An aside: If you're cheering the death of someone solely on ideological grounds, you need some help. He has a family, kids, friends, etc. Scalia is a person, not a political prop, be respectful.
This. Even if it's just trolling... too much, guys.
Welcome to politics in 2016.
politics of forever really.
Yes, I was thinking that exactly. Let's dispel with the fiction that we have to pay respects to HPs once they're dead. We don't have to. I myself consider it an inalienable right to cheer at someone I find horrible's death. IIRC, this forum was pretty cheerful when Chavez died. I will always take the occasion to cheer as some right-wing horrible person's death, because the world just became a slightly better place.
Adequate that he apparently died shortly after having hunted innocent animals just one last time. Rot in Hell.
As for the consequences, I don't think there will be any serious ones. I think the consensus will soon be that Obama cannot get someone nominated before leaving office, and I'm not even sure he will try that hard. Plus people are moron, and I don't think we should expect them to understand anything about Scotus nominations and process.
