Shocking thing Scalia said about Ginsburg


Apr 16, 2015, 9:45 AM

That's the MSNBC headline. Here's what he said:

“Having had the good fortune to serve beside her on both courts, I can attest that her opinions are always thoroughly considered, always carefully crafted and almost always correct (which is to say we sometimes disagree). That much is apparent for all to see.”

Here's EVERYTHING he said...since I thought I must have missed something:

"Ruth Bader Ginsburg has had two distinguished legal careers, either one of which would alone entitle her to be one of TIME’s 100. When she was a law professor at Rutgers and later Columbia, she became the leading (and very successful) litigator on behalf of women’s rights—the Thurgood Marshall of that cause, so to speak. President Carter appointed her to a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit in 1980, and President Clinton to a seat on the Supreme Court in 1993.

Having had the good fortune to serve beside her on both courts, I can attest that her opinions are always thoroughly considered, always carefully crafted and almost always correct (which is to say we sometimes disagree). That much is apparent for all to see.

What only her colleagues know is that her suggestions improve the opinions the rest of us write, and that she is a source of collegiality and good judgment in all our work."




Still trying to figure out what is "shocking". I mean, he could have mentioned her getting drunk and falling asleep during the State of the Union speech. I was actually expecting something like that.

I'm about 99.99% certain MSNBC is fishing for a controversy here.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

I read just as many, if not more liberal rags than conservative articles. It would be too easy to just sit around and get one side of everything that I agree with. That's what liberals do, as well as some conservatives. Then you fail to see your enemy coming.

Way to take my Sun Tzu quote literally

Would it be more pedantic if I said "Keep those you agree with close, and those you disagree with closer"?

MSNBC is a click baiter?


Apr 16, 2015, 11:14 AM

Try every effin' source on the interwebs.

Every where I turn there is something shocking, or unbelievable, or someone has totally crushed some politico from one side or the other. I really like when some pundit "annihilates" someone or some idea.

...I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever in religion, in philosophy, in politics, or in anything else where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such an addiction is the last degradation of a free and moral agent.


It's shocking to them ppl who disagree respect eachother***
