"President Obama’s first 100 days have confirmed that he intends to subject America to a radical makeover. As our elected executive, it is his right to attempt this. But that quest should not be carried out anti-democratically by smuggling foreign law into our legal system. It follows that the Senate should not confirm Harold Koh.
As the State Department’s legal advisor Koh would be well positioned to facilitate the transfer of power from American voters to foreign bureaucrats. For his duties would include helping to formulate the legal positions the United States takes in federal court on questions of the role foreign law plays in our legal system." [Washington Examiner]
