No one is able to be entirely impartial in their opinions, and Supreme Court Justices are no exception. Presidents usually nominate candidates who exhibit the same biases as the President, and Congress usually confirms them based on the congressional makeup at the time.

In the case of President Bush, he nominated conservative candidates, who were confirmed by a conservative Congress. It is reasonable to assume that President Obama will be more liberal in his choices, which will likely be confirmed by the present generally-liberal Congress.

We may expect that Bush's nominees will continue to apply their conservative philosophies to their decisions, and that they will be in some respects opposed by any future appointees from President Obama, and vice versa. In any case, the court and their decisions tend to even out over time.
