Liberalism, controlled by mocking and shame if you stray from its tight borders, is seen as normal by a whole generation of people. Why? Because they control the mass media.
I myself grew up thinking liberal = normal until I got some sense. I thought the NEWS was the truth.
Here, Scalia is defending freedom within sovereign borders and this WaPo idiot is defending — the liberals’ desire to trick more people into keeping them in power. Nothing more. That is what “immigration reform” is. They finally got through generations of family values to fool Latinos.
Is there nothing these people won’t do to protect their corrupt president?
“Not content with issuing a fiery written dissent, Scalia offered a bench statement questioning President Obama’s decision to allow some immigrants who were brought to the United States illegally as children to stay. Obama’s move had nothing to do with the case in question. Scalia just wanted you to know where he stood.”
Why shouldn’t he question Obama’s refusal to enforce immigration law particular on this case. Is it not the very essence of the case that if Arizona could fully enforce Federal immigration law that Obama’s refusal to enforce federal immigration law would become irrelevant?
I can’t think of anything more appropriate to bring up, as Obama’s actions are indeed at the very heart of the dispute for both sides.
EJ Dionne and the rest of the messedupnbc “corpse” must give themselves a swirly in a post-chili-dog exodus toilet.
I wonder what Dionne’s response would be if Scalia called on him to resign?
Dionne ought get back on his meds.
This is the best reason for Scalia eing on the court, Just to PO Dionne.

Yeah, one can never tell how Kagan, Breyer, Ginsburg or The Wise Latina will ever vote on any issue, huh EJ?
These affirmative action Jacksons don’t have an original thought, are poor excuses for the highest court in the land and are the worst appointments ever. What a disgrace they always vote in a bloc, never thinking for themselves. Same ol same ol with these losers.
I guess even Justice Scalia doesn’t have freedom of speech, eh, E.J.?
Where in hell did he get a crazy idea like that?............
LMFAO! Boy, that’s a real knee slapper, E.J., you should be a ****ing comedian.
So Scalia commenting on how things are, or are not, Constitutional is considered being a politician? He was chosen for the Supremes because he’s a smart man, who actually THINKS about the Constitutionality of laws. I can’t see why on earth that would be a problem, but then, I don’t look at life through a radical liberal lens.
The left, as represented in this case by EJ Dionne, want to preempt the inevitable decision by SCOTUS to overturn all or part of 0bamacare by personalizing its attacks on the Justices and their principled interpretations of the law. Whatever Justice Scalia says is far more interesting and correct in its interpretation of the Constitution than any noise from EJ Dionne. What a loser.
Although I agree with what Scalia said, I “concur” with Dionne partially. I worry that Scalia’s mouthing off about current events may result in his having to recuse himself in a forthcoming case about immigration.
I am so angry at this write up in the Washington Post. I tried to put my comment in, but their system is having problems and won’t let me post.
Grrr... I want to post!
Since I can’t - here it is!
I think you have a problem! The President took an oath of office that was to protect and defend its citizens. He has become a President that decides which laws he will and will not obey. If you have a President that can just say we will ignore illegal entry into our country and then also give them preferential treatment, then you are breaking the law. If you agree with him, then you are an idiot!
Immigrants (legal) should be given preferential treatment. Illegal - no matter how they got here, should not be brought to the front of the line. Especially when you are talking about 800,000 to 1.3 million people. This is not fair to those legal immigrants that have waited to become citizens. Once these legal immigrants become citizens, then they have the right to bring their family here as well to begin the process of citizenship.
Our President has decided to break the law and grant people who illegally cross more rights than it’s own citizens which should be condemned. I agree with Justice Scalia in his anger towards this corrupt government! E.J. Dionne Jr. you should be ashamed at yourself for going after a man who has the integrity to state it how it is.
EJ Dionne needs to go play in rush hour traffic.
Neither did the grounds Kagan and company used in their ruling. They are on common ground there.
