AND THAT’S WHAT I WEAR UNDER MY ROBE.

“You wanna talk about Bush versus Gore. I perceive that,” he replied. “I and my court owe no apology whatever for Bush versus Gore. We did the right thing. So there!”

“People say that that decision was not based on judicial philosophy but on politics,” Stahl asks.

“I say nonsense,” Scalia says.

Was it political?

“Gee, I really don’t wanna get into - I mean this is - get over it.”

(Justice Antonin Scalia and Leslie Stahl on “60 Minutes” – April 27, 2008)

Get over it?

Get over it!?

That’s the best the Harvard educated and putative sharpest mind on the Supreme Court could come up with.

Sure, screw everybody. Give ‘em the ol’ Cheney. (Hey, you think the simp Scalia got his catch phrase while sitting in that duck blind with the Dark Lord, “not discussing” the upcoming Supreme Court case involving Cheney and the energy task force?)

All addlebrained Antonin did was lead the charge that spit in the eye of 211 years of presidential elections and installed the loser of ’00 campaign (go count the votes again if you think it’s changed) in the White House, ergo having an active hand in helping the idiot in charge push America over a cliff.

Things sure have gone well since you changed history, Justice jerkwad. Just ask your limo driver how much it costs him to get to work and feed his family, and when he answers, tell him to “Get over it.”

So that’s what you learned in almost fifty years in the law, “Get over it.”

Is that a John Marshall argument or was it Oliver Wendell Holmes?

Well, it’s clever and it has universal appeal. Anytime anyone screws with the human race just bust out the old, “Get over it?”

Let’s try it out.

Pontius Pilate: “Get over it.”

Attila the Hun: “Get over it.”

Idi Amin: “Get over it.”

Josef Stalin: “Get over it.”

Pol Pot: “Get over it.”

Adolph Hitler: “Get over it.”

I like it!

If only Saddam Hussein had shouted “Get over it” when they found him hiding in that hole…he’d have a house in Cabo now, right on the beach, maybe even be fishing buddies with that nitwit ‘Nino’ Scalia.
