That implies Roberts is willing to stick his dick into politics in the first place to tell Congress to be politically neutral though. Not to mention he's a falling star among the Reps who's lost his status as True ConservativeTM thanks to refusing to vote for overturning Obamacare.

Just a nerdy observation: CNN ran a flowery memorial package a little while ago. All the footage of people saying Good Things about Scalia was on 4:3 pillarboxed video tape. So that's how far back they had to go for that.

Hollismason posted:Clarence Thomas is more conservative than Scalia. I agree, but not in the "aligns entirely with modern GOP" sense. He considers the Commerce Clause and stare decisis to be bullshit. I love his opinions and will probably never agree with a single one.

Piers Morgan may be a pill, but compared with Scalia he's positively charming.

"Today President Barack Obama nominated Donald Trump to the Supreme Court. When asked for his reasoning the President responded: "gently caress all y'all." The President then proceeded to flip the assembled reporters the middle finger and then cartwheeled offstage."

I'm going to try and reflect on the man's life rather than celebrate his death: Antonin Scalia was a male biped. He breathed the same air as the rest of us, except when at the country club.

Yeah, that's an amazing quote. Or paraphrase I hope. The government torturing confessions out of people? Nothing wrong with that! I used to say I didn't wish Scalia dead necessarily, just that I wouldn't want anything done to him he'd think was unconstitutional. Moot point now.

Yeah, I was paraphrasing, but that's the core of his argument. Because people weren't actually being sentenced to be tortured as punishment for a crime, the restriction on 'cruel and unusual punishment' doesn't apply.
