Why, is he an appellate lawyer, too?

Not if I'm the one with no limbs left. And who's throwing mud anyway?

For all his experience, I'm disappointed in the crappy logic he showed in that excerpt.

I've got a case against a deputy U.S. Attorney with the DOJ. He's dumb as a post. He just got the snot beat out of him by the judge on a motion for being so stupid. The U.S. attorneys (and state attorneys general) I've come across are more arrogance than substance.

Have you ever thought about running for State Attorney General, or one of those type positions you mention as being style rather than substance?

Maybe you could add some real substance to the position, make a difference?

Interesting to see that he clerked for Judge J. Clifford Wallace of the Ninth Circuit, the court's former chief jugde, and a Mormon.

It's not the elected guys - it's the deputy A.G.'s and U.S. Attorneys.

I'm sure there are some really good ones, but I've seen a lot who were (and still are) clowns.

Want to re-think that last point?

The Supreme Court has invited the parties to re-argue whether Kennedy was wrongly decided. Apparently somewhere inside those black robes a few of the majority figured out their "national consensus" justification appeared vapid. This could potentially lead to a rehearing of the case, and in a long shot, an overturning of the ruling.
