The Justices that ruled on RvW, and kept it alive were appointed by republicans. 7 of the 9 sitting justices at the time were appointed by republicans. The majoriy of the justices that ruled in favor of RvW were conservatives. 4 or 5, if my memory serves, that ruled in favor, were conservatives. Look it up. It's fact. I'll post the justices, and let you figure the numbers, and who appointed them.

Majority Blackmun, Burger, Douglas, Brennan, Stewart, Marshall, Powell
Concurrence Burger
Concurrence Douglas
Concurrence Stewart
Dissent White
Dissent Rehnquist

Republcans couldn't have known what the justices would do in that case. But none the less true 5 of the 7 majority were appointed by republicans. So, now I see the deceit of your statement.
