They are separate, but NOT equal. Separate be equal = liberal BS.

The legislative branch (Congress) has the ultimate say in this republic. They can dissolve courts, impeach the surpremes, and the president.
Next is the Executive branch, which may dissolve a court. This has happened before.
Last is the judicial, which CANNOT try the president or dissolve Congress.
This is how I understand it. If anyone can prove otherwise, PLEASE DO...

I don't know what you'll accept as proof, but given that the courts can declare laws unconstitutional, it seems that Congress does not have the "ultimate" say.

I would suggest Article 3, Section 2 of the Constitution for your reading pleasure. Actually, the whole document is suggested reading for freepers.
