Tone it down, Zoltan. I was trying to pass along an amusing story I was told by a friend about Tony Kronman which simply illustrates how scholars sometimes can't see the forest for the trees. I'm not trying to "trash" him. In fact, if you bothered to notice, the story left Bruce Ackerman in the same bad light as Kronman, and he was the one in your story that pooh-poohed the Clinton impeachment. I have no problem with the fact that some Yale law professors (and even some from GWU) believe that Clinton should be impeached. I do not think ill of them for their beliefs; they are likely very principled and intelligent people. Kate Stith, another of the quoted Clinton critics in that article, is married to Jose Cabranes, a man that was appointed to the Court of Appeals by Clinton and is always on the list of next Supreme Court Justices (not that that did Ken Starr any good). One of those Yale professors is also married to Rosa DeLauro (is it Kronman??) who is one of the most liberal members of the Democratic House. It couldn't be easy to say those things about a President who has brought a lot of notoriety to the law school over the last few years and hired a lot of former members of the faculty for high administration positions. But that doesn't change the fact that Jonathan Turley is a media whore.
