I "accuse you" of misreading the decision (to put it in the same terms as the MSM trying to make it look like a major split between conservatives).

It only says the court can't deny you your choice. It does not say that you get whoever you want even if the lawyer can't or won't do it.

I think I side with Scalia. And frankly I'm surprised. Scalia usually bends over backwards and tortures logic to put drug dealers and users away even when they have a case.

yeah, I think this one is hard to pinpoint just what is right or wrong. IN one way I agree with Alito and in another I agree with Scalia. Honestly, I'm just afraid that means any criminal defendent will start using this as an excuse to get a mistrial and claim unfairness cause they didn't like the attorney representing him.
