You scruffy, bearded, sandal-wearing idiot.
Antonin Scalia didn't mince words in his dissenting opinion on Friday's Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage. The conservative justice called his colleague Anthony Kennedy's opinion for the majority "as pretentious as its content is egotistic," adding that it diminished "this Court's reputation for clear thinking and sober analysis." Over the last three decades, he has peppered his dissents (for the most part) with put-downs of his colleagues, plaintiffs, or whatever it was he was angry about on the day of writing. And now, with Mother Jones' handy Scalia Insult Generator, you can create your own!
Some ghoul in a
late-night horror movie that repeatedly sits up
in its grave and shuffles abroad, after being
repeatedly killed and buried is pure applesauce.

This new, keep-what-

utter nonsense.

SCALIA INSULT GENERATOR BUTTON
All insults are derived from actual Antonin Scalia quotes, except for "Your mom." Your mom is fake. Wait, no, I didn't mean it like that. I'm sure she's lovely.

This somersault of statutory interpretation will almost certainly cause more Americans to be killed.

(8,377 posts)5. This guy is a national embarrassment
He's talking mostly gibberish nowadays.
Argle-Bargle and jiggery-pokery are not legal terms. They barely quality as words at all.
This guy looks lie a caricature of the crazy old prospector you see in wild west movies.
He is nuts. Time to move for impeachment.
Surya Gayatri
(15,445 posts)6. He looks extremely unhealthy. I believe his obvious high blood pressure
is playing havoc with his brain.

The RW and their corporate puppet masters would suffer a huge, huge blow.
If RBG could hold on til the next Dem President was in office? The damage would be long lasting and perhaps permanent.
Scalia's increasing use of word-salad is certainly indicative of something beyond mere rightwingedness.
BlueStreak
(8,377 posts)8. His "word salad" is not just colorful expressions. He is senile.
I'm sorry for his condition, but he should not be allowed to keep this position.
