It's time the American people fired the man who stuck us with Bush.
Bush v Gore and Bush's war on the Constitution were supported by Scalia!
Scalia was the guest of a Kansas law school and went hunting on a trip arranged by the school's dean, all within weeks of hearing two cases in which the dean was a lead attorney. The University of Kansas, a state school, paid for Scalia's flight, meals and lodging.
The cases involved issues of public policy important to Kansas officials. Accompanying Scalia on the November 2001 hunting trip were the Kansas governor and the recently retired state Senate president, who flew with Scalia to the hunting camp aboard a state plane.
Two weeks after hosting Scalia, the law school dean was back in Washington to argue on behalf of Kansas in a case called McKune vs. Lile. That case tested whether Kansas could force sex offenders to confess all their past sex crimes as part of prison treatment.
Robert Lile, an inmate, argued that the state policy would force him to incriminate himself. A federal district court and appeals court agreed, and Kansas was asking the high court to overturn those rulings.
During the oral argument, Scalia questioned whether the inmate had a constitutional basis for his complaint. "Your client had been deprived of no liberty to which he was entitled, not a single liberty to which he was entitled," he told Lile's lawyer, Matthew J. Wiltanger.
The Supreme Court sided with Kansas in both cases, with Scalia voting on McAllister's side each time.
In January 2002, the high court said in a 7-2 ruling in Kansas vs. Crane that state officials could hold sex criminals beyond their prison terms if they prove the convicts had a "serious difficulty" in controlling their behavior.
Scalia and Thomas are thought to be members of the arch-reactionary secret Catholic society, OPUS DEI. Am I alone in thinking that this is wildly inappropriate and a cause for impeachment?
It's time to impeach Scalia!
