Watch this footage from "Hardball With Chris Matthews." These misguided Republicans are really drawing at straws to still claim that Obama may not have been born in the US of A... Wow.
This is an EMERGENCY ACTION ALERT to stop S.1261, The Pass Act which is worse than Real ID. We need to contact all the members of the Senate Committee for Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs to kill this before it gets to the Senate floor.
Tell them: 1. We are opposed to Real ID and the PASS Act 2. We are opposed to being enrolled in a Biometric Identification System 3. We don't want Social Security Numbers in our DMV databases 4. No RFID chips in our Driver's Licences 5. No federal intervention with the issuance of our State driver's licenses 6. We are not willing to trade our freedom for security.
All of these actions are unconstitutional and a direct attack on our civil liberties and our unalienable rights.
This ID is a GLOBAL BIOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM (see this video above for details) and is a direct attack on our national security.
This will take you 16 minutes (one minute for each committee member) see their contact info:

1. When i first heard that Tom Morello and Boots Riley were forming a new-fangled rap/band i was pretty psyched to hear what the outcome would be... Well, as expected, it's pretty good. Not hot, but good. However, i love love love the album cover. the name/title says it all...
2. My fellow designer Frank Zuber sent this over and i was immediately ecstatic! More about this cover Frank to come in an update...
-UPDATE- Here is what Mr. Zuber had to say about the Grace Jones "La Vie En Rose" 12inch cover:
Earlier this year Grace Jones released her long-awaited, triumphant comeback album "Hurricane." 2009 the singer/actress/model/freak/icon Grace Jones is still relevant. "La Vie en Rose" was the third single by the jamaican singer. Jones' fairly radical bossanova/disco interpretation of Edith Piaf's signature tune became her first international hit single and a staple of her repertoire and later performed as part of her 1981 A One Man Show, then the only track from her disco era to be included in the show. This 12" cover is about pure joy that could simply pop up whenever hearing your favorite tune. The clipped out look underlines the non-perfectionist approach to life and its happiness. To quote Grace from her career defining album Slave to the Rhythm "if you're wondering what's wrong with my voice, I just choked on my own siliva" (interview snippet in-between songs). Welcome back Grace...
