Bush the presidency so yes he did in effect hand the presidency to Bush. Talk about your judicial activism. This is the same bastard who also bemoans "the tendency of democracy to obscure the divine authority behind government" which "derives its moral authority from God" and is the "minister of God" with powers of "revenge" and to "execute wrath."<br /> If that doesn't chill you then nothing will. Welcome to the brave new world envisioned in "The Handmaid's Tale". <br /> Alex.<br /> <br /> jcc,

He completely rejected his entire judicial philosophy when he stopped the constitutionally mandated democratic counting of ballots in the 2000 election and intentionally appointed the person who later gave a job to his son and to Rehnquist's daugther.<br /> <br /> After that case, I can not for the life of me understand why anyone would pay any attention to what this immoral, unethical, corrupt, cheap suit politician has to say on any issue but especially on judicial ethics. “He said that, according to his judicial philosophy, there can be no room for personal, political or religious beliefs.” from the Washington Times about Scalia’s comments before the Federalist Society in PR.
