McConnell should have had the decency to let the sun set on the guy at least.

So how would this no-recess idea work? Wouldn't a bunch of Republicans have to stay in town over Christmas, to keep the Democrats from adjourning the session?

Scalia was someone who basically believed the clock should have stopped sometime between the ratification of the Constitution and the adoption of the Bill of Rights. The future belongs to those that will live in it and not serving as a museum of the past.
