Idiots! Gosh!
If you believe the Constitution “has to change with society,” Scalia thinks you’re an idiot.
Now, I’m no legal scholar, but I thought the Constitution did change as society changed…you know, through…oh, what do you call 'em…oh, yeah: Amendments.
And apparently, Scalia doesn’t think civil rights are a federal issue:
"‘They are not looking for legal flexibility, they are looking for rigidity, whether it's the right to abortion or the right to homosexual activity, they want that right to be embedded from coast to coast and to be unchangeable.’”
Dude, language like that is so 1860! But, as the saying goes, everything old is new again. And with that in mind, here’s a little song for you, Antonin!

As long as the Union
Like friends and brethren, kind were we and
But now when
We hoist on high the Bonnie Blue flag that bears a single star.
Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah for
Three cheers for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star.

Then here’s to our Confederacy, strong we are and brave,
Like patriots of old we’ll fight, our heritage to save.
And rather than submit to shame, to
So cheer for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star.
