Horrible person. John Paul Stevens is the least principled member of the liberal bloc on the Supreme Court. His decisions are (unlike, say, David Souter's) extremely arbitrary and often inconsistent: consider, for example, his support for almost total freedom of speech in many cases on the one hand, but his opposition to the right to burn a flag on the other.

You left out the fact that he's a senile creep who doesn't understand supply and demand.

He's a Freedom Fighter. He was appointed by a Republican but is doing whats best for the country.

Although if he was in the majority on Kelo-New London then that sucks.

Well technically, in that "always, automatically" sense of logical if-then chains, the clown in the above is of course called Barnett.

IIRC, he wrote it.

Justice Stevens may abandon the Constitution on occassion, but he still fights for freedom IMO.

Ocassionally?!?

Stevens is a knee jerk liberal who has no regard whatsoever for the Constitution and believes it is his purpose to implement the liberal agenda.

He has shown considerable skill in manipulating O'connor and Kennedy.
