I guess the Becket Fund won't be citing Justice O'Connor's backing of  strict 
scrutiny under the Free Exercise Clause in its future  works?   I would have 
thought those who would attack her  would have given her the weekend to be 
lauded.  But I'm a former clerk and  extremely fond of her. 
 
With respect to her influence on the Religion Clauses-- while it is true  
that she has altered the Establishment Clause jurisprudence, she has not been in  
the majority on the Free Exercise Clause since 1990 and Smith.
