Important vote going on, and we're interested in ...

OK. As I write this, the idjits in Congress are wrangling over the Health Care Reform vote. As I write this.

I'm monitoring the progress of the vote through a Twitter feed; think #hcr here.

It's only the most pivotal Congressional action since ... since ... well, in an awful long time. A government takeover of a gigantic chunk of our economy? An action that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said would "kick open the door" -- and she's for it?

It's important stuff.

But what are the top trending topics in Twitter right now?

Here's the list, at 6:28 p.m. EDT:
  • 10monthsjbargentina Argentinawithjonas
  • Grevis Vasquez
  • Alcee Hastings
  • Michigan State-Maryland
  • Wisconsin 87-69
  • Missouri 68-59
  • Phil Gingrey
  • Gene Simmons Family Jewels
  • #KorieLucious
  • Laurence Olivier Awards
I think we've had it. We're screwed, blued, and tattooed. And folks don't give a rip.
