...on the (quite polemical) legal debate surrounding Bush's veto of the embryonic stem cell research funding act, I came across a post on the blog Mirror of Justice which pointed to a "Justice Talking" program featuring Prof. Rick Garnett, one of my favorite Catholic legal theorists (and my friends tell me he's an excellent professor as well!). Here's the program:

In its first full term, the Roberts Court issued a number of blockbuster decisions on race and public schools, free speech, and abortion. In this special edition of Justice Talking, taped before a studio audience at the National Constitution Center, Supreme Court reporter for ABC News Jan Crawford Greenburg, Notre Dame's Richard Garnett and University of Chicago's Geoffrey Stone analyze the significant decisions of this term and tell us how the addition of two conservative Justices has affected the year's cases.
