Here’s Joe Biden swearing in Al Franken to the Senate today, finally, while failed adult Norm Coleman plays Foosball in his parents’ basement, alone, sobbing. Now the Democrats officially have 60 votes in the Senate! EVERYONE GO GAY-MOLEST A CHILD, NOW. [TPM]

• YOUR MONTHLY UPDATE ON THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE: Recently a few half-powerful (or anonymous) Democrats have been overheard expressing their support for Reinstating The Fairness Doctrine. Well, those people are retarded if so. Nevertheless, it’s fueled the Right’s fear campaign that Obama will reinstate this thing and Sean Hannity’s listeners will be forced to turn over their property and the Internet to any Mexican with a driver’s license. A White House spokesman, however, released another brief statement reiterating that Obama does not want to do this. This will only make Republicans more skeptical. [Fox News]

POLITICO MUST BE BOMBED TO HELL, RIGHT NOW: “Obama has been photographed several times without his shirt as a presidential candidate but he’s about to step into the White House — so how much skin is too much? There is a fine line, experts said, and this time at least, Obama was on the right side of it.” And in the next paragraph, there’s a quote from an expert! He says it’s normal for the humans to take their shirts off at the beach! And the expert’s name is “Howard Bragman,” which is clearly made up. Ugh. We’re not even going to link to this article.
