I call out to all lawyers/law professors to answer the call. We need you to counter the 'limited view of Congress' and other accusations re: previous cases and opinions. We also need to be tutored in the law as pertains the upcoming confirmation hearing.

We really need your help. Thanks.

Of the two law schools that I attended, only part-time adjunct faculty were Republicans...and they kept their views quiet in order to retain their positions.

Given the fact that most law professors in most schools see the constitution as a minor impediment, it is amazing that there all so many lawyers and judges who actually respect the Constitution and seek to enforce it. My experience may be typical.

I was taught that it was "good" when the Court looked at the "penumbras" of the Constitution, and "extended" its guarantees. I did not begin to learn that this was a pernicious doctrine which threatened the very existence of the Constitution, until I was out of law school in in practice.

I thoroughly agree that law professors who would sign such a letter are incompetent to to talk about, much less teach about, the Constitution of the United States.

Check out the Daily Standard on a regular basis -- a number of conservative law professors are writing op-eds on the issue. On the whole, however, I would not attach much weight to anything said or done by law professors. No one takes them seriously except themselves. The fact that they could only get 160 of these nutcases on a letter is a sign of weakness, not strength.

"Where are the conservative law profesors?"

Both of them are probably having lunch with the conservative university professors. Fast-food no doubt. At the drive-up window. Since they'd all fit in one car.
