Scalia Goes On Abortion Bender After Being Passed Over For Chief Justice
http://www.theonion.com/content/node/40767

NORFOLK, VA—Saying "Fuck this shit, I'm stopping beating hearts with my bare hands," Justice Antonin Scalia, overlooked for the vacated position of Supreme Court chief justice, went on a spiteful abortion-performing bender over the weekend. "If I'm not going to be permitted a lasting judicial legacy, to hell with law and order," said Scalia, the conservative Reagan appointee who has served on the court since 1986. "I worked my ass off for 20 years, and no one cares. So, who gives a shit? Safe, legal abortions for all. Who wants one?" Scalia added that 2000 presidential candidate Al Gore "totally won that election, any idiot knows that."

1. Hello there, my dear ET Awful......
I've just finished reading this piece...and I'm wondering if it is for real?

Did Scalia really say all this? Are there any other places where this shows up?

If he really said what is purported here, then this is dynamite...

And it should be listened to, IMHO.....

2. It's from The Onion.
It's satire, not real.

(How are you doing these days, Miss Peggy?)
