Sixties envy

I believe a lot of the liberal social causes have their basis in 60’s envy.  Great and overdue rectifications occurred then.  If something is rectified now, eg, gay marriage, free tuition, etc . . .. then that will be a great rectification just like civil rights.  Disputable.

Spare me

I lost link, but CNN had opinion piece (I repeat myself) on the day after the election that ended with the conclusion that Trump’s election could be the end of peaceable politics.  Really?  After the treatments of Sarah Palin?  Joe the Plumber?  Bakers refusing to make cakes for gay weddings?  *scoff*

Justice Ginsberg caves

and distances herself from earlier remarks re NFL.  http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/sports/Justice-Ginsburg-Walks-Back-NFL-National-Anthem-Kaepernick-Protest-Comments-397126481.html

 

If she lacks fortitude in this trivial instance, how will she be strong in more serious cases?  Sad.
