Right, I took Abbots pr as confirmation

Holy cow

Took no time for people to politicize it. Of course Republicans think we should wait a year to appoint replacement because that makes sense.

I'm not sure it's out of bounds to politicize a position with a lifetime appointment. Their health and lives are political issues with huge ramifications. This is a mammoth development.

I agree but I'm talking about Cruz and McConnell. Not Joe Schmo on Twitter. And I'm sure it'll be brought up at the debate tonight. Maybe I'm too Sawft

Yeah David Frum just had an interesting take on that on Twitter. Unfortunately I'm on my phone.

People will show their true selves online over this. Twitter, well, that place is a cesspool normally, will be overflowing next few days.

Whole bunch of potentially huge rulings could change because of this. Public sector unions, clean coal regulation, the Texas affirmative action case.

SCOTUS appointments are one of the most important aspects of a President's rule, but for some reason rarely get talked about in election cycles. This will change that. Not how I wanted that change to come, though. I disagreed with pretty much every opinion Scalia wrote, and he was clearly a pretty hateful person, but it doesn't mean I'm happy to see him dead. He was a brilliant guy, and he made you think about the reasons you supported your position. That's important.

This is going to get real ugly, real quick.

Very sad. A human being has died, Internetworld. I know you don't care. But a good person is dead. Let's talk about him, not his replacement.

Was he really a good person though?

Antonin #Scalia requested cremation in his will, but millions of women will meet tomorrow to discuss if that's really best for his body.

 

Be offended if you'd like, but I think that's a quality tweet .

Scalia was a hateful, racist, and misogynistic son of a b****; that being said he followed his own moral compass and that's what makes freedom wonderful.

 

I disagreed with the guy on almost everything but my heart does go out to his family and loved ones.

Too bad that same logic isn't applied for mandatory health care...

No, you cannot take my family's health insurance away and please stop trying.

The thing is, is there was no actual supreme court vacancies then.

I didn't realize he was carrying a living being inside of him.
