Cheat Sheet - Gay Marriage Chaos Begins

Read This, Skip That ....

November 11, 2014
STOP!
Justice Sotomayor stopped gay marriages in Kansas before they could even start, thanks to a split among circuit courts. Now, the pressure is on for the Supreme Court to settle this once and for all. Will the nation's highest court weigh in, or will allowing the state to resolve the issue on its own slow down the rapid escalation of equal rights? Jay Michaelson reports.
JERK MOVE

Russia announced that it will build as many as eight nuclear reactors in Iran for "peaceful use of atomic energy," according to Russian state news agency RIA Novosti. As part of the deal, the spent nuclear fuel will be "returned to Russia for reprocessing and storage." The news comes just two weeks before Iran's nuclear negotiations with the West are set to expire. Over the weekend, Iran's Ayatollah Khamenei called for Israel to be annihilated, which makes the prospect of using nuclear reactors to build bombs more worrisome. "We will not let Iran acquire a nuclear weapon, period," said Vice President Joe Biden on Monday.

OBLIVIOUS

Ben Stein is apparently determined to make all African Americans hate him. The former member of the Nixon administration and Comedy Central game-show host said America's race problem isn't about racism. Rather, "the real problem with race in America is a very, very beaten-down, pathetic, self-defeating black underclass that is—uh, just can't seem to get its way going in the way that blacks were able to before the scourge of drugs and the scourge of gangs," he said on NewsMaxTV. Stein also blamed Obama for black struggles in America. "Blacks were on their way in this country, even after the horrors of slavery, and then drugs came in, the destruction of families came in, " he said. "And that, it seems to me, is something that Mr. Obama could have addressed, and he just ignored it completely."

MIAMI VICE
A British millionaire has spent the past 27 years in Florida prisons for a double homicide that he claims he never committed. The mastermind: Pablo Escobar, who allegedly set him up. While Miami's notorious justice system has persistently ignored Kris Majaraj's pleas, Jacqui Goddard recounts the story as the 75-year-old man has one last chance to prove his innocence.
BASHARMANIA
Home to 15,000 Syrian Christians who love their former homeland's dictator, Allentown, Pennsylvania is also Assadville, USA. Even though Bashar al-Assad is responsible for some 100,000 casualties, the Syrian Americans here stand by the man hated by much of Syria, reports Christopher Moraff.
