Issa is grasping at straws. This, too, will amount to nothing like what you wish.

I happen to believe that Antonin Scalia is one of the most disgusting scumbags in this country, but I'm gonna have to side with him on this one. I agree with the decision but the rationale written by Alito, a pretty dim bulb in my view, is absurd.
