Clearly, he didn't say anything embarrassing or controversial or stupid that would have harmed his chances. And I think the losers in the week have to be these Senate Judiciary Committee members who had this precious time and instead used their time to make political speeches that, really, very few people listened to.

He's going to be like a tour guide, leading federal prosecutors by the hand through the sordid details of these deals. The best the members of Congress can hope for is more political embarrassment. The worst is serious prison time.

Even the roof is burned off the office and Wally still made it.

So this is a case where Padilla loses the round in court but actually gains some measure of freedom. Padilla wins by losing. He gets out of military custody now and presumably into an environment in some jail somewhere where he will have more complete access to his lawyers and a better chance not just to see the allegations against him but to prepare his own defense.

Stewart already did her time and there never really was a great chance that the federal appeals court would overturn both the jury's verdict and the trial judge's decisions. So this sews up this case on another losing note for Stewart.

This ruling will encourage other people in other states who may have been contemplating similar assisted-suicide laws to go ahead and get them on the books ? and as long as those other laws are similar to the Oregon law they ought to pass the constitutional test. And I wouldn't be surprised if these efforts begin immediately.

This scenario ? sending the case back down for more consideration ? was discussed at length during the oral argument on the case so I'm not sure that the parties here are terribly surprised that the Court would punt on the merits and perhaps avoid the issue altogether. The Court frequently does this, in cases large and small.

I think it's unfortunate that we don't spend time talking about our role in the world.

The key battles in these cases are likely to come early when the government challenges the claims and then argues that the data that might prove what the plaintiffs have alleged cannot be disclosed due to national security concerns. So right off the bat we'll see a legal defense, not a factual one.

Canadians want liberalism without Liberals, or preferably Conservatives without conservatism.

The police can't do anything to compel this family to talk, they can't do anything legally. The family, anyone, has a Fifth Amendment right not to talk to police and I imagine these folks are going to exercise that right and they have every right to do so.

This really says something about the role of science education in this country and begs us to question how we are teaching evolutionary theory.

Whatever else this means, it means an even more complicated prosecution of Lewis Libby because it either requires the government to disclose sensitive information to the defense team.

It's still an open question about whether it hurts Dick Cheney legally. Only the special prosecutor, Patrick Fitzgerald, knows the answer to that question.

The court almost had to take up this issue again. It was clear in 2003 when it said that you could not limit this procedure unless certain exceptions were in place. Congress then enacted a law without those restrictions and now the court will have to decide whether the justification for the Congressional action is constitutional or not. It should be a very close case, almost certainly a five-four ruling.
