Well, now Sandra O'Conner is going to get to make so big damn decisions. Happy now?

Yes. I'd rather endure O'Connor for a few more months than get a lifetime appointment wrong.

Besides, O'Connor is the justice who wrote the scathing dissent in the property rights case. She is (by far) not wrong on every issue.

Moreover, were it not for Justice O'Connor, Bush might not have won the USSC decision in late 2000. Gore would have been President.

I've not always agreed with Justice O'Connor, but I believe she is an outstanding public servant and brilliant woman. I wish her health and happiness. My deepest regret in this delay is that she needs to get off the bench to assist her ailing husband.

Agreed, she is not nearly as bad as many make her out to be. She isn't the greatest, but she is no Breyer, Stevens or Ginsberg.

Well, by all means, let's keep her then.
