Who would you appoint to the Supreme Court?

[Kaine for Senate '18]

What 9 people would you appoint to the Supreme Court?

[SPC]

Andrew Napolitano, Jim Gray, Edwin Vieira, and my uncle would top the list. Not sure who the other five would be.

[paul718]

The first person to post the name of a TV "Judge" loses 50 cool points.

[Keystone Phil]

Former Pennsylvania Attorney General and current federal judge Michael Fisher would be Chief Justice.

[Platypus]

I'm only going to appoint one person, to Souter's seat, which is what this thread should have done. I'd appoint Kim McLane Wardlaw

[Lief 🗽]

Russ Feingold or Barack Obama

Lunar obviously has no school spirit.

[JSojourner]

Eight liberals and Torie.

[Keystone Phil]

My overall make up would be five conservatives, two moderates and two liberals.

[Frodo]

John Roberts, Jr. (Chief Justice)
Antonin Scalia 
Samuel Alito, Jr.
J. Michael Luttig
Emilio Garza
Anthony Kennedy
Sonia Sotomayor
Adalberto Jordan
Leroy Hassell, Sr.
---------------------------------

I would be willing to go with a much more liberal Supreme Court once DC vs. Heller is strengthened, Roe vs. Wade (and, by extension, Planned Parenthood vs. Casey) is struck down, and gay marriage advocates give up hopes of forcing gay marriage on the nation by judicial fiat. 

Until then, I am perfectly content to let the Federalist Society reign supreme over the judiciary branch for a time.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Leroy Rountree Hassell, Sr. - Chief Justice
Boyce F. Martin, Jr.
Elena Kagan
Mark L. Pryor
Sonia Sotomayor
Merrick Garland
Adalberto Jordan
Leah Ward Sears
Roger Gregory

[Torie]

Eight liberals and Torie.

You think a mere 8-1 ratio could keep me contained? 

[paul718]

Richard Posner

CAN SOMEONE ADMIRE THIS REFERENCE IT'S VERY RECENT HUMOR

[Lunar]

Richard Posner

has that ever happened in history before, where a retiring justice is replaced by an even older dude?

[Coburn In 2012]

Jay Sekulow

Former Senator Rick Santorum

Judge Roy Moore

Judge Robert Bork (if in good health)

J. Michael Smith, Esq.

Former Ohio AG Kenneth Blackwell

Judge Priscilla Owen

[John Dibble]

Nobody particularly comes to mind, but I would have three conservatives, three libertarians, and three liberals.

[JSojourner]

Eight liberals and Torie.

You think a mere 8-1 ratio could keep me contained? 

Certainly not.  I would depend on you to keep the majority in line!  And you'd be just the guy to do it.  Only Nixon could go to China, yanno...

Jay Sekulow

A Judas if I ever saw one.

Interesting list. I am not sure appending my name to it at the bottom is meant as a compliment however, given "the names" above (a little Lloyds of London lingo there for you).
