David Sterira (1939–2025) liked the facts, and the facts are anathema for the movement of conservatives.
The Justice of the Supreme Court David Sutter.

Former Supreme Court Judge David Stern died on Friday morning at the age of 85. The Supreme Court did not give out the cause of death, only reporting that he had died “peacefully” at his house, New Hampshire.
The only thing that everyone knows about the sauter is that he was a “Republican” appointed by George W. Bush, who eventually voted with the Liberals. This is true, what is worth, but the real story is deeper and more difficult.
Current Issue
To understand how the sauter began to be considered as a “traitor” of the conservative movement of the white wing, you first need to understand something about the person he replaced, “justice” William J. Brennan -Younger. Brennan was the seventh, which served as the Supreme Court in the history and Lev of the Liberal Wing of the Court. He was justice that most people think the chief judge Earl Warren. He wrote more than 1,200 opinions and was one of the most influential judges who were sitting on the court.
In 1990, Brennan was a stroke and left the court shortly after 85 years. The vacancy gave President George W. Bush the opportunity to appoint his first appointment of the Supreme Court.
Now it will sound amazing for people who are familiar with the Republicans as the Supreme Court as a life or death for a white cultural patriarchate, but Republicans, like today’s Democrats, once insisted on the Supreme Court as a non -partisan government. The nominating stumbling, Bush said, “You may just think that the whole nomination was something to do with abortion … This is something much wider than it. I respect the Supreme Court too much.” I know, I know that this quote sounds like the president of a completely different country from the one we live, and perhaps it.
The right in this: Bush Elder was never Going to highlight a hard conservative to replace a Liberal Super Store as Brennan, and the Senate controlled by the Democrats 55-45 never confirmed a tough choice.
Only moderate, centrist, non-feathers, the Republican will go through the confirmation process, and the bill corresponds. The South has long been served as a judge of the Supreme Court of New Hampshire, which was erected by Bush a few months before the location of the Appeal Court of the First District Court. He had no functionally recorded what the Democrats could attack him: he did not actively campaign for the appointment of the Supreme Court and, So the story goesNot even fully unpacked his office on the first chain.
In his corner, there was also a powerful ally: the former governor of New Hampshire and the Chief of Staff of the White House Bush John Sunun.
The bun sailed through the process and was confirmed by the Senate 90-9. (Senator Pete Wilson from California did not vote, but Senators Ted Kennedy and John Kerry with Massachusetes voted against SUTER – How do you like Dem Apples?)
The Couter never had to be cruel ideological. This difference will go to the next meeting Bush Clarence Thomas, who was considered a nomination after Brennan retired, but Bush wanted to “save” him when Marshal’s Turgud retired (because they are both black, see). The dummy always had to be a moderate conservative.
And he was. The pipe did not become more liberal because it served in the Supreme Court – the Republicans of the Supreme Court became more extremist until it served, and the Sater just refused to go down into this darkness.
Sauter liked the facts, and the facts are anathema for the movement of conservatives. I think Oyses To summarize their judicial philosophy is quite beautiful when they write: “Many Souter opinions have suggested that the law should depend on the basic empirical facts and should change when these empirical realities change.” Stern defended democracy, which meant that he defended the rights of the elected government (Congress and the President) to do almost everything he wanted, with a minimal judgment. He was conservativeThen, when it meant something other than the problems with the War Wings Culture, which is masked as a law.
The difference between the practical Conservatism Souter and the right wing’s extremism came to the head in 1992, Planned paternity against Casey. It was a frontal problem Rooe v. Wade What the Conservatives who have an 8-11 preference in the Supreme Court thought they could use for abortion. But they were wrong. South and other republican judges such as Sandra Day O’Conn and Anthony Kennedy Bol. I wrote about the case detailed and explained It was the moment, the last moment when practicality won ideology among some republican judges.

Republicans have never overcome the sauter and his vote in Planned paternity. As long as George W. Bush was appointed by the Supreme Court (by the way, with the help of a sauter who entered the Republicans in Bush against the mountainsFlorida’s managed retelling unconstitutional, at the same time disagreeing from the opinion of the national majority that no constitutional list can be produced), the refrain continues in the conservative circles: “No more bum.”
I would claim that the Republicans reformed the entire trial of the nomination to avoid another choice as a bum. The bumin was cause The Federalistic Society was controlled by the judge’s republican trial. He would be the latest non -profit choice made by the republican president. Don’t believe me? Here is a list of judges of the Supreme Court, successfully appointed by Republicans after SUTER: Clarence Thomas, John Roberts, Samuel Alita, Neil Grzukh, Bretat Kavana, Amy Horse Barrett.
All six of these judges voted in favor Rooe v. Wade in Dobbs v..
While the Sauter forced the Republicans to rethink how they went nominations, he slaughtered the Democrats into a false sense of security and self -resorting over his own nomination process – and the fight for courts. The Sun (and O’Connar greatly forced the Democrats to think that appointed by republican judges may be reflected and will manage the law and practical realities instead of guerrilla policy. Democrats have never received memoirs that Republicans have changed their entire strategy around the Supreme Court. The same democratically controlled also A year later, Clarence Thomas confirmed. For some reason, the Democrats could not notice the difference.
Couter retired in 2009, at the age of 69. He was still a healthy man and could easily serve for a decade. But he never went to Washington. He returned to New Yampshire and returned to the auditory cases in the first chain, and the work he was never allowed to have. His retirement gave Barack Obama the first vacancy of the Supreme Court, which he filled with Justice Sonia Sotomo. Sotomer presented as a moderate, centralist Liberal – actually in the form of a sauter. Perhaps she is probably Hyper-predicted basic facts From the cases she hears.
These days, the Supreme Court can never be appointed to the Supreme Court, like David Sutor, to the Supreme Court. The era, if the president can choose justice without knowing in advance where they will fall on all the most important issues, and the cases are over. Now the judges need to prove that they will comply with the president’s agenda, which has appointed them more. Each party has “litmus tests” and the failure is not an option.
Most people will say this bad A thing, but I don’t have time for such a blunt naivety. The Supreme Court is the most powerful branch of the government, the only one that can function functionally on the two other united. As long as the court has the right to act as a guerrilla industry, it must be filled with guerrillas.
South is an appointment you think when you think the Supreme Court is above politics. But the bum has lived long enough to see that the court just no longer works.
