Hello and welcome to the Slate Political Gab Fest, the reply all edition for Friday, November 18th, 2011.

I am David Fotz, the editor of Slate. I'm here in Washington, D.C., with John Dickerson.

Jackerson. John Dackerson. My dear colleague, John Dukerson, and his cousin, John Dickerson also.

And joining us from New Haven, as ever. You're not in New Haven. I'm in New York.

From New York.

In New York is Emily Bazelon, Slate Senior Editor.

John, congratulations.

You have a new title for your second job.

John is now the CBS News Political Director as well as Slate Senior Political Correspondent.

Congratulations.

There are two titles I can now forget.

Thank you. Yes, exactly. And that everybody else can forget. We are going to have three topics today.

Topic number one is going to be the doings in Zuccotti Park and in the Occupy movement in general.

Topic two will be the Supreme Court's decision to take the Affordable

Care Act case before the 2012 election, what that signifies, what's likely to happen, the legal

and political implications thereof, wherefore, unto which. And herein. And here to four also.

And the third topic will be John Dickerson himself.

We're going to talk about a very delightful and interesting little episode that John was involved in on his first day as CBS News political director.
