The Scholarship of Appearance

There's an idiom that captures the essence of this post, but it eludes me,  just as it appears to have eluded Randy Barnett.

(And Josh Blackman fails to note that the Balkin/Siegel tome is red.  Red!)

@Professor Miller.
Thanks for the link from one of my favorite blogs! I'm flattered to have my name mentioned in the same sentence as Randy. In response, the red cover is offset by the jingoistic American flag, so I didn't think that comment warranted my attention! And technically, shouldn't the cover include the American flag in 2020, with stars for all 57 states! :) But see this comment http://joshblogs.wordpress.com/2009/09/30/comparing-covers-constitution-in-2020-and-restoring-the-lost-constitution/#comment-38

Okay "Professor Miller," if that is indeed your real name, I'll take a stab at it: "Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged." No, that's not Quite right but I have a feeling I'm on the right track...
