Was wondering today how many Democrat picks turned out to be conservative.

Still wondering ...

Ginsburg was a radical leftist feminist ACLU lawyer when nominated.

Do you know how many Republicans voted against her?

Whizzer White was no originalist, but he was a fairly traditionalist justice who was more acceptable to conservatives than some of the Republican appointees who served with him.

Well written, cogent article. Not merely informative and useful, but timely.
Well done, and thank you for being literate.

My 10th grade English teacher, Mrs. Fischer would be approve and be proud of you. Mr Hoag, Civics, would be steaming because you’re right AND conservative.

If they all are original constructionists and interpret the constitution properly, in line with the founders intentioms, as per the federalist papers and other of their writings,

I would care less about their external wrappings and colors.

White was one of the more conservative members of the court by the time he retired, but he kept to tradition and waited for a Democrat president to replace him since a Democrat put him on the bench. (Not all justices can do this, for health reasons).

This contrasts with David Souter, who was put on the court by Bush 41, sailed leftward, and didn’t step down until Bush 43 left office so Obama could replace him. (Souter was, and still is, quite healthy,)

Interesting, sobering facts.

I had not realized this relationship: Ginsberg replaced a conservative, anti-abortion, constitutionalist, white male!
