Default Conservative Justice Antonius Scalia Dies; Conservatives Will Try To Obstruct

Current Supreme Court:

Antonin Scalia | appointed by Ronald Reagan | died at age: 79 - CONSERVATIVE
John Roberts | appointed by George W. Bush | current age: 61 - CONSERVATIVE
Anthony Kennedy | appointed by Ronald Reagan | current age: 79 - CONSERVATIVE / MODERATE
Clarence Thomas | appointed by George H. W. Bush | current age: 67 - CONSERVATIVE
Ruth Bader Ginsburg | appointed by Bill Clinton | current age: 82 - LIBERAL
Stephen Breyer | appointed by Bill Clinton | current age: 77 - LIBERAL
Samuel Alito | appointed by George W. Bush | current age: 65 - CONSERVATIVE
Sonia Sotomayor | appointed by Barack Obama | current age: 61 - LIBERAL
Elena Kagan | appointed by Barack Obama | current age: 55 - LIBERAL

Standings now after Scalia has died:
Conservative: 4
Liberal: 4

Congress would need to completely obstruct appointment for nearly a year. The average time for appointment in modern times is roughly 2-3 months. Obama has 342 days left in office.

Even if Republicans in Congress manage to obstruct democracy for that long, their chance of winning the White House this November is bleak.

Conclusion: Conservatives are about to eat shit and die, and we're finally going to start seeing some decent Supreme Court decisions.

Hah yeah like forced vaccinations tainted with mercury. Oh heck, soylent green distribution. Not sure how this spells kaput for a conservative election win, only libs would be outraged by it, and well they stick to party lines most times. Oh noz! This means conservative ticket won't be voted on by libs!!! aaaahh!! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Obstruction sounds good to me, awesome when gov cant function and does nothing, that's a win win for any freedom loving citizen.

Your hyper-secularist socialist state just might come into being.

Nah, DNC is demoralizing the base right now with all that superdelegate BS. People waking up to just how corrupt they are. Not even counting the damage 0bama has done to the party. Gonna take a lot of free cellphones to bring out enough voters to fend against the hoards of pissed off conservatives, moderates and independents flooding the polling sites. Dems didn't lose the house and senate for no reason... and Reps standing up to resist even to obstruct is what is wanted by most supporters.

Scalia was disingenuous and rude to his fellow Justices - I'm glad he's off the court. Later nerd.
