Antonin Scalia dead

Time to see if the GOP in the Senate will grow some balls and delay until after the election. The dems would if in a similar position.
The Repubs need to dig in on this one. Keep the lame duck away from it and make the fall election 100% about the Supreme Court and the future of the country.
He should have died from his dead, shriveled heart 70 years ago. His legacy will always finding a way to be on the wrong side of history.
Yep typical lib response...Scalia fought for the Constitution and the Rule of Law, two things that libs hate.
And by the way, his best friend on the court, when outsid the court?
Ruth Bader-Ginsburg. Which proves he was able to fight for Constitutional principles but not make it personal.
Easily the greatest legal mind of his generation. Which is why syskatine doesn't like him.

Now you of all people are going to lecture someone about being classy?
He was a world class chickenshit. That's his legacy. Go mourn your hero which, again, was a world class chickenshit.
Saw Lindsey Graham on a little while ago and said they will dig in on this one. Believe it when I see it.
Me of all people? What exactly does that mean?
And I guess we'll just have to take your word for it that Scalia was a chicken shit. After all, you said it twice in two consecutive sentences.
So? You think like him, too. Since he had a friendship with a colleague let's pretend his awful, shitty, heartless, racist, chickenshit judicial legacy doesn't matter?
I'll tell you his legal thinking: Protect the privileged. Afflict the afflicted. Don't change your thinking or perspective over 50 years. Work for Richard Nixon. That's his legal thinking.
So, you've got nothing to back up your BS. As per usual.

You were banned, Glove. It wasn't for the tenderness of your posts either. Do you really want to go there?
One last thing -- there at the end, in this last session with his questioning in the UT case? It embarrassed the entire federal judiciary and everyone but him knew it. He was losing it. Pretty bad note to leave on if you ask me.
Please give me some more editorials from conservative mouth pieces. Very effective. Especially the New Republic:

FYI, Jeff offered to let me come back either the day I was banned or within less than one week. So, it must've been really heinous. I said no thanks at the time because I was still kind of PO'd (not at Jeff particularly, he and I had a discussion about the issues and sort of agreed to disagree on a few things) and because I thought I could use a break.
That's your definition of how I "of all people" shouldn't talk about class? Pretty weak. As per usual.
Sounds like the dried up vagina you worship. Strange.
What exactly have you accomplished in your career? Seems cheap to call a Supreme Court Justice a chickenshit, especially if you've achieved very little in comparison. But I guess name calling is the liberal way when you lack the credentials or knowledge to post anything more substantive than that.
Sounds like you have an immense amount of jealousy, if I'm being honest. It's ok, not everybody can be a SCOTUS Justice. That takes at least a little bit of integrity, something you've proven you lack.
Prayers to the family of Antonin Scalia. RIP.
Sad day for America. With the backdrop of this election all I can say is This. God save the republic.
Yeah "great" legal mind----
“There are those who contend that it does not benefit African-Americans to get them into the University of Texas, where they do not do well, as opposed to having them go to a less-advanced school, a slower-track school where they do well,” Scalia said. “One of the briefs pointed out that most of the black scientists in this country don't come from schools like the University of Texas. They come from lesser schools where they do not feel that they're being pushed ahead in classes that are too fast for them.”

Cup didn't misunderstand it. Daily Kos or Salon did. Cup has no original thought.
Read that quote from him. You could take that quote and transpose it into the government's argument in Brown v Board of Education.
