Rapid Fire

I spent today cleaning (no need for jokes), so this will have to be quick.

• Democrats pledge to reverse unions' decline: No kidding. How altruistic of them to protect the power of a group that consistently delivers votes to the the other party. Oh wait, scratch that, reverse.
  
• I am aware that Rove has resigned. I just don't have anything to say about it.
  
• I was not invited. I wouldn't have gone, though.
  
• I am against the Real ID Act. Do I have to explain this? The next step is just to station an American soldier in every household in order to catch terrorists. Sure that's unconstitutional, but only for now.
• I bet I scared you a little by having a link in that last line :-)
• And yet, this doesn't bother me all that much.
• An interesting comparison of Health Care proposals among the candidates of both parties. I like most of what the Republicans have to say (SHOCKER!). Tax Deduction are two of my favorite words--but only when right next to each other. Tancredo's attempt to bring Health Care back to his pet issue looks a little forced, but hey, who can blame him? The Blurb about Romney makes him look a tad, well, untrustworthy--dare I say, Kerry-esque. Sadly I can't really blame that on that particular "liberal" medium. But boy has Romney got hair.
• On the lighter side, like it does most gay men, the first minutes of The Nines...er...excites me. Especially around minute 4:45.
