"Tabloid Constitutionalism: How a Bill Doesn't Become a Law."

"Tabloid Constitutionalism: How a Bill Doesn't Become a Law." Law Professor Brian C.Kalt has posted this article (abstract with links for download) online at SSRN (via "Legal Theory Blog").

The article's abstract begins, "What does it take to get Congress to pass a law? To get a judge to declare a statute unconstitutional? To get your law-review article featured in the National Enquirer? Based on one data point, at least, I can say that two of those three things are difficult. This piece is a follow-up to my 2005 Georgetown Law Journal article, The Perfect Crime. Back then, I argued that there is a fifty-square-mile swath of Idaho - a so-called zone of death - where one can commit crimes with impunity."
