RIP, Justice Antonin Scalia.

Let the shenanigans begin. Obama will appoint someone. The Senate will not confirm while he's President. He'll have an interim Justice ready to appoint when the Senate is out of session. The GOP will figure out a way to always be in session. Who breaks ties in the SCOTUS?  I guess the lower court ruling that was appealed to the SCOTUS would still stand... never was too excited about my con law classes.

Wow, big news! While I often didn't agree with his conclusions, I respected the hell out of Scalia for his intellect. RIP

Jeez.  What a way to go.

Same thing happened to a guy whose music I used to listen to - Michael Hedges - in 1997.  Car went off on road and down 120 feet into a ravine in Mendocino.  Took them several days to find him.
