Re: Justice Scalia to meet in closed door session with tea party

Just one of right wing activitist judges who help give us Bush in 2000. Voted to permit unlimited funds from corporations to candidates. Just your typical Tea Bagger.
 
Re: Justice Scalia to meet in closed door session with tea party

It's not a secret closed meeting for the Tea Party. All members of Congress may attend. They should jump at the chance.

its just closed to us normal people and the press

HA

We aren't talking about a rep from Indiana... we are talking about one of the nine.

Between this nonsense, and Thomas's wife being a self proclaimed activist for the tea party, I am beginning to think the court has been compromised.

I think there may be a few cases that need to be retried and a few justices that either need to stay home or retire.

O'Connor or Rendquist would not have done this.

And just for the record? I really think the tea party is dangerous, and their explosive popularity was a response to a black president. I am still waiting to hear a real agenda from them.

Taxes are unreasonably low and historically low. So this tax nonsense is just BS.

if these people want a smaller gov't then tell them to turn down their social security and medicare as a symbolic protest. No they just want smaller govt for the "other" people. They talk about taking their nation back.... back from whom? did the Kenyans run away with it or something.

They make no sense whatsoever. That with the ties they have to big money and industry?

Associating with them now is going to be like voting for the Iraq war. They are eventually going to poison every politician that took a ride on their crazy train.

It comes from not really knowing where all our money goes, with a response like taking the teenager's credit card away when he spends irresponsibly. Trouble is that cutting taxes doesn't equate to taking away the credit card.
 
Re: Justice Scalia to meet in closed door session with tea party

I think it places him in a bad place. I don't even know if a supreme court justice can recuse himself from a case. But it creates the posiblity if appearance of conflict of interest.

That is the standard that judges use to decide on recusal. Not Whether they are biased, only they know that, and we all have values and opinions. Those are bound to express themselves....

If the teaparty sues the gov't to change a law, and it goes before the supreme court, it has to appear that he has no conflict of interest. How can he do that after this?

Do you share the same criticism of Stephen Breyer, for doing a very similar thing in the 80s? This is from your own article:

Substantive meetings between members of the high court and legislators are not unusual. Justice Stephen Breyer in the last week addressed a private bipartisan retreat for House Judiciary Committee members. The justice had been chief counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee from 1979 to 1980 under then-Chairman Edward Kennedy, D-Massachusetts.

bipartisan retreat

BIPARTISAN
 
Re: Justice Scalia to meet in closed door session with tea party

And? Did you even read your own article? The session Scalia is speaking to is open to any member of congress.

Who mostly seem to have the good sense to not attend. besides, This is not about the congress, they don't hear cases.

and out of curiosity, do you always need to include an insult in every post you make?
 
Re: Impaired Judgment: Justice Scalia Just Doesn’t Know When To Stop Talking

The more important question is how much longer before Scalia chokes on his own bile and expires?

Tick tock.
 
Re: Impaired Judgment: Justice Scalia Just Doesn’t Know When To Stop Talking

Injustice Scalia prejudicing a current case once again? Its a pity they can't force him out of office for doing that. If you make a mistake in any profession, you pay the consequences, but not when you're a supreme court justice it seems. Cushy jobs for life. It's got to end.

Scalia Furious He Has to Hear About Gay Couples All Week

March 28, 2013
Bitter Scalia Leaves U.S.
Posted by Andy Borowitz



WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Justice Antonin Scalia dropped a bombshell on the Supreme Court today, announcing his decision to resign from the Court “effective immediately” and leave the United States forever.

Calling this week “by far the worst week of my life,” Justice Scalia lashed out at his fellow-Justices and the nation, saying, “I don’t want to live in a sick, sick country that thinks the way this country apparently thinks.”

Justice Scalia said that he had considered fleeing to Canada, “but they not only have gay marriage but also national health care, which is almost as evil.”
 
Re: Scalia Furious He Has to Hear About Gay Couples All Week

Scalia,one of the worst parts of St. Ronnie's legacy.
 
Re: Scalia Furious He Has to Hear About Gay Couples All Week

Is this real? If so, I hope he carries out his promise of resigning and leaving the USA. Replace him with someone who isn't a homophobic asshole.

ADDED:

I just saw this is humor. But what I said wasn't. He needs to go. Those vestiges of the Reagan administration are cancer in this country.
 
Re: Scalia Furious He Has to Hear About Gay Couples All Week

Andy Borowitz is a comedian so I doubt this is real---real---but probably (like most good comedy) close enough to the truth.
 
Re: Scalia Furious He Has to Hear About Gay Couples All Week

He's not going anywhere. I saw an interview on him in which he said he collects a full retirement benefit equal to his salary ($165K?) when he turned 65. So, he said that he essentially is working for free and that he dosen't care because he loves his job.
