Mikaela asks:
Apparently Scalia does not take the whole climate change post-Abrahmoff very seriously. Did he not get the memo? Special interest payoffs: BAD.
Via Sirotablog:
In a blockbuster exclusive, ABC News reports :
"At the historic swearing-in of John Roberts as the 17th chief justice of the United States last September, every member of the Supreme Court, except Antonin Scalia, was in attendance. ABC News has learned that Scalia instead was on the tennis court at one of the country's top resorts, the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Bachelor Gulch, Colo., during a trip to a legal seminar sponsored by the Federalist Society. Not only did Scalia's absence appear to be a snub of the new chief justice, but according to some legal ethics experts, it also raised questions about the propriety of what critics call judicial junkets."
Scalia publicly refused to tell the press where he was when he missed the swearing in. But ABC News has video of Scalia playing tennis and loafing around at a vacation paid for by the right-wing special interest group.
