Once again it looks as though the President is going to make a Supreme Court nomination while I'm out of town and in a condition of diminished internet access.
I will be, as matter of fact, with Justice Scalia. He is teaching a CLE on separation of powers, with Prof. John Baker, through the Federalist Society. "With" must be understood in context: I will be one of about 300 participants drinking in Our Hero's words and elbowing folks to get closer to him at the hors-d'oeuvre table. Been there, done that, doin' it again.
If I get a chance to ask him a question, it will be about the nondelegation doctrine, and whether his opinion for the Court in Whitman v. American Trucking means that it is in effect (if not in theory) non-justiciable.
I wonder if a lot of people will be pumping him for his views on Roberts and/or the next nominee. In a way I hope so, because he can't and won't answer such questions, and will therefore find my pedantic little concerns about nondelegation somewhat of a relief.
So anyway, sit tight, visit Confirm Them and other distinguished sites, and I'll blog at you when I blog at you.
