A new U.S. Constitutional Amendment is needed requiring that ALL court findings be confined to, or restricted to, the U.S. Constitution and English Common Law, PERIOD! (Case Law and "penumbras" be DAMNED).

Judges who violate this new Amendment would readily be charged, indicted, tried, and ajudicated by the legislative body of jurisdiction. A finding of guilty would carry permanent disbarment from further judicial service.

You need to throw ratified treaties in there as well.

That can be done already - through impeachment. But it won't happen, because it takes a 2/3rds vote to remove in the Senate and the Dems and selected RINOs wouldnt' go along.

So, rather than trying to pass a Constitutional Amendment, increase the number of people who see judicial activism as a pox instead of a pancea.

The Supreme Court would declare it Unconstitutional and would not honor it. The Constitution is very clear NOW about the fact that the judiciary has NO enforcement power and that congress has the power to limit the court. But out WIMP Republicans will do nothing about it because they are afraid that they will not get invited to play golf with their democrat overseers.

Now ... how exactly would that be worded?

Are we going to pass a law that says that judges should follow the law??? And if they don't, they should be impeached???

You need to go read the article on judicial activism -- it might provide some knowledge to go with your passion.

That already IS the law.

But this is no longer a country that is ruled by law. Instead we are ruled by lawyers.

Judges Greer and Whittemore would declare such a law as absurd and it would go nowhere.

LOL. Common law is case law. Back to the drawing board...
