Ros-Lehtinen's haircut makes the cut

Seriously. The Hill, a D.C. newspaper that covers Congress takes note of the Miami Republican's new do -- one she doesn't like.

Here's what The Hill reports under a gossip column item titled: "Rep. Ros-Lehtinen gets a new hairdo: The Suze Orman

"Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.) debuted a new hairstyle last week and also appeared to have added blond highlights. The short cut takes her hair off her neck and above her ears but leaves a fullness at the top. It could rightly be called the Suze Orman look, named after the self-help-style financial adviser with short, layered white-blond hair.

"Ros-Lehtinen was not thrilled about the cut: 'It was a most unfortunate decision,' she said. 'I was about to go on the Larry King show and went to a hair salon to get my hair washed and blown out. The stylist said, 'Let me take just a bit off the top.' I said, 'Sure,’ and immersed myself in my BlackBerry news of the day in order to prepare for the show. And in a matter of minutes, most of my hair was gone. My family is aghast, as am I. But I vote in a more prepared manner than I make hair choices. It shall grow. No worries."

OUR GOOD REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR CHARLIE CHRIST, HAS PASSED THIS INTO LAW TODAY. AND I QUOTE:

> If your Drivers License Address does not match the Address on your Voters Registration Card, You will NOT be Permitted to Vote. How LOW are the Republicans going to go in an attempt to keep power in their favor. Forward this to everyone in Florida, to check today, both addresses on their Drivers License and Voters Registration to make sure they match. The kids away in college is who this is targeted towards. Folks, this is VITAL!! The Republicans are using every trick in the book they can to prevent November 4, 2008 Change from taking place. It is, what it is now that it's Law, we have to comply. So FLOOD the State of Florida Drivers License agencies to correct your drivers license address today. Here's the link to change your address on line

Suze Orman?

The haircut isn't the only thing they have in common.

Gah! Charlie! You're killing us!

This information is absolutely FALSE!!!

Your address on your voter ID card does not need to match the information on your driver's license when you go to vote. In fact, you don't even need a Florida driver's license!

You are not required to change your address to vote. For instance, students are allowed to vote at their college address by using their passport or their student id+signed credit card.

The law refers to your voter registration. If you are unsure if your new registration went through, check the Miami Dade county elections website

That supposed law is FALSE.

I voted in August (new laws take effect in July, by the way) and my FLDL lists my office address while my voter's reg has my home address. In fact, I didn't even have my voter's reg with me and only showed my license. I voted with no problem. Stop spreading lies and creating needless panic that only makes an alreay stressful process worse.
