[signalmankenneth]

For those of you who don't want more justices like Scalia and Thomas on the high court, make sure Trump is not elected president!

If you want justices who ignore the constitution, vote donkey

If you want judges that re-write the Constitution -vote donks.

Scalia redefined the murkiness of "Original Intent" to the clarity of 'textualism' -that is a YUGE accomplishment..
It's a new philosophy by stripping out the guesswork

"Living Document" is just making stuff up.

Faggot OP. How about you hit the reply button, instead of just groaning and running.

Would there be any bitching from the left if the court was loaded with liberals to dismantle the constitution? What? Does the reality of facing something like the ROOSEVELT COURT scare the hell out you communists? Afraid of what real constitutional judges might do with the communist precedents over the past 80 years?

I never hear any liberal bitch about the historical reality of a packed Roosevelt court...hell he was doing so good he actually wanted to seat several more liberals on the court, he demanded 15 judges be on the court....ever hear of the " switch in time saves 9", or The court packing reform bill of 1937? Now its priceless to hear the communists bitching about others wanting to pack the court.

Nothing is beneath a communist agenda.

"Living Document" is just making stuff up.

They need to make stuff up because they consider the document an impediment to their conception of rights.

Obama has said as much.

Which is why I don't get the #NeverTrumpRumpers. In a sense, much of what they fret over about Trump is trivial compared to what Hillary has in mind with SCOTUS. The damage either of them can do in four years can be undone---possibly as soon as the next midterm election.

But two or three lifetime appointments on the Court would be a game changer. Of course, since liberals are unable to get so much of their agenda approved by Congress, they rightly drool over the prospect of loading the court with leftist ideologues who will vote in lock step in approving the latest cultural fad.

If Hillary wins, for people who respect the document as it was written, their only hope will be that the new liberal appointees will at least try and play the role of a Scalia. And there's always a chance an appointee could turn out to be not so liberal once they get on the bench.

SCOTUS was never intended to be an echo chamber for either side.
