The MF Global bonds that were very cheap, now may pay 100%.

Scalia, Americans—including many progressives—are missing the big picture. John Roberts is the most political chief justice in recent decades. His strategic release of this week’s decisions—one setting the stage for overturning affirmative action in higher education, two eviscerating workplace harassment standards, and then gutting the most important voting rights law of the past half-century—were all deliberately buried by the timing of the two marriage decisions. These rulings take months to prepare and their release is not random.

Americans shouldn’t buy into Roberts’ divide and conquer strategy by saying, ‘we won’ on GLBT issues but lost on racial justice. This politicized right-wing majority Court must be seen as the political animal that it is—and could become a target and rallying cry in 2014 elections.
