Friday Follow: Super Tuesday, al-Awlaki Defense, Rush Limbaugh and the Contraceptive Debate

The Takeaway

This week saw the not-so-super Super Tuesday primary, a break in silence from the White House on the targeted killing of an American national overseas, and Rush Limbaugh with his foot in his mouth in the national debate over contraceptive use. Those and more are the stories we followed with our panel of political and cultural experts.
Joining us this week are Dan Damon, host of BBC World, Takeaway contributor and Republican political strategist Ron Christie, and Mary Elizabeth Williams, staff writer for Salon.com.
