Justice Stephen Field, appointed by Lincoln
Justice Horace Gray, appointed by Chester Arthur, a Republican
Justice John Harlan, appointed by Rutherford Hayes, a Republican
Justice David Brewer, appointed by Benjamin Harrison, a Republican
Justice Henry Brown, appointed by Harrison
Justice George Shiras, Jr., appointed by Harrison
Justice Edward White, appointed by Cleveland
Justice Rufus Peckham, appointed by Cleveland
Though Harlan gets mad props for dissenting.

Brewer abstained and Harlan dissented. the republicans appointees were only 66% in favour. The dem appointees were 100% there. The Dems have a strong bad seed running through them, no pun intended. Join us on the light side Ty. Red or white?
