Michael Medved talks with Barronelle Stutzman of Arlene's Flower's and Jim Campbell, of ADF who worked on behalf of Stutzman on the Arlene's Flowers lawsuit, which is a group of civil suits that was brought against Arlene's Flowers of Richland, Washington by a gay couple who requested Stutzman to design and create flowers for their same-sex ceremony. Stutzman politely declined, due to her religious convictions. Stutzman was then taken to court, and her case was petitioned by ADF to the U.S Supreme Court, which in June was sent back to the Washington Supreme Court, in light of the recent SCOTUS decision in Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission.

When Charles Krauthammer died last week, tributes poured in from colleagues and fans of very ideological persuasion. It’s hard to think of another contemporary commentator or journalist who inspired such widespread, bi-partisan, affectionate regard.

What earned him this special place in the worlds of media and politics?

Second, the public marveled at his heroic personal story: a quadriplegic from age 21, he never allowed his physical limitations to interfere with his positive, passionate life. In today’s world, even when you agree with a politician it’s commonly hard to respect him.

But with Krauthammer, even when you disagreed with him, you had to admire him.
