Thanks for the links! I read them all.

Clarence Thomas is a jewel. Laymen can read his opinions.

I can get myself choked up thinking how different our country would be if we actually had Constitutional jurists manning our courts these past 70 years.

Whatever you do, do not read Amity Shales’ “The Forgotten Man.” I give credit to FDR for leading us through WWII but will never forgive him, Harold Ickes and the courts for what they did to our law.
