Anton Scalia's Id--Coming Out of the Closet


It's a Sicilian thing. Lucky no one but Fat Anton speaks-a-da Sicilian. Oh wait. No, everyone understands that kind of language.
A Herald reporter asked the justice how he responds to critics who might question his impartiality as a judge given his public worship.

The judge paused for a second, then looked directly into my lens and said, "To my critics, I say,'Vaffanculo!'" punctuating the comment by flicking his right hand out from under his chin, Smith said.

The Italian phrase means "(expletive) you." Then the judge said, "Don't publish that!"
Say, can you say--consciousness of guilt?

CANON 2

A JUDGE SHALL AVOID IMPROPRIETY AND THE APPEARANCE OF IMPROPRIETY IN ALL OF THE JUDGE’S ACTIVITIES

Update: The Catholic Church's newsletter, The Pilot, fired the freelance photographer who let the picture become public. Covering up for pedophile priests, covering up for Scalia's obscenity--what would Jesus think?

Wait till Fat Anton he starts giving elderly guys he hunts with a kiss on both cheeks. Worthington will feel like a lucky man.
