Quickies

• Axl Rose refuses his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  I'd have to say of all the bands that came out of the late 80s and early 90s, Guns N' Roses might be my favorite.  I was never in to the whole heavy metal-Metallica scene.  I'd take Guns N' Roses any day over them. Appetite for Destruction and Use Your Illusion I and II are three of the best rock albums ever created in my opinion.  And it's not like I'm a huge Roses fan because I'm really not.  What I do know is that there isn't a person between the ages of 20-45 who doesn't know every word to Sweet Child O' Mine, Welcome to the Jungle, Patience, or November Rain.  Their contribution to Rock is legendary.  I wish Axl could enjoy his time in the sun just for one day.  

• Fox News finds its Mole and fires him.  This surely won't be the last time we hear about this story.  My guess is look for Fux News to start a personal destruction tour of the guy to discredit him as much as possible before he's able to get his reports into the media storm.  

• Given all the successes Obama has had in fight against Islamic terrorists in Afghanistan, a majority of Republicans now believe the war isn't worth it anymore. Where were they 8 years ago?  Oh yeah, Bush was our Great Leader then and he was busy waging war in a country that had nothing to do with 9/11.  Repubs couldn't get enough of that.

• Josh Tucker says Romney will have no trouble getting the support of Santorum voters.  Tucker is right.  I've said for months now that Republicans will show up to vote for Romney.  No questions about it.  They will come home and vote.  That he really isn't a Christian, that he is the founding father of the individual mandate, that he believes the Garden of Eden is in Jackson County, Missouri, that he loves all the Amendments in the Constitution, that prior to running president was very moderate on social issues will bother Republican voters not one bit.  They will vote for him, end of story.  

• Nutjob Paul Ryan refuses to say what he thinks constitutes "wealthy."  Says we should just call them job creators and leave it at that.  So where are the jobs?  And why doesn't he ask them to start creating?
