Eight Mile Laundry
In certain 'hoods, there's a tradition of battling with put-down rhymes in the manner of Eminem's movie, "Eight Mile." In the above, my favorite new commercial, a new white rap god arises.

Tom--I'm curious as to how you feel about the website Daily Kos putting up a list of mormon donors for prop 8 encouraging people to look into their personal lives. I even found a website that encouraged people to go to all those mormons houses and shoot them. Don't you think that is a little bit inapropriate? I know that what those people oppose is your lifestyle, but as Americans they have that right. How do you feel about what is being encouraged?
Certainly I am against ANY kind of illegal or dishonest activity on either side of the campaign. As far as looking into donors' private lives, I'm not sure it would do much good, nor do I think it's terribly "high road." That said, if big donor is going on about "the sanctity of marriage," but it turns out he's had three divorces or a series of affairs, I don't think there is a problem exposing hypocrisy. But that goes for both sides.
