Me thinks Scalia doesn't like being in the 4 in a 5-4 decision.

All I can say is I cheered when Jim Baker went down to Florida and told it like it was. The Democrats were trying to steal the election by selective recounts. They lost and were trying to change the rules after the fact. Hillary tried to do the same thing to Obama 4 years later with the Florida primary, but the party refused her effort. Liberals believe the ends justifies the means.

I just wish the judges would follow the law instead of making stuff up and writing 100 pages of crap, detailing the tortured logic and mental gymnastics they used to justify their decision.

And yes, Scalia doesn't like being in the minority. Especially when the law says what it says and other justices decide to disregard it because they think it's more important to be "fair".
