Thank your side for those poor judicial appointments to the SCOTUS.
Seven
of the nine are *Republican* appointments.


Roberts had to recuse himself from the case involving eminent domain,
because he was the judge who originally ruled for the guy trying to keep
his home. Had he heard the case, the outcome would have been different.

BTW--47% of active Federal judges were appointed by Clinton.


Clinton appointed 341 federal judges.

Following data as of October, 2004:

Of the 849 total active federal judges, 201 have been appointed by the
current president, and 262 were appointed by former Republican presidents
going back to Nixon. In total, 55 percent are Republican appointees. The
remaining 45 percent were appointed by Democratic presidents stretching back
to Lyndon Johnson.
