 I wouldn't imagine him jumping in to cut off Justice (Ruth Bader) Ginsburg or Justice Scalia if they are talking too long. |
| It tells us a bit about how the Catholic experience in America has gone from that of being a mistrusted minority in the 19th century to an insular minority during much of the 20th century to an integrated part of the American community, generally, and also the legal community. |
| It's actually kind of a recent idea that in order to judge a nominee, you had to have tons and tons of paper, ... For most of history it was, you know, someone's nominated, probably a friend of the president ... You had hearings, and in the hearings you asked some questions, and the questions gave you the answers, and that was it. No one asked about how you were going to rule in Roe v. Wade, how you were going to rule in Miranda, whatever. |
| It's been awhile since the Supreme Court had any new members, ... And one thing we've seen is that when the Court gets a new member, no matter what that member's views are, it sometimes tends to change the dynamics. When Justice Thomas came on the Court, Justice Souter started voting differently. |
| It's not the usual thing, but it doesn't strike me as being troubling. It would be a mistake to read it as payback. |

But that's unfortunate, because whatever one's ideological views, based on his merits he is one of the best qualified nominees in 50 years. |

| There are no airs about this guy, no pretension, |
| This year, the whole court seems to be willing to go along with clear, concise, yet not very sweeping decisions. Some of these cases had the potential to be controversial, but they are focusing on the issues they agree on. |
| Through most of our history a lot of Americans would have been freaked out by the idea of more than one, ... For a long time there was the one Catholic seat and one Jewish seat. |
| When he was first on the court, he was challenging the dominant way of thinking. But when he became chief, he decided his role was different. The chief has a stewardship obligation, in his view, and is the face of the court and caretaker of the institution. That's bound to change the way you do things. |
| When people say there will be seismic changes in affirmative action and religion, I think that's just smoke, ... I don't think there's much room for change. There's room at the margins in close cases. |
