Fantasy Scotus. What an Idea.

Can I pack the bench with cartoon characters? Daffy and Bugs, Jerry (but not Tom), Quick Draw McGraw, The Pink Panther, Frylock, Big Gay Al, Huey Freeman, and Mentok The Mindtaker.

That's too depressing a game to play, I'm afraid.

I'd like to pick a fantasy SCOTUS, populated by my idea of good jurists.

Spoiler alert:

Ginsburg.

In my fantasy SCOTUS, they would all be doing something else.
