Of course. But not more and no less than, for example, Hillary (or Bill) would have done, by nominating some cookie-cutter lefty. So I don't think this is where the real difference is--just the standard shit taco we were resigned to.
Yeah, but good ole Jerry was in a very weak position after Watergate. And, of course, J-P started as a mavericky moderate, and then moved steadily left from there, once on the Supreme Court. Sort of like Souter, but even more. Happened to a couple of Reagan appointees, too -- O'Connor and Kennedy -- but they just moved from center-right to center, or slightly center-left. Never seen a lefty appointee move ever so slightly to the right, though. Never happens.

As expected, Obama will have a chance to screw up the country some more.

Actually, J-P Stevens was a Ford appointee.

Good points. Soon Scalia will be wearing Birkenstocks.
Not what I said. Rot, Rot, when are you gonna learn that (A=>B) is not the same as ((not A)=>(not B))? Aristotelian logic is hard to grasp...
You're just too conservative with your logic, Tecs. You need to loosen up and relax. Probably the trouble is that you're racist or something.
Certainly, Aristotle and Descartes are DWMs. Ergo.
QED. Generalized logic works too.
