15. Bush v. Gore was about the dumbest Supreme Court decision I've ever read.

And they knew it was dumb and completely result-oriented, which is no doubt why they issued it per curiam (by the court) so we wouldn't know who actually wrote the opinion. Only three of the justices who heard that case (Thomas, Breyer and Ginsburg) are still on the court, though. Rehnquist was actually worse and more extreme than any of the current court members, with the possible exception of Thomas.
