Conservative labels
Why does Wikipedia continue to label various persons as "conservative" lawyer, "conservative" scholar, etc, as if some sort of warning label is required for "conservative" thought? I see no such labels for "progressive" persons. For example, Laurence Tribe and Erwin Chemerinsky are not labeled as "progressive" legal scholars even though they most certainly are, while many "conservative" persons are labeled as such. Why? Shouldn't a person work be allowed to stand or fall on the merits, rather than on the basis on an arbitrary label?
