Today's horoscope says:
Calm, cool and calculated -- that's you, right? Well, that may be what you're used to being referred to as, but those may not be the adjectives used to describe you today. In fact, you may end up being called fiery, spontaneous and startling. Why hold back? Just go for it and let everyone see what you're all about.

Open letter to the Democrats
Dear Democratic Leadership
You won overwhelming majorities because Americans, yes, Real Americans, were fed up with what the repugican junta was doing.When it comes to health care, civil liberties, equal rights, workers' rights, disabled Americans' rights, consumers' rights, if the repugicans aren't screaming and moaning about what you are doing then you are doing it wrong.
Sincerely the American People
