Thanks to Linda Hirshman I feel like I finally got at least familiar with the process, not because she wrote a lightweight book but because she made it interesting enough for me to put in the mental work.

Watching the RBG documentary, I noticed a copy of the book on RBG's desk and tweeted that to the author. Of course she'd already noticed ;-)<br /><br />Susan (thecuecard) might want to add in the audio and make this a read/listen combination. It sure helped me!

She just keeps on keeping on. In fact, on that Constitution blog I mentioned her opinion (or whatever it's called, I already forgot everything I learned in the book; not really but oh my the terminology of law has always caused me trouble) was partially quoted regarding the most recent case. Yes, we are so fortunate to have her plus two more women!Judy Kruegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11632346091869688862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-82981271327458214212019-06-04T16:33:03.331-07:002019-06-04T16:33:03.331-07:00mudpuddle!

Yes, the book does let in some light, though of course, since it was published other bad things have happened.
