Wow, this guy has been around since NIXON. I can't recall the last time two USSC judges stepped down within a two week time frame.

It happened in 1971. Rehnquist also hasn't officially announced his retirement last I heard. It was just the Washington rumor mill. There's even
talk of Ruth Bader Ginsburg stepping down this year for health concerns, too. The senate floor is going to be one messy place soon...
