WASHINGTON – Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens says he "will surely" retire while President Barack Obama is still in office, giving the president the opportunity to maintain the high court's ideological balance.
Stevens said in newspaper interviews on the Web Saturday that he will decide soon on the timing of his retirement, whether it will be this year or next. Stevens, the leader of the court's liberals, turns 90 this month and is the oldest justice

I'm in favor of all the GOP appointees stepping down. Such as Stevens.
Of course you are. Libs have to turn to unelected judges to get their will forced on other people. Damn if the Constitution should stand in your way.
