This one's via John Cole: It seems that our old friends The Family (you know, that fuck joint in Washington DC that's the DC home of good, moral, Christian Republican men like John Ensign, Zack Wamp, Mark Sanford, and other laughable hypocrites) also have a member in the Ugandan Parliament who has introduced legislation in that country to make homosexuality a death penalty offense...

John Cole finds Chuck Todd wanking away on Twitter. Shorter Chuck Todd: It’s only big news if the Democrats fail! I guess he didn’t pick up on the fact that if they had failed to get the 60 votes, HCR would, for all intents and purposes, be dead in the short run, as the Republicans would filibuster.
