Justice Stephen Breyer and Justice Scalia Conversation On The Constitution: Principles of Constitutional and Statutory Interpretation recorded on Monday, Oct. 26th, 2009 at the Leo Rich Theatre, Tucson Convention Center.

Scalia and the other Originalists know the democratic process as designed in our institutions is slow and difficult, so they serve as sort of goalkeepers against progress just in case the people happen to get a shot off, this may not be their intention, but that's always been the effect, and it's no coincidence that these judges find a way to align their policy option selections congruent with their rulings. The Scalia side has little rationale when confronted with the Breyer view and I think Scalia knows it. Highly entertaining.
