That this administration will get to appoint a SC justice sucks.

It was inevitable. Rehnquist will probably retire soon as well, but that won't matter much since he is already really conservative. The only question is whether Stevens can last another 3 years.

We can only hope Souter, Kennedy, and Ginsburg go too!!!!

Somebody needs to smack the smirk off the chimps face as he talks about nominating a replacement.

Lets hope Congress steps up and treats him like the lame duck he is.

Yeah, those Republicans in the Senate better stop him!

What, a democrat calling for obstruction? I'm shocked.

Goodbye, Sandra. Sometimes you did well. Other times you did not.

Let's hope your replacement does better.

Oh man this is going to be so sweet. Liberals will complain about needing to replace a moderate with a moderate but GWB will come through with a Scalia/Thomas. There will be a huge battle which the democrates will lose. What an awesome and exciting summer this will be.

I think it is cool that Rehnquist was a gentleman and let O'Connor retire first.
