You just can’t hire good help these days. The clerks who contributed to this should be dismissed. Too bad that the SCOTUS judges don’t seem to read what they sign.

That's my take as well. The "good" lawschools are, imho, designed to be little more than Lib indoctrination factories. They turn out two types of lawyer: Lib lawyers who have drunk the koolaid and have only learned how the law can be "interpreted" into pretzels (and beyond) to suit their needs and Conservative lawyers who have learned to survive in a hostile environment and successfully resisted the indoctrination. Which Justices the best/brightest of those two groups (defined as best/brightest for Conservatives, greatest capacity for legal manipulation for the Libs) go clerk for is nothing more than a foregone conclusion.
