Your Favorite Supreme Court (by Chief Justice)

[All Along The Watchtower]

EDIT: Messed up the poll—feel free to vote for any one of your three favorites.

For me, it’s Marshall, Hughes, and Warren.

I don't think anything comes close to the greatness of the Warren Court.

[Skill and Chance]

Probably late Hughes/Stone.  They put a bunch of utterly ridiculous legal theories that had basically rigged the entire economy for 2 generations to bed.  That's also roughly when federal law becomes recognizably modern, setting the stage for the later civil rights decisions.

[Fuzzy Bear]

The Warren Court (with reservations).

The Heavy-Handed Warren Court was the "Least Worst" way to resolve, legally, the various racial issues that had been festering in America for too long prior to 1954.  The Warren Court was willing to issue unanimous decisions on the major integration issues in order to assert the Court's authority.

[Torie]

Marshall is God. Please write that down.

Marshall is God. Please write that down.

I like the Marshalls Harlan myself.

[President Johnson]

Obviously the Warren Court.

Earl Warren himself was also one of the best Supreme Court justices ever.

I...completely agree with a Fuzzy Bear post. A miracle!

This would be my second pick.

[SWE]

The Warren Court, and this is as easy a decision for me as calling Lincoln the best president

[Mr. Smith]

Marshall, no contest.

[Kahane's Grave Is A Gender-Neutral Bathroom]

Warren, no contest.
