I think the system is just fine the way it is. It reflects the state of the political situation in the United States. 50% of the people voted for Bush, the other voted for Kerry. The surpreme court is no different than voters, there's the liberals and republicans.
Liberals think this way, the Republican thinks this way. If the US Supreme Court votes 9-0 on every matter, then something wrong because the minority voice is not being heard in the admist of the majority voice.
Most cases don't even make it to the supreme court. Those that do, are cases that are very difficult to judge on and must require close reading and intrepretation of the law.
No system is perfect. As long the human factor is imperfect, we will never create a system that is perfect.
