Carnival of the Vanities #148 part 1 presented by Justice Kennedy!





Associate Justice Anthony M. Kennedy is first up. The result of President Reagan pointing blindfolded at the Martindale-Hubbell directory after Robert Bork was borked and Douglas Ginsburg withdrew, AMK has delighted liberty-lovers and folks on the left with his opinions bolstering gay rights in Colorado, striking down a Texas law against sodomy, and voting for the death penalty for offenders who committed their crimes while 17 years old before he voted against it.

Fewer dead felons means fewer ghosts, and that's important for Carnival purposes because Mr. Satire notes that 42 percent of liberals believe in ghosts and only 25 percent of conservatives do. The ghost of Justice Potter Stewart says: You'll know some of the photos at this link are only semi-worksafe when you see them!
