Quack-Quack Scalia a No-Show?

In 2004, Justice Antonin "Quack-Quack" Scalia went on a controversial duck hunting trip with Dickless Cheney, then refused to recuse himself from that infamous energy panel case involving Cheney.

Those of us who still believed in our constitutional republic were up in arms over the patent ethical violations and the obvious conflict of interest, but to no avail.

Well, now I'm not so sure. Now I think we'd like to see Scalia go on a hunting trip with Crashcart -- and take Scooter Libby along as the faithful native gun-bearer. Get Uncle Dickie torqued up on that series of potent pharmaceutical cocktails he takes daily for his multiple health problems, wash 'em down with a six-pack of high-test beers and see what happens.

Word has it, though, that Scalia will recuse himself from this hunting trip, citing a potential conflict of interest.

He wants to keep his face.
