"Nice Scalia quote in your tagline."

Hypocritical is a better word. Confused is even better.

Scalia believes in original meaning (what the terms meant when they were ratified) which stands in opposition to interpretivist theories like original intent.

What's funny is I found it reading a Scalia lecture. --- One of FR's majority rule devotees claimed that in it Scalia approved of majority rule.
