The following reminds me of the Paper Chase, where the intimidating Professor Kingsfield darned near ended a guy's ambition to be a lawyer. Instead of folding, Leavitt delivers an excellent defense of herself, and maybe saved her own career, as well as reaffirming the importance of the First Amendment. If the Supreme Court doesn't allow criticism of itself, then how can we have a First Amendment? Indeed, how can any part of the Constitution be safe from a Court that doesn't allow its decisions to be questioned?
