	Talk about your overrated jobs. By Dahlia Lithwick
		The formal powers of the chief justice don't sound all that enticing: He or she is essentially like a glorified Alice on the Brady Bunch—getting to do all the administrative grunt work with which no one else would possibly want to be bothered.
		As chief justice, William Howard Taft (1921-1930) espoused the same philosophy: Dissents fostered an appearance of uncertainty and were only a form of egotism anyhow, in his view.
		Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes (chief from 1930-1941) regarded his opinion-assignment power as "a special opportunity for leadership" and, as a consequence, his "most delicate task." It doesn't sound like a big deal, but consider Warren Burger, chief justice from 1969 to 1986.

		Several High Court justices and lawyers described the judiciary’s attempts to ignore disappearances and “sweep the matter under the carpet.”[96] The High Court’s reliance on the police’s denial or its lack of motive as evidence of its innocence shows that the High Court did not intend to investigate these allegations.

	Mark Tushnet's A Court Divided. By Jeffrey Rosen
		Tushnet ascribes the court's comparative moderation to divisions among the Republican justices, arguing that intra-party tensions have limited the degree to which they were willing to advance the agenda of the corporate supporters of the Republican Party.
		The court does indeed follow the election returns, and there does not yet seem to be a national constituency for dismantling the regulatory state root and branch.
		Occasionally, the court tries to impose a vision that is intensely contested by national majorities (as it did during the 1930s), and in these rare cases it tends to provoke a political backlash, followed by a judicial retreat.

		Justice Shaw has been chief justice before -- that's a position that rotates through the justices -- probably is very well known for a lot of his rulings on the death penalty and on the prison system, but has been someone who's also been very attentive to individual rights.
