Court disappoints conservatives as term ends
Justice Antonin Scalia delivered sharp criticisms on the courts final day of the term. He argued the justices overstep their bounds and called rulings on detainees and other issues irresponsible. Liberal John Paul Stevens led the opposition with notable dissents and the oldest justice shaped several major opinions. Moderate swing voters Sandra Day OConnor and Anthony Kennedy issued few dissents.
