Good Morning, News!

A surviving suspect of the Mumbai terrorist attacks has implicated Pakistan. In response Pakistan reminded the man, "Snitches get stitches."

After winning his Georgia runoff, Senator Saxby Chambliss gave credit to Sarah Palin for firing up his hillbilly base. Nope, she's not going away.

President elect Obama hires New Mexico governor Bill Richardson to fill the commerce secretary post -- the second rival he's placed in a high powered position. This inspired John McCain to shoot up his hand yelling, "OOH! Dept. of Veterans Affairs! OOH! Right here!"

Defense Secretary Robert Gates is willing to put the ball in motion to close Guantanamo and pull troops out of Iraq. Ummm... Bush who?

The big three automakers brace for a bailout decision from congress begging, "Bankruptcy isn't an option!" You know... think I might have to disagree with you there.

"Teabag Heals Stroke Victim in Britain." Heh... heh... heh...

And DO NOT end your day without watching a slew of celebs (including Neil Patrick Harris, Jack Black, John C. Reilly, Margaret Cho, Maya Rudolph and more) in this hilarioso video aptly entitled "Prop 8: The Musical!"
