire United Federation of Planets.
