Quote of the Day

"The death penalty? Give me a break. It's easy. Abortion? Absolutely easy. Nobody ever thought the Constitution prevented restrictions on abortion. Homosexual sodomy? Come on. For 200 years, it was criminal in every state."—Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, on how being a "textualist" interpreter of the Constitution makes "some of the most hotly disputed issues that come before the Supreme Court among the easiest to resolve" for him.

Sure. Sure it does.

What a d-bag.
