For the second day in a row, the High Court of Hangin’ Judge JR does the right thing, though with a closer vote on marriage equality than health care reform...and for the second day in a row, Antonin Scalia ended up doing his best impression of Andrew Dice Clay – I believe that, somewhere, Harvey Milk is smiling…
...and returning to the issue of the confederate flag, Rachel Maddow interviews John Hawkins, former president of the black student body at Ole Miss; he refused to wave it as a cheerleader for the school - want to know how change happens? By a whole lot of people doing exactly what Hawkins did...
…and RIP actor Patrick Macnee, who played secret agent (remember them?) John Steed in The Avengers, a guy who was debonair of course, but also tough without a gun…
…and returning to the top story, I just felt like playing this tune (I’m sure the Catholic Church is going to be heaping lots of fire and brimstone over this on Sunday – by the way, I read that Macnee’s mother was lesbian…not that that should matter of course, but I only wish to point out that same-sex partners can be great parents too, which I suppose should be obvious).
