[DOC]

He maybe good for the country but colorado is a little bit weaker because of it.

Liberal heads rolling....

Not necessarily. He was a federal judge. His replacement will be appointed by Trump, too. And if he sticks to his model, it should be a good pick.

All the "experts" are pretty much saying this is Scalia 2.0. Outstanding.

Even better, countless liberal heads are exploding all over the country tonight.

My gut tells me that Scalia was assasinated specifically to allow shitface to replace him and further skew the SC before leaving (which is why details of that don't make sense, no autopsy for a powerful gov official, etc.), and that is also why the fuktards are freaking out and claiming that the seat was "stolen"....

I hope the President opens a new investigation into that whole mess, my guess is quite a few people (including several loudmouth senators) would likely be spending their remaining days in a cell).

Also hoping that they nuke the fillibuster for this, drop a few more conservative justices in place over the next few years, then change the rules back to allow full the full fillibuster once that's done...

That's crazy talk. People die with a pillow over their face all the time.

^^^This, somewhat, DW beat me to the punch...hold on while I don my triple-layer tinfoil toque.

While reading through this thread this morning, I was wondering just how much political capital the progressive left had invested/expended to "hasten the demise" of the Honorable Justice Scalia (if we are to entertain such theories), and how scathing this appointment must be to their tender sensibilities, since they couldn't install another of their ilk in his place, and have now lost the presidency and the opportunity to do so. If this is/were to be the case, I would hope that reputations and futures were put on the line, and will be duly slapped down for the failure to produce.

While much of the unwitting lefty commoners are screeching over the pick, I would hope there are individuals in the upper echelons of the left that are downright terrified.

I'm sure the Dems are just saying to themselves how easy it would be to just start rounding up their enemies and throwing them into a prison or just killing them outright.... Then they will have no opposition to creating a utopia that they always read about in college. But they are stopped short of climaxing to their Karl Marx book when they are reminded that the poor unwashed masses still keep and bear arms and their armies are well equipped but still lack the numbers needed to take on all of the country. Their most loyal idiots would get wiped out pretty quick and the less useful idiots would lose the will to fight. Leaving them to hold the bag for a failed fundamental transformation of the country into a despot dictatorship. They must be really insane to even want to run everyone's lives like that let alone think it would work. It hasn't before and it has been tried to death.

ETA: Hows that for tinfoil hat time? But the left isn't stupid just evil and they might have killed Scalia for no other reason then to protect Obamacare.

[CO Hugh]

I saw him speak Friday at a Federalist event, no questions though. It was very good, he tied legal ethics to the Fugitive Slave Act, ie how much would you object to the act.

Any chance Bennet will vote for him, being a fellow Coloradan?

Or is being a Democrat more powerful than being from the same state.

Depends on what he is told to do. A muppet like Bennet doesn't think for himself.
