Scalia loves him some Security State

[n2doc]

The topic of the NSA's controversial surveillance of telephone metadata came up during a laughter-filled Q&A between Scalia and Judge Andrew Napolitano, a faculty member at Brooklyn Law School and a close personal friend of the justice he accidentally called "Nino."

While suggesting that the high court will take up NSA surveillance, Scalia expressed his opinion that judges should not be deciding matters of national security.

"The Supreme Court doesn't know diddly about the nature and extent of the threat," Scalia said. Later on, he added, "It's truly stupid that my court is going to be the last word on it."

Still, he hinted he would rule that NSA surveillance does not violate the Constitution if and when the issue comes before the Supreme Court. Although one judge has ruled the spying violates the Fourth Amendment, Scalia may disagree based on his strict interpretation of the Constitution.

More like biased and completely subjective interpretation of the Constitution….

1. Ah, well, its good that Fat Tony

has decided to just skip that whole evidence and argument stuff and has already made his decision on how he is going to rule.

Yes, we all know that's how he is going to rule, but he isn't even making a pretense of being a judge.
