4. Huh? Antonin Scalia RETIRE? Nope. No way.
.

Huh? Antonin Scalia RETIRE? Nope. No way. Scalia is very *into* pontificating and scolding others in his marvelous (sarcasm) way! He enjoys chewing out lawyers and the other justices while sitting there picking his nose, mentally, as he sits on the SCOTUS during oral arguments.

No way will Scalia retire despite George Walker Bush tossing him aside for John Roberts for Chief Justice! No way.
