tomndebb, Scalia is an orginialist.

Scalia is an originalist and a textualist. You should try reading Scalia’s A Matter of Interpretation.

If that book is too difficult for you, Scalia makes his position very clear in this quote:

I await your retraction and apology.

edit - orginialist = originalist

He’s a motherfuckin’ originalist and a cocksuckin’ textualist, you fuckin’ low-down, pissed-up scumbag.

3

And I am the walrus, what sense did your post make???

4

I killed Jimmy Hoffa.

5

Thanks for finally making a topic in the pit. Now I can tell you what a fuckin’ douchebag I think you are and have been since you started posting.

6

FinnAgain didn’t kill Hoffa. I did.

Also, Scalia, the Zombies, JAWS from the 007 films, stinky, and that castle guy.

Yeah, like the last jet over your house was only cargo. We know, shitwads. We’re on it.

Shut up and cope, okay?

7

I am Spartacus!

8

Dude, he’s a troll. If you didn’t see it before, his thread about outlawing smoking in the streets was about as subtle as making an airhorn that blasts TROOOOOOOO-oooooooooooo-LLLLLLLLL.

9

Yeah, well I am Jimmy Hoffa, and you bastids ain’t never gonna catch me!

10

No, I’m Hoffa.

11

I’m Hoffer than you are. In fact, I’m the Hoffest one here.

12

Scalia is a politician and his opinions are tailored to his conservative beliefs. He can’t die soon enough.

13

Oh, I knew/figured. I just thought “fuckin’ douchebag” sounded more cutting.

14

I think you might be taking that quote out of context…

[QUOTE=Justice Scalia]
“You will never hear me refer to original intent, because as I say I am first of all a textualist, and secondly an originalist. If you are a textualist, you don’t care about the intent, and I don’t care if the framers of the Constitution had some secret meaning in mind when they adopted its words.”
[/QUOTE]

Now, the reason I don’t believe in textualism is that its adherents often stray into originalism, and deliberately imagine ambiguities in text where none exist, but Nino is, without a doubt, a textualist.

15

This guy disagrees.

16

Funny you should say that because I was all I am Spartacus but the at the last moment I thought maybe I’m not. And as it turns out I am not Spartacus

17

There seems to be something about newbies with French usernames. Not good.

18

I’m Hoffa and so’s my wife.

19

I wouldn’t hold my breath.

I wish you hadn’t said that. He was just turning all purple.
