I have beem mildly outraged by the recent conservative backlash against president Obama’s plan to appoint an empathetic justice to the bench. Dahlia Lithwick over at Slate is a favorite read of mine for her ability to conciely summarize happenings around the Supreme Court. She has a response which echoes mine except that it is more concise, better written and also angrier (she is usually quite reserved and measured.)
