John over at johnincarolina has a good post linking to a great op/ed about Sen. Schumer. As he always does, Justice Scalia seems to cut right to the heart of the discussion, in this case skewering Schumer's call for "moderate" judges:

What in the world is a moderate interpretation of a constitutional text? Halfway between what it says and what we'd like it to say?"
