Overcitation

There seems to me to be a lot of unnecessary source citation in this article -- for example, it's not clear why a sentence like this one -

After confirmation, the most senior and Acting Chief Justice, John Paul Stevens administered the oath of office at the White House, and Roberts began his term and what is known as the Roberts Court.

- requires any footnoted reference at all, let alone two of them. Shamira Gelbman 16:05, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
