Scalia demonstrates he is unfit to serve

The lawyer for Planned Parenthood – fighting to declare the law unconstitutional – said requiring doctors to go to a judge would delay medical treatment, which could jeopardize a pregnant minor’s health, including “stroke and even infertility.”
Justice Scalia was unimpressed with that argument, saying it “takes 30 seconds to make a phone call” to a judge before performing an abortion.

Justice Scalia is simply a fool. Just that.
In commenting on the possible requirement to consult a judge on an emergency abortion case, Scalia suggests that it would only take 30 seconds to make a phone call. And that is true, but this supreme court justice fails to consider the sequence of events that must immediately follow, and that is the conversation and the details of the case in progress upon which the judge, assuming she is asked to render a decision, MUST insist on knowing in great detail before rendering a decision.
This kind of lapse in judgement by Scalia, a supreme court justice is so flippant and so eggregious as to render him unfit for office.
