So long sweet reason

OK, he wasn't the most reasonable Justice, that title would probably have to go to Thomas, but William H. Rehnquist was a breath of fresh air in the court.

While he was hardly an idealogue or even an originalist, he was remarkably consistent in his application of his judicial philosophy. A hard combination to match these days. Ginsburg, Souter, Kennedy are all either totally lacking in a judicial philosophy, or willing to bend it at will to fit whatever outcome they want to arrive at.

Not long ago, he swore that he wouldn't retire from the court. Once again, he kept his word. So long William Rehnquist. I hope you find rest with our Lord.
