Irreverent nicknames for Supreme Court Justices

All right, let’s have a little fun and a few laughs. I know this is irreverent and disrespectful, but I have little respect for any of the Justices. I know the stuffed shirts, and Supreme Court idolaters will not be pleased, but there must be a few people out there with a sense of sarcastic humor. The Justices already have in-court nicknames, but let’s have some fun and make up some new ones. CJ John, “Rehnquist II,” Roberts (or “the Charmer”) Clarence “19th Century” Thomas (or “Big Mouth”) Antonin, “The Originalist,” Scalia (or “the Professor,” “the Scourge” [of oral argument]) Samuel, “Attila,” Alito. Stephen “the Huckster” Breyer Sonya,“Wise Latina,” Sotomayor Elena, “Ivory Tower,” Kagan Ruth Bader, Sourpuss” Ginsburg, and finally, my favorite Justice Anthony “The trapeze artist” Kennedy (or “How much am I bid”) We certainly can’t let Stevens get by even though he has retired: John Paul “way past retirement” Stevens.
