With all due respect to the results, which I'm so damn happy about, I'd wish the local news here would give more information about this.
I'm beginning to be really worried.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I looked at the exit poll stuff on Prop 8 on Cnn.com. It seems...um...crazy. And antithetical, for the most part. Young people? More likely to be against than older? BWHAHUH? College-educated vs. non, too? Am I reading it wrong?
I don't GET it. Why are people so threatened by this?

Oh wait. One last thought before I really, truly go to bed.
That lovely photo of the Obama family pinged something that might seem inconsequential but really struck me hard.
They eschewed the tacky redwhiteblue of fake patriotism in their outfits that I've seen on every single winning politician I think I've ever watched.
Clothes don't make the man, to be sure. But refusing to bow to prescribed traditions is so refreshing, I can't adequately describe how I felt when I realized it.
It's as if there is no curtain to look behind anymore. Wow. Does that even make sense?

Why, on earth, half of the comments in Israel about the results seems to think Obama is Muslim? Still? Seriously?
People...

So, Blago gets to pick a Senator AND a congressman. Rahm Emmanual has accepted the position as uh Chief of Staff (I think, I was only halfway paying attention.)

Ynet. I know, I know, I shouldn't read the comments there...

Oh, Shir, if they didn't think that, they wouldn't be proper Ynet talkback-ers, you know?
