Context: this gesture was made inside a cathedral by a Supreme Court Justice who's very concerned about 'traditional values.'

Had Scalia not repeatedly lied about this event I doubt the photo would ever have been published.

Technorati has lotsa results on Scalia's 'gesture.'

Pam's House Blend has more too.

Melanie Chuck says, "oh, so this is Christian justice!" Not really, but still.

Predictably, Ann Althouse thinks it's all "hilarious." No, really, she does.

Finally, Memeorandum has a roundup.
