Uh-oh, here's the Justices that the RW'ers will go after.
Breyer, Ginsburg, Souter, and Stevens all voted for the eminent domain ruling and voted "anti-10 Commandments".

Watch for an "Activist Judge" smear campaign coming to a propaganda outlet near you!

Justice Sandra Day O'Connor (born 1930, appointed by Ronald Reagan in 1981);
Justice Antonin Scalia (born 1936, appointed by Ronald Reagan in 1986);
Justice Anthony Kennedy (born 1936, appointed by Ronald Reagan in 1988);
Justice David Souter (born 1939, appointed by George H. W. Bush in 1990);

3. What am I looking for - Oh yeah - Be careful what you wish for.
Maybe a few heads over there will explode and some of the others will start to wake up. Right.

4. All nine were appointed by corporatists.
I'd say we finally have something to join the freeps in complaining about.

5. Well, Breyer and Ginsberg were both appointed by Clinton. So,
once again, "It's Clinton's fault!"
