We all think it is fine and good until the Dems control congress and use this power.

This is another one of those cases where Newt should have ended his thought process two sentences before he did.

I would like to see Dems use this power.
How is holding judges to constitutional ruling a bad thing?
Ruling strictly to the constitution is good for all. But I think you do not understand the issue.

“We all think it is fine and good until the Dems control congress and use this power.”

While most on here agree the judiciary is out of control, there ARE some conservative/constitutional decisions by the court(s), eg. 2nd Amendment decision. What if Obama decided his justice dept. wasn’t gonna follow that ruling?

So your comments are succinct, accurate, and well thought out unlike some of the other comments that agree with the Gingrich loose cannon remarks. Impeachment or modifying the Constitution are unfortunately the only Constitutional ways of dealing with the imperial judiciary, along with appointing responsible judges in the future and filibustering to prevent idealogues from reaching the courts (is that possible?).
