Your hypothetical aside. Don't take cheap pot shots at Reagan for Sandra Day O’Conner. At least not without revealing all the facts surrounding Reagan's decision to appoint her. Besides, no President can be assured of how any SCOTUS pick will turn out years down the road.

I recently purchased a copy of The Notes: Ronald Reagan, and one of his notes was the below quote from Thomas Jefferson.

“The germ of dissolution of our federal government is in the constitution of the federal judiciary; an irresponsible body, working like gravity by night and by day, gaining a little to-day and a little to-morrow, and advancing its noiseless step like a thief, over the field of jurisdiction, until all shall be usurped from the States, and the government of all be consolidated into one.”

No one is taking a cheap shot. He knew what he was getting. Sandra Day O’Connor, when she was being considered for the SC, refused to say what her position was on abortion. My personal opinion is that she was Nancy’s pick. There are no perfect presidents. He also did nothing when our Marines and the embassy were blown up in Lebanon. I voted for him twice. He was a pretty good President, especially when you consider the New World Order scoundrels that followed.
