First of all, please do not use epithets to make your point, especially not ones referring to sexual orientation. This will typically get you banned. I'll not ban you, since I'm the target. You may think me stupid, but please find a more appropriate way of saying so than name-calling.

My point was that Rehnquist was an ultra-conservative, who will be replaced by another ultra-conservative. That is why his death will not impact the balance of the court, or the direction it has taken. It is possible that a conservative will change his/her views (which has been known to happen before) once appointed, but the bottom line here is that the way the Supremes vote on critical issues is unlikely to change.
