Opinion Work Product: Rep. Thomas Jefferson Johnson strikes back: bribery will get you nowhere
http://opinion-work-product.blogspot.com/2006/05/rep-thomas-jefferson-johnson-strikes.html
Wednesday, May 24, 2006. Rep Thomas Jefferson Johnson strikes back: bribery will get you nowhere. Interestingly, there is a precedent for congressional brib-ees being entitled to a get out of jail card: U.S. v. Johnson,. Dennis v. United States. 384 US. 855, another prosecution of the brib-ors, and the court again did not decide whether prosecuting a congressional brib-ee was permitted. The later SupCt case, U.S. v. Brewster,. 408 US. 501, also discusses these issues, though I've yet to read it. Does thi...

Opinion Work Product: 12/01/2005 - 01/01/2006
http://opinion-work-product.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 31, 2005. Now taking nominees for worst torts case. So I'm a little libertarian and am very much against the tort system (except for satanic computer companies of course) and so I would like to nominate Kalechman as the most horrifically unjust case. The rental company was statutorily liable in NY: whoever owns the car is liable for a negligent driver. I think that's pretty unfair. Any other cases?

Opinion Work Product: Constitutional Interpretation and the raid on Rep. Jefferson's papers
http://opinion-work-product.blogspot.com/2006/05/constitutional-interpretation-and-raid.html
Thursday, May 25, 2006. Constitutional Interpretation and the raid on Rep. Jefferson's papers. This will likely end up at the Supreme Court.] [Post discusses context of FBI corruption probes. Had little protection. While the Rep couldn't be questioned for anything actually said in a hearing or on the floor, he could be questioned about everything except. You can nab him. The key holding in Gravel. Dissent summarized the previous judicial holding of Coffin v. Coffin. Everything said or done by him, as a r...

Opinion Work Product: The Gravel and Brewster cases: can Rep. Jefferson's papers be seized?
http://opinion-work-product.blogspot.com/2006/05/gravel-and-brewster-cases-can-rep.html
Wednesday, May 24, 2006. The Gravel and Brewster cases: can Rep. Jefferson's papers be seized? An excellent law review article on U.S. v. Brewster,. 408 US. 501, is by Ervin, "The Gravel and Brewster Cases: An Assault on Congressional Independence," 59 Va. L. Rev. 175. I've been skimming it; if I find anything interesting I'll pass it on. I note also that I misspoke below: U.S. v. Johnson. Was in fact affirmed. Posted by Sean Strasburg at 5/24/2006 10:35:00 PM.

Opinion Work Product: Regarding Jefferson's papers, which is more likely: congressional bribery or executive intimidation?
http://opinion-work-product.blogspot.com/2006/05/regarding-jeffersons-papers-which-is.html
Wednesday, May 24, 2006. Regarding Jefferson's papers, which is more likely: congressional bribery or executive intimidation? This is a hard case, because it's symmetric: it's easy to imagine a Rep being bribed, and it's easy to imagine a Pres intimidating opposition members.

Opinion Work Product: Economy in year you graduate strongly effects your income for life
http://opinion-work-product.blogspot.com/2006/05/economy-in-year-you-graduate-strongly.html
Friday, May 26, 2006. Economy in year you graduate strongly effects your income for life. Surely the fastest moving blog on the net), I note Austan Goolsbee's new NYTimes article. The economic conditions at the time of your graduation from college have a huge impact on your life earning potential, and those who graduate in the middle of a recession never catch up to those who finish school five years later but during a healthy economy. Where are we on the Kitchen and Juglar cycles. Links to this post:.

Opinion Work Product: Wittgenstein in love: Tegan and Sara

Saturday, May 27, 2006. Wittgenstein in love: Tegan and Sara. Are the words to one of my favorite of their songs, "Where does the good go? It questions, in an almost Wittgensteinian manner, what remains when you and I are subtracted from us, and how vulnerable that remainder is. (Admittedly, to really see the Wittgenstein, you have to have read his Philosophical Explanations. Where do you go. With your broken heart in tow. What do you do. With the left over you. And how do you know. When to let go. Which...
