Looks like them rich-guy tax cuts are going to get rubber-stamped, though, so I don't know how they're going to pay for all the gold lamé and tulle.

In summary, Congress loves rich people, has come to terms with gay people but still hates the hell out of Mexicans.

Progress comes slowly, I guess.

Well, allowing gay people to serve in the military is still a far cry from full equality, and antagonism toward immigrants from south of the border only seems to be increasing. Remember Bush's stance on immigration? That may get someone crushed in the Republican primary today. So, yeah, progress.

I wouldn't necessarily take the fact that they're happy for gays to be shot at as a sign they're ok with them.

At least now they can let everyone else know they're gay before they get shot.

Oh, wait . . . hmmmmmmmm . . .
