A professor at the University of Colorado on Monday responded to the Supreme Court's landmark immigration ruling by dismissing Justice Antonin Scalia as a "ranting old man," in retribution for his conservative dissent.
Paul Campos, a professor of law at the University of Colorado - Boulder went on to suggest that "degeneracy" brought on by Scalia's old age, 65, had polluted his judgment.
"In his old age [he has] become an increasingly intolerant and intolerable blowhard: a pompous celebrant of his own virtue and rectitude, a purveyor of intemperate jeremiads against the degeneracy of the age, and now an author of hysterical diatribes against foreign invaders, who threaten all that is holy," wrote Campos in the op-ed published in the liberal web magazine Salon.com.

This Professor Campos must be pistol whipped with a Desert Eagle 50AE!
I do believe that we have discovered obama’s next pick for the supreme court if he wins another term.
“These college professors should have their salaries slashed !!!”

At the VERY least.
Easily half of them are wholly unnecessary, and their soft and comfortable, non-demanding positions should be permanently eliminated.
That would happen quite quickly if BigAcademia was subjected to even a modicum of the effficiency and rigor of the free market.
This egghead just reminded us why we’re not like them.
And that reminds me. Has anyone seen `Coriolanus’ the movie?
I had to see at after reading it was the only Shakespeare play banned in a democratic country (yep, France).
DVD, Redbox. Ralph Fiennes directed and starred.
Campos reminds me of one of the degenerate, democratic, looser tribunes.

major critiques of the political and normative orientation of current constitutional theory.
Wouldn’t want to be normative, no.
He sounds like the dandy that watches you build a house
and then tells you what you did wrong after you’re done.
Saints preserve us from any more like him.
Isn’t this the college where that faux Indian ranter used to teach? Remember the one who called the September 11 victims “nazis”.
“Anybody want to guess which Italian Hand Gesture is the proper response to this?”
The same one I would employ!
Is it me, or is Colorado going California leftist on us? Just seems like more and more they are one and the same....
Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach.
Sounds like Campos is the blowhard.
Nothing but name-calling and this professor makes what, $160,000 a year?
FUAW. You are an example of the evil POS’s that have infiltrated the campuses. Go to hell.
