Graduation Speaker Choice: A Retrospective

In hindsight, choosing Judge Schroeder as the graduation speaker seems like a genius move given the revelations about current Chief Judge Kozinski. According to the LA Times, Kozinski basically peddled his own porn on his personal website.

The money quote: "The sexually explicit material on Kozinski's site earlier this week was extensive, including images of masturbation, public sex and contortionist sex. There was a slide show striptease featuring a transsexual, and a folder that contained a series of photos of women's crotches as seen through snug fitting clothing or underwear. There were also themes of defecation and urination, though they are not presented in a sexual context."

Thank you Judge Kozinski, and may it please the court. Feel free to add your own pithy, wry, disgruntled that you can't get a seat at Bar/Bri remarks. See also ATL coverage here.

UPDATE 1: As early as 2004, this Legal Affairs article revealed some tell-tale signs: "He has written video game reviews for The Wall Street Journal and an account of a Malibu pajama and lingerie party for the online magazine Slate. Six pet chickens have the run of his property in the beachfront community of Palos Verdes, where he lives with his wife and three sons."
