Robert Bork, R.I.P.

Robert Bork  was attacked  shamelessly  and unfairly  by liberals and progressives,  who were so desperate to keep him off the Supreme Court that  they lied  through their collective teeth.  I saw him on a number of televised panels,  and he seems never to have lost his sense of humor or his ability to think rapidly and answer with brief precision.   He deserves better than being remembered chiefly for having his last name turned into a verb   —  chiefly for his ardent,  lifelong defense of the Constitution.

Here are  some remembrances which  give you  a flavor of the man.   I especially like Mario Loyola’s  “intellectual feast”  and  this sample of  some of Bork’s published works from the Wall Street Journal.
