If you're a casual follower of the news, you missed a doozy yesterday. On a normal day, every one of these stories would have received full-time 24-hour cable-news coverage.
1) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanjahu spoke to the U.S. Congress and ripped the American president (to thunderous applause from Republicans).
2) Former CIA Director David Petreaus admitted to passing classified documents to his mistress, and faces a potential prison sentence.
3) Former Secretary of State (and probable presidential candidate) Hillary Clinton was revealed to have conducted all of her official business as Secretary via a private e-mail account, sparking concern about security breaches and transparency.
4) The Department of Justice released a report alleging that the Ferguson Missouri police department was casually racist--although not criminally liable for it.
5) The House of Representatives passed the DHS funding bill without any anti-immigration riders--after pretending last week that this was something that could NEVER happen.
6) And today, the Supreme Court hears arguments to end a provision of Obamacare based on a technical use of vague language--that would immediately kick five million people off their insurance plans.
I got a kick out of watching the cable news shows trying to figure out what story should lead their programs. There was no consensus--all of those stories were picked by at least one show.
