    Why does this make me feel so happy?

    Seriously. This was linked on fark, I watched it, it made me happy. if you don't know the drama between Virgil Goode and Keith Ellison, well, I won't recount it here, you can just mosey on over to cnn and learn all about it. Short version: Goode doesn't seem to care for Muslims, Ellison is a Muslim recently elected to the house who wanted to take his oath on the Koran (he ended up taking his oath on Thomas Jefferson's translated Koran). So Ellison goes over and introduces himself to Goode. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside for reals.

    video here.

    More info on Unknown Hinson coming later, including the best picture ever taken.

    I'll take a little of the credit for Ellison being in Congress, as I am fortunate to live and vote in the district he was elected to represent. He's doin' us proud so far. Go DFL!
