A group of more than 1,100 law school professors from across the country is sending a letter to Congress on Tuesday urging the Senate to reject the nomination of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) for attorney general.
The letter, signed by professors from 170 law schools in 48 states, is also scheduled to run as a full-page newspaper ad aimed at members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which will be holding confirmation hearings for Sessions on Jan. 10-11.
"We are convinced that Jeff Sessions will not fairly enforce our nation's laws and promote justice and equality in the United States," states the letter, signed by prominent legal scholars including Laurence H. Tribe of Harvard Law School, Geoffrey R. Stone of the University of Chicago Law School, Pamela S. Karlan of Stanford Law School and Erwin Chemerinsky of the University of California, Irvine School of Law.

Wow. 1000 law professors. I guess we should all do what 1000 law professors say.
Sounds like Tribe could rival Arthur Schlesinger as the Biggest Kennedy Brown Noser
I cannot think of a MORE PERFECT ENDORSEMENT FOR SENATOR SESSIONS than this nonsensical letter from these 1,100 professors!
BRING. IT. ON!
WaPo, quit it the MSM is Dead..
Sad. The 1,100 people who oppose Sessions are fake teachers and phony lawyers. There are four kinds of law, according to Aquinas (Summa Theol. 1-2. 92, and four kinds of justice, according to Aristotle Nich. Eth. 5. 3). Sessions is a role model for defenders of the law and mediators of justice.
Any conservatives among the “1,100 law school professors from across the country?”
Betcha no.
More than 1,100 COMMUNIST law school professors nationwide oppose Sessions’s nomination as attorney general
They missed a word.
Why Boobamba was not just a law professor, he was the editor of the Harvard Review. And he never contributed a legal review in the process.
Can’t wait till the real news gets out about Boombamba. When Trump’s in office we’ll finally learn some of the secrets behind the Manchurian Candidate.
Exactly what I was thinking.
And those who can't teach, become politicians.
What do you call 1100 Law School Professors at the bottom of the ocean?
A good start.
You can lead a politician to water but you can’t make him think.

That number was difficult to find. I gave to you a 2008 number that was determined just being a law school. What I generally found out was organizations like the American Bar Association only recognized accredited schools by their determination and that number was 248 in 2015.
But knowing how the left works, they probably went out and found a couple of school hacks from any school they could come up with that they could use to drive a point. But even that effort was half-hearted as they couldn’t find enough to make the point worth the national scene or even believe-able.
