Thanks PB! I will certainly keep them coming! It may just be that I keep them coming on a related webpage: I am considering politics.blogatory.com. All of the comments folks have posted have taken your view, but I have gotten some offline comments suggesting that the political posts be separated from the regular posts.

Thanks for the feedback, Stephen!

Thanks for the feedback, Aaron. Much appreciated. I am also receiving some comments off-line. I’ll have a post in the next day or so explaining what I’m going to do.

Yes, they work. No, they aren’t a distraction. They’re critical to civil discourse.

God knows the Fourth Estate has completely abdicated its duty of criticism since 9/11. And it’s not likely to stand up now that it gets a daily ass-chewing from the President-elect.

We lawyers would be derelict in our duty if we don’t have the discussion.

Thanks Carolyn. My two concerns are, first, not to annoy people who come here to keep up with the case law, and second, not to make people who voted for the other candidate to feel unwelcome.
