Whoa Whoa Whoa, stop the clock!
Some stuff for you to read during the Bench & Bar conference today:
The Rothstein world of Broward county was really a third world kinda place. Sure, many, many people wish they could turn back the clock...but this isnt the point. The issue is this- if your ethics, your morality are susceptible to corruption you will always be seduced by the next Rothstein-like guy...the problem is within you, within me. Either you are an honorable person and in this way you never have to turn back the clock or you are not. Cops, lawyers, judges, politicians, judicial nominating committees, were all exposed as having penetrable ethics. Rothstein is not the culprit, he is the symptom of a deeper problem in the legal system.

You mean Scalia's cable provide does not offer HBO, he is too cheap to ante up for HBO or is he still trying to figure out who the Yellow King is?
