Jeez, can’t believe it’s the middle of June already. Yikes. Well, here’s the list of stories from yesterday’s Riff, Kevin Drum, and MoJo blogs that touch on Blue Marble subjects:

Ovation deflation: Obama gets booed by doctors.

What Not to Bear: Some say the gay pride flag needs a makeover. Calling Stacy and Clinton…

Protest bonus round: A few sad people still offended by Letterman’s joke, reject nth apology.
