Justice Scalia On The Record

Though Stahl gets her opinion in her interview of Justice Scalia reminds me how much respect I have for him.

“When I first came on the court I thought I would for sure get off as soon as I could which would have been when I turned 65. Because you know, justices retire at full salary. So there’s no reason not to leave and go off and do something else. So you know, essentially I’ve been working for free, which probably means I’m too stupid to be on the Supreme Court,” Scalia says, laughing. “You should get somebody with more sense. But I cannot - what happened is, simply I cannot think of what I would do for an encore. I can’t think of any other job that I would find as interesting and as satisfying.”
