Cass Sunstein
Tim Mak at NewMajority.com quotes me to the effect that while I’ve disagreed with some of the eminent lawprof’s ideas in the past, and don’t expect to agree with everything he does in his new post as regulatory review manager, he’s likely to give free-market views a fairer and more thoughtful hearing than they’d have gotten from almost anyone else likely to fill the position. Related from NewMajority.com founder David Frum, David Weigel, and Carter Wood; earlier.
Speaking of renowned Chicago law professors with reputations that cut across ideological lines: “Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.) has blocked President Obama’s candidate for regulation czar, Harvard law professor Cass Sunstein, because Sunstein has argued that animals should have the right to sue humans in court.” [The Hill; mostly favorable coverage of Sunstein's nomination and views at my other site, Point of Law].
