Judge Silberman on David Brock[edit]

Michael Barone published a long letter from Judge Silberman responding to David Brock on August 18 2006. See [1].

Barone also mentions Judge Silberman's extraordinary and rather disturbing article from July 2005 about J. Edgar Hoover and his secret files.

Should the article mention or link to these documents?

Paragraph divisions[edit]

I've broken the article up into paragraphs, though I'm not sure I got the divisions right. I also added a mention of reading Hoover's secret blackmail files. Feel free to improve on my edit. Thanks, CWC(talk) 06:27, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bot-created subpage[edit]

A temporary subpage at User:Polbot/fjc/Laurence Hirsch Silberman was automatically created by a perl script, based on this article at the Biographical Directory of Federal Judges. The subpage should either be merged into this article, or moved and disambiguated. Polbot (talk) 20:52, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done.--TommyBoy (talk) 01:07, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Clarence Thomas[edit]

This section is too small and says nothing about Thomas. I think it should either be removed or expanded upon.108.45.91.166 (talk) 19:13, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
