(and just to expand on something from elsewhere.. I do not cheer that someone has died. I save that for people I consider truly EVIL (with a capital E). That's people like Osama Bin Laden, etcetera). Am I personally happy that Mr. Scalia will not be able to drag the court forever rightward with wrongheaded decisions? Of course. But I still hope he rests in peace.)

So much for Republicans respecting the Constitution.
