Dear Fred,

Thanks for your email.

I agree.

It is also true that the GOP is -- at bottom (and almost always) -- the impetuous, imprudent, inflammatory party.

Obama could have appointed Scalia's replacement as an "interim appointment" given that Congress is currently not in session.

Instead, he gave a sober speech emphasizing Scalia's long, dedicated service, simultaneously announcing that he would make his nomination after Congress had opportunity to reconvene.

Pax tecum

Both parties are acting with indecent haste to replace Scalia. We should mourn the dead and then renew the battle AFTER the funeral. I know McConnell started it, but then everyone else jumped in.....this is very disrespectful to Scalia's memory. During these few days you either say something nice or keep quiet.
