John Oliver Tears Apart Scalia Over Gay Marriage

[pokerfan]

John Oliver used tonight’s Daily Show to round up the most outlandish negative reactions to the Supreme Court decisions on gay marriage. He noted how Anthony Kennedy was the deciding vote, and then got around to mocking Antonin Scalia, “the justice whose name most resembles a GI Joe villain,” for his bizarre, ranting dissent from the majority opinion.

Oliver mocked Scalia’s usage of the phrase “legalistic argle-bargle,” which could mean that either Scalia is angry, “choking on a pen top,” or just delivered his ruling while scuba diving.

Oliver then turned to Republican objections to the Supreme Court’s ruling, with some of them denouncing this “effective oligarchy of five.” Oliver explained that the Supreme Court is there to rectify the nation’s bad decisions, saying to the drunk voters, “Give us your keys, you’re really going to regret segregating schools tomorrow!”
