Just a little bit of old fashioned anti semitism?

He just doesn’t give a fuck about her because she’s a librul gurley type.

“Goldberg … Ginsberg … what’s the difference? Your people killed my savior. Everything else is just a detail. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m late for my self-flagellation session with my Opus Dei group.”

I know, I know. That’s unfair. But hey, so are his decisions.

Certainly not the first mistake he’s made, nor the biggest.

ehh the attention span of a cat.
At least my cat knows when it’s time to play the game right, as in the meow moment when it’s dinner time.

And Ruth replied, “That’s okay, Antonio. No? Oops. All the dago names sound alike.”

There is a new book out claiming that Queen Elizabeth couldn’t stand Margaret Thatcher, and used to mimic Thatcher to Commonwealth leaders. Elizabeth supposedly told this one. "Thatcher was visiting a nursing home and became upset that no one was paying her any attention. Thatcher imperiously demands of one of the residents, ‘Do you know who I am?!?!?!’ The resident looks up and replies ‘If you can’t remember, just ask the duty nurse.’ "

How much more proof do we need that this asshole isn’t all here anymore. He doesn’t even know the name of his BFF and opera buddy now? This isn’t some button down affair where you casually have a few drinks and pretend you’re schmoozing with the crowd. This is the fucking Supreme Court, and he’s there to do a serious-minded job, to be at his best, and fucking take in all things by paying close attention.

Holy shit. He’s a fucking embarrassment…always.

I think Scalia has been showing signs of possible brain health issues for some time now.

Scalia is a graduate of the Ronald Reagan School of Deliberative Thought.

Yep…there’s a distinct pattern that’s developed over time with Scalia. To ignore it is really wrong-headed (no pun intended). I believe if we got a physician who specializes in geriatrics to assess that asshole, we’d be truly facing a serious issue here worthy of examination concerning those brain functions.

Maybe Scalia was thinking “Goldberg 'n Osbourne…the injury lawyers” and not the woman who has occupied a seat on the SCOTUS bench since 1993. You would think Ol’ Antonin would know who his fellow Justices are by now. But of course Ruthie is a wimminz and so not a person of note to Mr Justice Scalia.
