“Cheat Sheet to Supreme Court Speak”:

I have an op-ed in the Los Angeles Times today poking fun at newspapers and talking heads for their predictable commentary on Supreme Court vacancies and the confirmation process. It’s basically a reworked version of my blog post from last week, The Only Supreme Court Editorial You Need to Read. The formatting of the online version doesn’t let you see it very well, but the “op-ed template” is supposed to begin in the third paragraph. I’m told that formatting makes it clear in the paper version, but who knows.
