The word "Integrity" comes to mind for a quality that seems to be increasingly rare in the Supreme Court. And our nation's laws and actions are going to be shaped or influenced by these people for many years, sad to say.
I noticed with appreciation the neat skewering of (retired? Judge) Bork on Making Light recently -- he's an Original Intent Strict Constructionist ... except when it comes to things like Tort Reform to limit the amount of damages for which people can sue. And he's suing a group for a million dollars after falling when ascending a dias.
