Truth be told, most governments prior to the last generation or so have had the good sense to try to pick judicary that were relatively centrist and impartial too (with some notable exceptions).
Perhaps I'm looking at the world through rose-colored glasses, but in the past if there was some guy looking to be on the supreme court that wanted to overturn or strike down a wide swath of popular existing case law to please his masters, it was generally accepted that in the interest of public good he'd be quietly removed from the running. Things are considerably more pugnacious these days, in these opening days of the 'cold civil war'.
