he has every right to be happy about it. similarly on the gay marriage ruling that was one he certainly supported and urged but obama administration was not a party to that case. it filed an amicus brief which means friend of the court. so in a way that is a victory for a cause that he supported. you look around the rest of the political landscape and it is not clear to me that he should have a great deal of encouragement about how well he is able to put the agenda into effect. does that mean the gay rights decision last week was a long time coming as a result of the work of gay rights activists who strategized this in a brilliant way. they made sure it did not go to the high court before they were ready to rule in their favor. it was their movement. i got to go. one more thing. barack obama was on the other side of this issue seven or eight years ago.
