Loony tunes. First, a death is a death. He wasn’t more important.

Second of all, they wanted him out of the way you say. For what? If they were THAT worried about stacking the court, you think nobody would have approached Ginsberg and asked her to retire?
So your brilliant plan is that an assassination team moves into a county of 5 people where headlights are seen 15 miles away, kills Scalia at a hunting ranch. And all this is done so Obama gets a chance to TRY to get an election year appointment through?

Sounds like a stupid plan. And sounds like you might not have spent much time in west Texas on a ranch as a guest. That’s about the last place you’d want to try to assassinate someone.

Why are you putting out a stupid scenario? If he was murdered, it wasn’t by an assignation team.

An autopsy is used to determine the cause of death and rule out foul play. In this case, the justices contacted weren’t even told that it was Justice Scalia.

The death of most citizens does not have national implications. The death of a Justice of the Supreme Court does have national implications.

I remember the drive from Ft. Bliss to Ft. Hood across west Texas. It proved the song, “There’s miles and miles and miles and miles of Texas” is very true. It was/is so desolate that I didn’t even pick up a radio station for a couple of hours.

Ginsburg is a liberal. Replacing her with a liberal would accomplish nothing.

Are you really this dense?

Replacing Ginsberg wouldn’t change the balance of the court. And yeah, Obama may still choose her replacement after next June when they end their session.
