Americone Dream in Florida

While we are all waiting for June, the month for weddings and Supreme Court rulings to be handed down, we got a glimpse into what Sue Everhart, Georgia GOP Chairwoman, is thinking on the matter of marriage equality. Stehpen had one of her quotes from April 1 of this year. "Lord, I'm going to get in trouble over this, but it is not natural for two women or two men to be married... If it was natural, they would have the equipment to have a sexual relationship." Actually, she thinks this whole current situation is all about heterosexuals getting free health care and therefore committing fraud.

We found out that Austin, Texas is on North Korea's list, probably because of the SXSW Music Festival. The reason is that SXSW has become too commercial. Stephen had Victor Cha, author of "The Impossible State: North Korea, Past and Future," on to discuss briefly what's going on over in North Korea. It was interesting and somewhat confusing. Hopefully he won't come back on to update Stephen.

Amazingly enough, while doing a segment on Florida laws, Stephen cleverly put in a visual plug for Ben & Jerry's Americone Dream Ice Cream. Some might think he was pointing out the futility of trying to come up with a law that neglects to consider the shoes we all wear each and every day, but I'm pretty sure it was all just a ploy to get us all to go buy some more of his namesake ice cream treat. I know it sure made me hungry for some munchies.

Stephen's guest was the Governor of New Jersey. No not that Governor, this former Governor. Jim McGreevey was a Governor of New Jersey a few years before Chris Christie. Stephen called him Gov Jim. The former Governor currently is working with female women in jail, counseling them and helping them put there lives back on track. He said that about 70% of them are there because of drugs.. They work on a spiritual level, which includes Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Hinduism. Jim McGreevey said that in many ways the women are as good as what Jesus meant for us to be. And what Stephen heard him say was that Jesus was a criminal, Jesus was an addict. I guess that good ear of Stephen's is not quite healed yet.
