Sumario:The U.S. Supreme Court has ceased to be a strictly legal institution, if it ever was one. That's why we see such impassioned political struggles over any appointment of a new Justice.

The question is explored here through a careful selection and reassessment of a dozen very interesting and controversial cases.
