I pray for Scalia often. He’s the only common-sense Conservative on the bench anymore.
“Truth to Power.”
Gotta love Scalia.
Sure looks like a message, to all those who have eyes to see.
Well how about that! Props to Justice Scalia.

No question it was a protest...the hat was given him by a Thomas More society
and I’m not even Catholic to know that
I named my last Rott Beckett
and plan to name my one soon coming the same
There are three branches of government: Executive, Judicial and Legislative.
If the Executive is tearing down our Constitution, why are the two other branches quiet and not doing something about it?
There seems to be a dictatorship by consent.
?? Renaissance era HUMANIST, not painter. "Sir Thomas More (/ˈmɔr/; 7 February 1478 – 6 July 1535), known to Catholics as Saint Thomas More since 1935,[1][2] was an English lawyer, social philosopher, author, statesman, and noted Renaissance humanist. He was an important councillor to Henry VIII of England and was Lord Chancellor from October 1529 to 16 May 1532.[3] He was canonized by Pope Pius XI in 1935 as one of the early martyrs of the schism that separated the English Church from Catholicism in the 16th century. In 2000, Pope John Paul II declared him Patron of Catholic Statesmen and Politicians."
More was charged with Misprision of Treason after refusing to state an oath after the Act of Succession proclaiming King Henry VII and Anne Boelyn as legitimate heirs to the throne. It contained a clause repudiating any foreign authority, prince or potentate.
Scalia: "Hmmph. I'll bet the dumba** doesn't even know who Sir Thomas More is."
That would make Obama Henry VIII.
Only instead of seven wives, he probably has seven boyfriends behind the scenes in the White House.
And instead of standing for divorce, he stands for gay marriage, as he explained in his inaugural address.
Would that we had someone of Scalia’s caliber who was not limited to silent protests by his position on the highest court in the land. Perhaps Scalia could take on a protege, like maybe Marco Rubio, and guide his thinking and encourage him to lead in a way that will protect the ideals that this country was founded on.
It was a cold day.
What's he going to do to bring the broken-man Roberts back into line?

If the hat keeps him healthy, that’s all I care about.
