[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember back in law school (decades ago) the professors would poo poo the critical legal studies scholarship as being too cynical. Turns out those guys weren't nearly cynical enough. Legal Calvinball is apt. While there are still good judges who try to be evenhanded and tether decision-making to actual facts and legal standards, unfortunately the Supremes are mostly radical extremists who don't care two figs about facts, norms, precedent, etc. It all started with Rehnquist - Nixon appointed the guy who was willing to break the law for him. [/quote] Remember Rehnquist put gold stripes on his robes? Embarrassing. [/quote]
