... entirely decided by Roosevelt appointed Judges.

There was still one Hoover appointment on the bench at that time, Owen Roberts. He joined the others in a unanimous decision.

You are correct. I stand corrected. I had actually made a point to look up all the judges for Wickard and find out who appointed them, but apparently I missed that one somehow.

The Point remains. Roosevelt appointed judges went on to do some seriously deranged judicial activism.

Looking at Owen Roberts, it appears he was an unprincipled swing vote, much like David Souter.
