Rachel Maddow called A. Scalia a troll last night and I concur.

“It’s weird to see Antonin Scalia in person,” Maddow told Jon Stewart. “He’s a troll. He’s saying this for effect. He knows it’s offensive, and he knows he’s going to get a gasp from the courtroom which he got. And he loves it. He’s like the guy in your blog comment thread who’s using the n-word. … He’s that kind of guy.”

1. i love Rachel's intellect

[winter is coming]

15. And her unapologetic candor.

2. It was a very interesting interview.

Her description of how he just likes to be offensive made a lot of sense. Just the kind of guy we need in SCOTUS

4. So he's like Seth McFarlane but not at all funny. It's an astute observation & points to a sophomori

personality. Arrested development.

[MuseRider]

5. Clarence Thomas must think he is a riot.

So perfect he is rendered speechless constantly. So we have arrested development and just damned dumb. What a world.

6. Beavis & Butthead on the Supreme Court.

9. Oh how I wish I could laugh at that

but it is pretty close to what I imagine the truth to be. I will smile, snicker a little and understand their decisions a little better now. Weep for SCOTUS. Can you imagine what it must be like to have to deal with these guys?

3. I think he's losing it.

He used to know to keep his mouth shut Edit: in public.

[rhett o rick]

14. Not sure what ever he could have had to lose.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

7. I think she nailed him perfectly --

It's an embarrassment that he's on our highest bench.

[iandhr]

8. Look how excited she was to be there.

[WillyT]

10. K & R !!!

[napkinz]

11. he can't help it, he has a "condition" called ...

[dreamnightwind]

12. It was funny but I found it inaccurate

Trolls are more like terrorists, bomb throwers. Definitely outsiders.

Scalia is one of the most powerful men in this country, which makes him one of the most powerful men in the world.

He's the alpha jerk that always seems to end up running things, to the detriment of all. He's the living example of how we humans have yet to evolve to select leaders who are right-hearted, right-minded, and considerate, instead of leaders who are alpha-dogs that know how to control conversation and debate through arrogance and hubris. He's intelligence that isn't grounded by wisdom or checked by heart.

Mostly, he's the big chunk that rises to the top of the septic tank.

13. Seems right..

[spanone]

16. he's a despicable pos
