GRRM has come out to say that Renly and Loras are totes lovers :D It's more than implied, especially with Loras's angsting in the latter books. (LORAAAAS ;A;)
I, uh, pretty much agree with everything you've written, except I go all sparkly-eyed at the mention of Tyrion Lannister, because he's in my top three for MOST AWESOMEST CHARACTERS TO EVER AWESOME IN AN AWESOME STORY.
I am hoping that something horrible befalls the Freys, especially Walder. I specifically hope they all get eaten by dragons or roasted alive (by dragons) in the Twins a la Harrenhall. Any other fate will not satisfy me (unless GRRM comes up with something much better).
And I am totally Team Daenerys. Westeros is going to destroy itself with civil war and she's going to come in, sweep up all the pieces, and be an awesome queen.
Also, Jon Stark's parentage: I'm on board with Jon being Rhaegar and Lyanna's bastard, because the more second- and third-hand knowledge the readers find out about Rhaegar and Lyanna, the more it becomes apparent that they ran off together. Eddard is made to promise Lyanna something, but what he promises her was never revealed; it's very easy to make the leap that Lyanna told him to raise her son as his own. What else could it be?
Sadly, the only living characters that would know the truth are Wylla (Jon's wet nurse and the person many presume to be his mother, after Ashara Dayne) and Howland Reed (who has yet to make an appearance).
