I can't source the text yet because no US has covered the speech except NPR and now Slate reporting on NPR's coverage.

Apparently, in a speech Sandra Oconnor (a Reagan appointee) said in a speech that she felt the country, if it continued current political trends, was headed toward dictatorship. I'm sure it was hyperbole, but this is a pretty damning condemnation coming from a centrist juriist appointed during a Republican administration.

Oh, how powerful the Liberal bias of the press .
