GOOD MORNING, BLOGTOWN! I love myself, I want you to love me. When I'm feelin' down, I want you above me. LET'S GO TO PRESS.

Tired of Republican obstructionist bullshit, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is working to limit the use of the filibuster when it comes to deciding on nominees for cabinet posts and the federal judiciary. To which the GOP will undoubtedly reply, "WAH WAH WAH."

Speaking of crybaby losers who hate America, the GOP has planned an organized assault (in other words, a pack of lies) to battle Obamacare.

Also crying like big crybaby losers about Obamacare: Insurance companies. Surprise, surprise, surprise.

More crybaby GOP bickering—this time against each other in a heated South Carolina race.

In much better news, Illinois got marriage equality today—making it the 16th state to do the right thing!

Alabama grants pardons to the Scottsboro Boys who were falsely accused in 1931 of raping two white women. I'm sure their ghosts are so very grateful.

A couple in Britain have been arrested under suspicion of holding three women captive for... gulp... 30 YEARS.

Today in "whoopsy": A huge cargo plane lands at the wrong, tiny airport—and it's going to be very interesting today when the plane tries to take off from a runway that's far too short. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT!

A soldier in Colorado who's accused of sex crimes is using a tried and true defense: "My evil twin did it!!"

AT&T and Verizon may be looking at a shareholder revolution for being so buddy-buddy with government spies, the NSA.

Nerds rejoice: aged comedians Monty Python are reuniting for a live stage show that goes, "neep."

Now here's what's going on in your neck of the woods: Hey, would'ja look at that... SUNNY all week with highs in the upper 40s, lower 50s.

And finally, in defense of Gary Grey (sitting to the right in Australia's parliament) I eat my own hair in boring meetings, too.
