This just in…

Justice John Roberts just updated his relationship status with the Republican party to “It’s complicated.”

Days like today really make me miss Molly Ivins.

On an actual  rare  serious note  – Maybe this mattered, maybe it didn’t. But Chief Justice John Roberts has had at least two “grand mal” seizures. If he were a private citizen without employer-paid benefits, without Obamacare Roberts would have a very hard if not impossible time obtaining health insurance.

 

Patrick Gaspard, the Democratic National Committee executive director, stirred up things this morning with his tweet “It’s constitutional. Bitches.” Well, at least he didn’t say “Vagina.”

 

 

Well on some level we’re even. Europeans can’t understand why Americans make such a big deal about healthcare, and Americans can’t understand why Europeans make such a big deal about the Euro Cup.

Wonder if some of the people screaming about the healthcare decision also think we should revoke mandatory car insurance.

From Mitt Romney’s website: “As president, Mitt will nominate judges in the mold of Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Scalia, Thomas and Alito.”

Hillary Clinton just visited her 100th country as Secretary of State; she has spent 337 days on the road since she took the job. No wonder Bill Clinton has been supportive of President Obama lately.

Blackberry maker RIM has announced they will layoff 5,000 employees and delay their newest operating system. Wonder how many people read the news on their iPhones.

 

David Beckham, 37, has apparently been left off the British soccer team for the London Olympics. Maybe they got tired of him yelling at his teammates “You punks get off my field.”

The ex-mistress of  Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson was arrested for trying to extort money by threatening to reveal naked pictures he had sent her. Besides being a coach, Jackson is also a pastor and founded a church (True Love Worship Center International). Well, at least his lover was an adult woman.

Guess there’s no problem with immigration if you can hit a curve ball….Cuban outfielder Yasiel Puig, who defected last month to Mexico, has apparently reached agreement on a seven-year, $42 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

    From Chief Justice John Roberts’ mailbox: “Dear John, Why don’t you come hunting with me at Dick Cheney’s ranch? It’ll be a blast. (signed) Nino”

    Uh, care insurance is NOT mandatory. You only have to buy it if you own a car. You have a choice. Lots of people don’t have cars so they don’t have to buy car insurance. DOH! By the way, the so-called mandatory car insurance is up to each state, not mandated by the Supreme Court.


    • Would love to see what happens if a state decides its residents don’t have to buy car insurance. And yes, in theory you don’t need to have a car – you do need insurance if you rent though too And in most of the U.S. almost impossible to live-work without one. Re medicine wonder how many people never go to a hospital-doctor cradle to grave. Starting out by being born at home.
