30. He's really flustered.
He chastised some kid and told the kid his opinion was wrong. He really got messed up by it.

4. I really didnt understand the question but...
he said something like Do you have a question or do you want to throw insults?

The guy continued his question and he had his mic snatched away.

5. He recieved two questions up from he didnt like so he said
"Are all the bad guys up front and the good guys in the back?"

Scalia has lost his mind he opened himself up to Q&A and now he doesnt want to answer questions he doesnt like.

25. Scalia was giving a talk on the use of foreign law in
making constitutional decisions (or something like that) and natural law - sorry missed most of it, just tuned in for the questions.

In any case he doesn't like many of the questions he's being asked and is being quite an ass about it. No wonder why he doesn't like any of his speeches taped.

Who is the group he is talking (talking down) to?

recommendation.

A negative one, if you will, just for the frustrating lack of context and information.

What a jerk. He is a moral relativist.

The "I'm right and you are obviously wrong" attitude has to jump through quite a few hoops for him to maintain that.

40. that's what he truly believes
the rights of the majority always determine the rights of the minority - a direct 180 from the constitutional fathers.

Unless of course the majority are pro-choice or non-Christian.

63. Did he talk about how much he enjoys orgies, again?
Scalia is a scream. Everytime he talks in public he says something weirdly inappropriate.

I wonder if he's doing this to pull peoples chains or whether he's just twisted, through and through.

He will vote to protect American's Constitutional rights to have group sex, though.

67. Why he do not wear neat black dress
to these events. He look really imposing in black dress and he can play with himself too.

(What goes on under those robes? My innocent wife asks one time.) Sure enough her question been answered several times.

How can people like The Honorable Judge cultivate respect when showing off arrogance by demonstrating I do not care about your question because I do not care what you think.

Will you go quail hunting with Cheney? priceless.
