Don't Worry About Tomorrow

++A reader saw I lived Stevie Ray Vaughn and suggested I listen to some Albert King. The NSA seemed to be listening because today Ed Kilgore at Washington Monthly posted three Albert King renditions of the blues. Listen!

++Tomorrow I dread because we are supposed to read the tea leaves coming out of the SCOTUS questions on same-sex marriage. I may take a bye. This town is anxiety-producing enough.

++So the Religious Right dropped off petitions that Ruth Bader Ginsberg and Elaine Kagan recuse themselves because they are biased in favor of same sex marriage. Remember this stunt with Obamacare. Try to fix the count so you can have the decision you want.

++The Amicus curiae brief by the "marriage experts" that said that same sex marriage causes abortions may seem nuts except it is aimed at one vote--Justice Kennedy. They know his position on abortion and also know that he previously concurred with a decision that the courts can not define traditional marriage. So knowing of his intense hatred of abortion rights,they want to persuade him to join the Dark Side.

++It seems so long ago that the Iowa Supreme Court ruled in favor of same sex marriage because the state had no interest in the matter. This ignited the Religious Right's fury and efforts to impeach the judges.

++So here in 2015--yes the 21st Century--the Freedom and Faith Summit brought forth the bile of the GOP Presidential candidates. 

++Ted Cruz said that a Liberal fascism was going on against Christians.

++Mike Huckabee said that it wouldn't be long before Christianity would be criminalized.

++Marco Rubio said it would be an absurd bending of the Constitution that would allow Gay marriage.

++Bobby Jindal distributed his New York Times op-ed and said he supports his Religious Freedom bill but would go to a gay wedding.

++Steven King said that SCOTUS can't change the definition of marriage just because they are the Supreme Court. I guess not.

++Rick Perry said he was proud to have helped George W. Bush pass the Religious Freedom Bill in Texas during the 1990s.

++Jeb Bush couldn't make it but his evangelical outreach person assured the crowd that Jeb supporting defunding Planned Parenthood.

++The Supreme Court reversed a ruling by a lower court that upheld Obamacare's contraceptive coverage because the Catholic Church objects to it and invoked Hobby Lobby against it.
