LLC, 2009. 1 online resource (246 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier data file rda Justice Scalia has warned of the danger of fallacies that pass for truth simply because they are frequently repeated. Death Justice argues that one fallacy that passes for truth is the widely held notion that Justices Rehnquist, Scalia, and Thomas applied a fixed standard--itself based on a fixed meaning of the Constitution--to death penalty cases. In defiance of their judicial rhetoric, their conclusions simply defy their, or any, conception of consistency. And without a logical, consistent foundation, their findings on the death penalty come to resemble little more than personal political pr. Print version record. Includes bibliographical references (pages 219-232) and index. Consistency is the very foundation of the rule of law -- The death penalty in american law and politics -- Speaking for the public in death penalty decisions -- Defending the states in death penalty decisions -- The wisdom of jurors in death penalty decisions -- The legal and political implications -- The culture battle -- Death penalty policy: breaking the mold.
