Yes, Clinton appointed him. He was born in 1938. He could be one to retire soon, along with Ruth Buzzy-Bader Ginsberg, born in 1933.
With the way things are now, most of the Justices won’t take the risk of an ideological opposite taking their place, so they’ll stay until they’re carried out feet-first. The late Chief Justice Rehnquist stayed on the bench in great pain to prevent Clintoon from appointing one of his stooges in his place, and that demonstrated enormous character. In the case of JP Stevens (who is older than Rehnquist) is trending towards 90, and that sorry old liberal fool should’ve retired 15 years ago. Breyer and Buzzy will try to match his longevity.
None of the Libs on the court will voluntarily leave as long as GWB is President. Too bad.
