Credit to Elena Kagan: In her confirmation hearing (still underway), Kagan testified that when she read the quote from her Bowen v. Kendrick memo (discussed here) on a blog, she said about her own statement something like, “That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever read.” That’s overly harsh, but still refreshing.
(I won’t fault Kagan for not giving a shout-out to Bench Memos either in that answer or in another one in which she plainly referred to another Bench Memos post, but I’m happy to have her as a reader, if only temporarily.)
