Townhall ^ | 9/29/2016 | Cortney O'Brien

It's been months since the passing of conservative Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, but Democrats are still seemingly celebrating his death because it paves the way for their political purposes.

And they wonder WHY many of us think that Scalia may have been murdered and that he did not die suddenly in his sleep.

This is what they discuss in progressive lawyer school. My guess is that if HRC wins, Obama will become a SC justice.

Well, it’s not like unions and mob hits have no prior history of being connected or anything.

“...Whether they WANT TO be unionized, or not... if you catch my drift”

Precisely.

Justice Scalia was far more important to us as conservatives than any president. I sincerely pray that as president Trump will honor us with 4 more justices somewhere near the Honorable Scalia's caliber.
