ProfessorBainbridge.com: Federal Liberals

ProfessorBainbridge.com: Federal Liberals

Your blogger says: Not sure you'll want to delve into this. If you do, here are some of my thoughts:

1) Bainbridge rhetoric: conservative good, liberal bad. Even though I side with this in regard to judicial practice, Bainbridge seems not to be concerned that Fox News and Republicans are running roughshod over any truth and accountability in today's world.

2) Kevin Drum: Although Bainbridge seems to like Drum better than other so-called liberals, and Drum's blog entry (to which Bainbridge refers) has an interesting discussion with the upshot being that the TV ad about Roberts is too slimly (and unnecessarily so). The particular alternative that Drum is advocating (discrediting the ivory tower ideology) is not the easy target that Drum seems to imply. Bainbridge is there to lead the defense, and the case has powerful arguments on both sides. The Bainbridge side gets the nod as being more directly based on the documents and surrounding facts of our Country's Founders.
