Lithwick discusses the Supreme Court
Anybody who believes the current Supreme Court looks like America needs to take a few more trips on a Greyhound bus. All the judges are white and/or old; most are both. Justice John Paul Stevens is 88 and Ruth Bader Ginsburg is 75. David Souter is 68, and it's widely rumored in legal circles that he wants out.
Clarence Thomas just turned 60 on Monday.
