Another Justice Calls For International Influence on U.S. Constitution

Sounds like "Sleeping Beauty" Ginsburg is the latest to take up the argument for consulting foreign law in interpreting the U.S. Constitution:
"Supreme Court Justice Ruth Ginsburg gave a speech in South Africa last month, which, for some reason, is just now being publicized. Ginsburg's speech was titled 'A Decent Respect for the Opinions of [Human]kind.' In it, Ginsburg argued explicitly for the relevance of foreign law and court decisions to interpretation of the American Constitution."
For my take on the subject back when Justice Kennedy made such a proposal, read this post.

What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. Let's apply her philosophy to her first. :-)

I had great fun with this at my blog.

Enjoy!
