that's right. , who would be the justices to regularly tweet and would be sonya sotomayor. not for a long time. justices have a way of doing hings that they are very reluctant to change. to explain in a written long explanation of why we voted the way we did. arguments are in public. people file their briefs in public. so they think they're very open. >> bear in mind also that each ave four brainiac 25-year-old clerks and those folks, i'm can monitors social media and brings stuff to their bosses. whether or not it affects them, it's a couple of decades behind the technology. decided a major pager case. >> and i personally think that a scalia tweet would be in all caps. >> question. yeah. there's one in the back i'm seeing a hand. you stand up. >> as journalists and educators. 'm wondering -- i don't know how many of you have a law degree. do.now some of you how critical is it to have a legal background to cover the supreme court. students, if you're a good reporter, you can master any beat. is that true for the supreme court? cover it if you do not have a legal background?

and the attorney when sotomayor asked didn't have a persuasive response at all. he started talking about tradition and history. you're going to find a much stronger tradition and history for the male-female aspect of marriage. so once you say that the male-female aspect of marriage is irrational and arbitrary, what's so magical about the number two? because the way that we arrived at monogamy in western law, the way we got it into american marriage law was that it was one man and one woman. because only one man and one woman can unite in the teach of act that produces new life. every new life has exactly one mother and one father, and marriage is the relationship that unifies those people and those relationships. but once you sever the connection from the male-female part, what's left ability the number two? why are twosomes magical in a way that others aren't? the same question can then be asked about permanency, which we've already seen with no-fault divorce, but also with sexual exclusivity. marriage has been a sexually-exclusive relationship. you only slept w

. >> so you mean to tell me scalia, roberts, sotomayor, sat there and listened to oral arguments overns? >> yes. and they had some very penetrating questions. >> as the supreme court transcript shows, the court may have been the only one taking this seriously. >> case 12-123, horne v. department of agriculture. >> what was the interest that they're claiming was taken by the government? >> do you have any idea how many landmark cases we still have to rule on? >> being part raisin, i feel i must recuse myself. >> may i please have a raisin. >> get these raisins out of my (bleep)ing court! >> in the end the justices ruled unanimously that it wasn't worth their time to issue a ruling. but marvin horne vows to fight on. >> i declared war on the u.s.d.a. i'm not going to give you my raisins anymore. >> sounds like you're raisin a little hell. (laughter) be careful, marvin, the raisin council is a ruthless organization. you remember these lovable guys? ever wonder what happened to them? >> well, we used them about 25 years ago and used them until their value and their equity was up. >> so yo

we speak with justices anthony scalia, sonia sotomayor, sandra day o'connor, john paul stevens and stephenformer chief justice the late william rehnquist. >> look, i don't have to prove the textualism is perfect, i just have to prove it is better than anything else. there is a lot of suggestion that i really changed my views on the death penalty, and i am not really sure that is accurate. >> i like to play bridge, i like to play poker, i like to play charades. >> you like to bet on basketball games. >> which we have done.

we speak with justices anthony scalia, sonia sotomayor, sandra day o'connor, john paul stevens and stephen breyer, also former chief justice the late william rehnquist. >> look, i don't have to prove the textualism is perfect, i just have to prove it is better than anything else. there is a lot of suggestion that i really changed my views on the death penalty, and i am not really sure that is accurate. >> i like to play bridge, i like to play poker, i like to play charades. >> you like to bet on basketball games. >> which we have done. >> which we have just done, yes. >> i am honored to have been the first woman on the court, i mean, how could i ever imagine doing anything like that? >> i think anything helps you understand human beings will help you ultimately understand the law, that is what law is about. >> the dang search that you think of judges as computers, which we are not, the danger is, we are human beings. >> which strengths and weaknesses. >> rose: the supremes, next. funding for charlie rose was provided by the following. >> rose: additional funding provided by these funders.

it's not a matter of the sitting justices telling cagen or sotomayor cameras are terrible, don't you dare take another step in that direction. it's just there is this feeling, and i think cagen has talked about this. many talk about this. once you're in the court, you're on the court. you feel like, holy mo will, i'm in the supreme court, i'm on the supreme court, and i don't want to -- i don't want to mess it up, you know? they have this feeling, this fear that as stewards of the supreme court they don't want to make a change like that because hey think it's going to spoil, spoil what the magic of the court, the mystique of the court. of course i could argue that whenever the court is more available, it's in the spotlight, it usually ends up looking pretty good. think the why they cameras -- familiarity breeds contempt. they tend to think that, the more familiar, the less the public will like them. and i think it's just the opposite is the case. but the short answer, i really don't know how else it's going come about except for congress picking it up and legislating, requiring it by

it is not a matter of the sitting justices telling kagan sotomayor, cameras are terrible, do not take a step in that direction. there is this feeling that some have talked about. in the court, you are on the court, you feel like, holy moly, i am on the supreme court. i do not want to mess it up. they have this fear, as stewards of the supreme court, they do not want to make a change like that because they think it will spoil the magic, the mystique of the court. of course, i always argue, whenever the court is more visible, in the spotlight, it usually ends up looking pretty good. i do not know why -- it is like familiarity of the court. i do not know how the case will congresst, except for taking it up and requiring it by law, i do not see how it will happen. has gotten less likely in recent years. there is no principled reason to exclude the american public from seeing the government at work. it is ridiculous. on the other hand, if i were on the court, i would be happy with the way that things are, particularly with the rise of stewart and colbert and the like. it is not always the

[applause] sotomayor bloomberg would concentrate on -- if mayor bloomberg would concentrate on the crime on wall street rather than the perceived crime in the black neighborhoods, maybe we would see some progress. >> anyone else? >> i don't think i can add anything to what has been said. i want to -- [inaudible] with my friend, good friend and supporter, my fellow freedom rider of 1961 when we boarded a bus right here on may 4, 1961, the senior barack obama was born. hank was only 19 i guess. >> you were the old man. >> i was 21.
