Schroeder to OLP:

BLT reports that Duke University law professor Chris Schroeder will be nominated to be Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Policy. This is an excellent choice, and not just because Prof. Schroeder teaches both constitutional and environmental law. Among many other things, Prof. Schroeder is one of the folks behind Duke Law's Executive Watch blog. More background on the nomination here.

Desiderius:
The team of Urkels (this is a good thing, given the alternatives) adds another. If we're to have technocracy, these are about the best technocrats one could hope for, although some alacrity in filling out the squad would also be nice.

Note the MDiv. The Post-Christian theocracy continues to take shape.

Not among the Group of 88, at least. Beyond that, I don't think it should matter; nothing wrong with a professor who actually decides to keep quiet on a controversial issue.

Comment Policy: We reserve the right to edit or delete comments, and in extreme cases to ban commenters, at our discretion. Comments must be relevant and civil (and, especially, free of name-calling). We think of comment threads like dinner parties at our homes. If you make the party unpleasant for us or for others, we'd rather you went elsewhere. We're happy to see a wide range of viewpoints, but we want all of them to be expressed as politely as possible.

We realize that such a comment policy can never be evenly enforced, because we can't possibly monitor every comment equally well. Hundreds of comments are posted every day here, and we don't read them all. Those we read, we read with different degrees of attention, and in different moods. We try to be fair, but we make no promises.

And remember, it's a big Internet. If you think we were mistaken in removing your post (or, in extreme cases, in removing you) -- or if you prefer a more free-for-all approach -- there are surely plenty of ways you can still get your views out.
