Bloodless Coup

Jeffrey Rosen on Justice Stevens

I don't tend to be a fan of Jeffrey Rosen. His raging moderate stances and Very Serious Person persona are rather tedious and rarely enlightening. But if you haven't read it yet, his profile of Justice Stevens that was in the New York Time Magazine last weekend is actually quite good. Nice coverage of the changing politics of the Court, and lots of insights into life and approach of the senior justice. I both learned some things, and was entertained.
