Mississippi Supreme Court Flags Itself
Can’t make this stuff up:
The approximately 10 x 15-foot flag was up for a couple of hours before anyone noticed. Because, you know, Mississippi.

That’s the government for you! However, isn’t the present flag somewhat similar to the battle flag as it retains a smaller rendering of the Stars and Bars?
It is. But still, quite a bit of difference not to notice.
Seems like a hard mistake to make unless you’re pretty deeply unaware of what you’re doing.
And still, TWO HOURS for someone to notice?
Does this mean that Mississippi says no to Obamacare?
The timing is coincidental, but Mississippi was also in the news Friday for effectively shutting down any possibility of setting up state-managed health insurance exchanges. Under the law, this will result in the feds stepping in to do so, resulting in less local control over health care in Mississippi, not more. (Way to show your independence, morons!) Given Mississippi’s ranking in basic health outcome measures like infant mortality (No. 1), life expectancy (No. 51, including the District of Columbia), and cancer death rate (No. 3), it’s hard to imagine the feds doing a worse job for the people of that state.
Of course, Mississippi collects $2.47 in federal spending for every dollar in tax revenue it generates, so being on the federal dole is pretty much what Mississippi is all about, when it comes to that state’s relationship with DC.
