Scarborough: MSM Talks 'Litmus Test' Only Regarding Pro-Life Republica
During Morning Joe's opening segment today, Joe Scarborough, in an apparent allusion to the ambitions Chris Matthews has expressed, facetiously wondered whether the panel should start calling the Hardball host "Senator."

WaPo Pens 2nd Editorial This Week in Defense of D.C. Gun Ban
Although it already weighed in on Monday about District of Columbia v. Heller, the Post is clearly worried that the Court will find, shockingly enough, an individual right to keep and bear arms in the text of the Second Amendment.
