UCI dean joins law scholars in sharp letter to Trump
OC Register ^ | 12/17/2017 | MARTIN WISCKOL

UC Irvine Law School Dean Erwin Chemerinsky has joined 41 other constitutional scholars in a letter to Donald Trump, expressing “great concern” about the president elect’s “commitment to our constitutional system.” --SNIP-- Among those dismissing the letter is Chapman University constitutional law Prof. John Eastman, a conservative who frequently faces off with Chemerinsky in point-counterpoint settings.

“After 8 years of these same constitutional law professors complaining not one iota about President Obama’s egregious violations of his constitutional authority, the expression of concern seems a bit contrived,” Eastman wrote via email, citing Obama’s executive actions addressing undocumented immigrants among other things.

Loony leftist law professors should be fired and then sued for fraud for teaching lies to their students. Then sue the law schools for hiring them and fire all the administrators who approved of their hiring.

“commitment to our constitutional system."

Where the heck have all these people been the last 8 years as Barry has run roughshod over our constitutional system?

It seems that liberal “constitutional” lawyers pick and choose which parts of the constitution that fits their narrative...

Yeah, I used to listen to HH years ago (what a mistake), and this Chemerinsky clown was celebrated by HH as one of the “smart guys”. Sheesh.

What makes these lawyers think they are better informed and more intelligent than the rest of us? I have over 16 years of college credits and look at these condescending butt wipes with disdain.

Ah yes. The “constitutional” scholar not concerned about what a constitutional lecturer has done for 8 years. the only thing these statist jerks study is how to violate the constitution and get away with it.

Apparently none of your 16 years were spent in law school. Rarely do you find anyone with a more overwhelming sense of self importance than with law school faculty.

May I remind everyone that when the controversy was raging over Chemerensky’s appointment to dean at UCI that Hugh Hewitt defended the selection and said he was eminently qualified and politics shouldn’t be an issue. I shook with laughter when I thought of all the times old Irwin had opposed those nominations on the right on that exact basis. I mean if you are going to allow the opponent to deploy a weapon you won’t use are you really putting up a fight?

"“After 8 years of these same constitutional law professors complaining not one iota about President Obama’s egregious violations of his constitutional authority, the expression of concern seems a bit contrived,” Eastman wrote via email, citing Obama’s executive actions addressing undocumented immigrants among other things."

I suspect that law professors not complaining about lawless Obama partly translates to not wanting to loose unconstitutional, unaccountable federal funding won in the name of federal educational funding.

Erwin Chemerinsky

Foolish affirmative action hire at UCI. His students are bored to death.
