Eh, what else would you expect? Via Taegan-

Justice Anthony Kennedy, “who turns 74 this month, has told relatives and friends he plans to stay on the high court for at least three more years — through the end of Obama’s first term,” the New York Daily News reports.

“That means Kennedy will be around to provide a fifth vote for the court’s conservative bloc through the 2012 presidential election. If Obama loses, Kennedy could retire and expect a Republican President to choose a conservative justice.”

Anthony signed both the shameful judicial rulings in recent American history.

Bush V. Gore 5 -4 Decision
Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission 5-4 Decision

History will not remember Justice Kennedy kindly for these decisions.
