We’re living in a pretty topsy-turvy world when Chief Justice John Roberts is supposed to get praise for judicial restraint rather than getting pummeled by both sides of the political aisle for failing to give either of them what they want. I can understand what Noah Feldman is saying, particularly in the context of our times, but I think his argument is frankly nuts.
You don’t deserve praise for being half as radical as Antonin Scalia.
