St. Patrick's Day, the patron day for Irish was yesterday. The lesser known St. Joseph's Day, the patron day not only of I, but Italians generally, is tomorrow. Today is JP Day -- the patron day of Irish/Italian mutts. Mutts, as my young niece (who has still another flavor) underlines, are the best sorts. BTW, as they dealt with guns, Scalia had an interesting dissent today to
a case involving a law requiring party labels on ballots. Strong freedom of association language, most often expressed by his co-dissenter, Justice Kennedy. Pretty low key too.
