Excellent news! Justice Scalia is an "originalist," meaning that he interprets the U.S. Constitution as it was understood by Our Founders.
It's just a shame that the constitution has been shredded to such an extent by the communist progressives in schools and government that it actually had to come to this:
Congress to be schooled
By: CNN's Gabriella Schwarz
(CNN) - Constitutional 101 is coming to Congress by way of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia when he leads the first constitutional conservative seminar for members of Congress in late January.
Justice Scalia will lead the first session of the series created by Republican Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, according to Bachmann spokesman Doug Sachtleben.
He said the series is a response to conservative messages delivered during the midterm elections that called for the return to constitutional principles.
Go Tea Party!
The bi-monthly seminars are part of the Tea Party caucus - a group Bachmann helped launch - and will "bring up principles that are already familiar to the members," including the bill of rights and role of government, Sachtleben said.
Bachmann was an avid campaigner during the 2010 elections, enjoying the support of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and raising her national profile.
In an interview on Lou Dobbs' radio show, Bachmann compared the classes to sports practices.
"We're going to practice every week, if you will, our craft, which is studying and learning the Declaration, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights," Bachmann said. "We'll have a speaker, we'll have questions and answers, we'll wrap our minds around this magnificent document."
Kathy Arberg, the Supreme Court's public information officer confirmed Scalia accepted the invitation and said he will speak about "Separation of Powers."
