Things You Don't Expect

  The Justices of the Supreme Court like each other .


     Looks like a lot more than their respective factions and supporters ever did.

They might as well like each other's company, as they are stuck with it for life.

A couple of years ago, Alito had a Federalist Society dinner crowd laughing as he recalled that he was assigned to the constitutional law class taught by the liberal Charles Reich rather than conservative icon Robert Bork. Yale would not allow him to switch.

“I was forced to teach myself,” he said.

Alito told the crowd that during the years he and Thomas were the only Yalies on the Supreme Court, he could only imagine the thoughts of Yale’s liberal professoriate: “Where did we go wrong?”

On Saturday, Alito said the remembrances of his performance at Yale might be exaggerated with time. “But it sounds good, so I’m not going to deny it,” he said.
