The "good" Injustice would say Westlaw or Lexis if that's what he meant. I get the uneasy sense that he's just Googling up stuff.

In addition to Westlaw and Lexis, there is an enormous amount of legal research that can be done through the internet.

Virtually every state and federal court procedural and evidentiary rule is available, as are federal and state regulations from securities to land use; almost every state and federal court opinion is available without accessing West or Lex; briefs and pleadings in state and federal appellate courts can be accessed; every arbitration body posts its rules and decisions on the internet (AAA, NASD, NYSE, etc); law reviews from practically every law school in the nation are accessible, as are state and national bar journals; legislative debates, commentaries, and proposals are accessible; etc. etc.

Rep. Delay's shock at a Justice doing his own research on the internet is just bizarre. Is he also shocked that most of the Justices on the Supreme Court also do their own drafting?
