Just backfrom a week at Myrtle Beach... did I miss anything this week?

WOW Thursday afternoon I was going back out to the beach and I asked my wife to see if she could find out what the Supreme Court ruled on OBAMACARE (embrace the name).
The crowd we were with were not "at the beach" kind of people so getting the TV away from them was tough. I caught an empty TV room that afternoon and turned to MSNBC...

I ran down to the beach to tell my wife. We literally did a dance on the beach.


..... there was no discussion of it by the crowd we were with. None at dinner, none at the (UNGODLY) NASCAR Speedpark that night, not until Saturday did any of them (Fox News believers) mention it. And I LAID THEM OUT. Boehner warned his people not to "spike the football" well I did the Billy "White Shoes" Johnson dance and THEN spiked the football RIGHT IN THEIR FACE.

Over 100 years in the making.
No going back now. AND WE AIN'T STOPPING NOW
YOU are the only people who don't know what is in the bill because YOU watch Fox News.
Scalia has made a joke of himself.
YOUR Supreme Court overreaches all over the place (Citizens United and SEIU) and YOUR appointment as Chief Justice just overreached right down your throats.

The people I was talking to were professors of history and political science. They had no response as their jaws almost hit the sand.

And I didn't even know about the Arizona immigration law ruling and the Fast-and-Furious blow up in their faces.


Great week at Myrtle Beach - even though that place is like a petri dish or redneck entitlement.
