I find it amazing that Justice Stevens was the Republican nominee of a Republican president, and that he is now generally considered the most liberal (whatever "liberal" means) person on the Court. Either he has shifted way left over the past 30 years or the center point on the Court has moved way right. I'm very afraid it is the latter, and I hope that the president's next nominee, like Justice Sotomayor, will help it shift back toward the center. We need a Court that is in the center, that can make decisions based on what the law says and means, not one that is either on the right or left and decides based upon personal bias.
