I don’t know. You would think as folks mature they would become conservative and rational. Amazing how many “conservative” appointees spoil to the left.

Worthless swamp rats.

There is only 1 example of that - Byron White, appointed by JFK. The reason this does not happen more often is because of the neo-Marxism prevalent in our universities, which makes leftism the preordained inclination of almost all of academia.

To paraphrase Mark Twain: “I will not attend his funeral...but I will send a nice letter saying that I approve of it.”

Stevens, burn in hell you judicial prick!
