‘Red Light for Reynolds’

Thank you for your editorial about the chopping down of William Bradford Reynolds’ nomination by the Senate Judiciary Committee.

To one of Reagan’s most formidable hatchet men, who has attempted to dismember many of the civil rights laws fought so hard for, I can only say: “Good riddance!”

And as to Reynold’s buddy and staunch supporter in “justice,” the No. 1 civil rights thug, Atty. Gen. Edwin Meese III, as he attempts to make his way to the Big Bench, I have a message for our dottering but honest U.S. Supreme Court justices: “Hang in there.”
