NahnCee,

On the Court there seems to be two blocks. On one side, ideologically-speaking, is Antonin Scalia and his conservative instincts, backed up by the strict-constructionist Roberts. The other side is led by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the liberal-Left former ACLU bigwig. Kennedy, a Reagan appointee, has gone fully over to the liberal camp. Souter was a stealth liberal who got into the court because a former Senator from my state named Rudman advanced him to George H.W. Bush and from thence on to the bench. When Clinton appointed Ginsburg, everyone knew what they were getting. She never hid her views or her leanings. Kennedy clearly changed over the years. Souter deceived everyone.
