Politico‘s Ken Vogel has a piece up on the left-wing war on conservative Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas, Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito (Alito has been attacked for speaking at the Spectator‘s annual dinner). What’s clear from the article is that the criticism is coming exclusively from left-wing groups, as Vogel even quotes several liberal legal scholars who say the charges are baseless For instance:
And Michael Waldman, executive director of the left-leaning Brennan Center for Justice at New York University’s School of Law, called the allegations that Thomas and Scalia were biased by their affiliation with the Koch retreat “meritless. We see no basis for the accusations that the Justices’ decisions are based on anything but the merits.” He warned that “people should think very hard before asking prosecutors to investigate judges just because they dislike the decisions they make.”
