For some reason, I think I have something to say to you. You think you have something to say to me? Email me at: gideonsblogger -at- yahoo -dot- com

 
Gideon's Blog, September 29:

I'm kind of warming towards the view that Bush should appoint someone with political as well as legal experience, simply because that kind of real-world experience could be a valuable corrective to a Court that (to pick an example of a Scalia-authored mess) voted to through out sentencing guidelines nationwide on a relatively novel (and not obviously cleaner) interpretation of the law.

Isn't there some Chinese or Jewish curse to the effect of: may you get what you ask for?
