Yes, but not for the reason cited in the question. The SCOTUS doesn't answer to the Republicans, or Conservatives any more than they answer to the Democrats or Liberals. They answer, like the Democrats and Republicans, to the corporate interests which runs Washington. What they want they get. All the arguing and fighting is over over the scraps and "keeping up appearences". Nothing more.
