RIP Antonin Scalia

Where was all the caterwauling about Cruz disrespecting Scalia??

 

Illuminati!!!

Justice Scalia spent his last hours with members of this secretive society of elite hunters

 

No. It's not objectively wrong in the sense of theft or lying. It's wrong because it violates a sense of Fairplay and respect to the other side. Once the other side changes the rules, you're obligated by your duty to your constituents to keep up. If a manager would tell his player that even though they're down a run and the opposing 3b is way back, he still shouldn't bunt because the opposing pitcher was working on a no-hitter, I'd disagree but can here it. If the opposing manager had just bunted on your pitcher in the same situation a week before, then the manager is simply a fool.

 

Except we're not talking about a baseball game. We're talking about government, and this particular bit of wrong is getting in the way of these people doing their jobs.

I see your point, but I still think you reaching a bit to defend your side of the aisle.

 

I don't understatnd secret societies, the allure and the reason for the "secrecy." Can we get Nicholas Cage on here to help explain?

On second thought, is it possible a supreme court justice was the ultimate big game trophy?

 

When you change the rules, don't get all weepy when the other side plays by them, too. Or are you suggesting that only the Democrats get to play hardball?

 

I find it comical that you think the Democrats even know how to play hardball...

 

Tell that to all the House bills that sat on Dirty Harry's desk, never to be voted on in the Senate.

 

Except the Democrats were playing by the rules. The rules are that anyone can filibuster.

What the GOP is doing is declaring that they don't want to face the opponent's starting pitcher, so they want to not play the game at all until next year after the pitcher becomes a free agent and they hope he doesn't re-sign with the opponent.

(Don't blame me for the baseball analogy. I didn't start it.)

 

If there is a better example of dumbfuckery I certainly haven't seen it.
