I'm not sure what your problem is. I'm dead serious. I accurately
catalogued Dershowitz's evidence of antisemitism. I applied the rules
of evidence because they are designed to evaluate the reliability of
evidence -- they are not mere formalities or technicalities. Their
application to Dershowitz's evidence lent itself to ridicule because
his evidence is ridiculous. If you have a better way to evaluate the
evidence, use yours, but it seems to me that Prof. Dershowitz has
accomplished his purpose when we have lawyers allowing that it's
"fine to suggest Dershowitz support his allegations," but all the
same they are "resonating here."
I'm done. The defense rests -- unless somebody who actually liked
Rehnquist wants to take over.
