It’s Friday, the time we spend time with our most valuable minds here on The Takeaway to look at the week’s stories. Is the Conservative Political Action Conference a right-wing Star Trek convention? How will the gay marriage issue play out? And why has contraception become a political issue? Our panel tackles these stories and more. Ron Christie is a Takeaway contributor and Republican political strategist. Jeff Yang writes the Tao Jones column for The Wall Street Journal and blogs for our co-producer WNYC’s It’s a Free Country. Farai Chideya is a journalist and blogger at Farai.com.
