Post-Booker patience is a virtue, perhaps

Though I remain troubled by the US Sentencing Commission's work to date on Booker issues (see here and here), I am pleased to report that I am hearing buzz that we might see the USSC's comprehensive Booker report relatively soon (perhaps well before May).

Thus, others like me eager for more information from the USSC about post-Booker realities may just need to be a bit more patient: the USSC is apparently working hard on all the post-Booker issues about which commentators are curious. Of course, I especially hope that DOJ and Congress and anyone else thinking about possible Booker fixes are also patient and are sure to await word from the USSC before moving forward on any serious legislative proposals.
