ACTIVIST JUDGE: SCALIA!! He is consistantly on the wrong side of history.

 If the Supreme Court announces a controversial ruling on a case brought before that body, you can count on Justice Antonin Scalia to consistently be on the wrong side of history.  He was wrong about Gore v Bush, he was wrong about Citizens United, and in the past couple of days he's been wrong on affirmative action and the repeal of vital sections of the Voting Rights Act, and yesterday he had a shit-fit of a dissent over the Court's decision to invalidate the Defense of Marriage Act in favor of gay marriage.

...(His dissent on DOMA failing) Yesterday's ruling on gay marriage rights is a perfect example of why Scalia will go down in history as one of America's worst Supreme Court Justices. 

 Antonin Scalia is a perfect example of what an activist jurist looks like.  He twists and contorts his version of the Constitution to suit whatever conservative cause is at risk, and refuses to see himself as a partisan hack.
