<p>can someone tell me general dealings of the following justices: </p>
<p>Warren, Burger, Rehnquist.</p>
<p>or at least, did they serve a more liberal or conservative term while on the court?</p>
<p>Warren- Eisenhower thought he was a conservative but he became a liberal.
Burger- Conservative. Strict-constructionist.
Rehnquist- Mainly conservative. Presided over the Clinton impeachment trial and over the Bush v. Gore decision.</p>
<p>thanks, you're awesome.</p>
<p>Earl Warren is the justice that Eisenhower called himself a "damned fool" over because the Litmus Test didn't work.</p>
<p>Haha, I think that's funny. I couldn't remember the exact quote or I would've put it =].</p>
<p>Also, Earl Warren's court did a lot of stuff to improve rights of the accused. That's an important thing to know about him.</p>
<p>Oh, and Brown v. Board of Education..that one's slightly significant, too ;)</p>
<p>Rehnquist was against Roe v. Wade too. Does anybody know who the chief justice was in that case?</p>
<p>Warren and Burger were also judicial activists, while Rehnquist had judicial restraint</p>
<p>Roe v. Wade = Warren Burger (Rehnquist aka Satan wrote a dissenting opinion) haha</p>
<p>Okay. I was just curious, thanks =].</p>
