"Throw the bums out" bump!

[thoughtomator]

Well, now... someone starting to figure it out?

[Unam Sanctam]

I hope they pass this resolution.

I think this trend -- using "international" precedent in formulating Supreme Court opinion -- is as vile, disgusting, and dangerous as anything in American history.

Unfortunately, the public is largely unaware of it and its lethality.

[syriacus]

This is what I call "thinking outside the box."

[Old Sarge]

Never happen. And y'all know it. SCOTUS is there for life.

Move along, citizens, there's nothing to see here, go back to your lives, "Friends" is on in ten minutes, anyway...

[MinuteGal]

Well, Sen. Arlene Spectre delved into Scottish law during the Klintoon impeachment proceedings, so why not the Supremes?

After all, multi-culturalism and globalism is where it's at today, and the justices want to be seen as cool dudes and dudettes.....even though most of them are a banana-peel away from slipping off this mortal coil.

I remember this came up last summer or fall. Democrats did the usual thing and justified it with idiotic comparisons or calling European laws superior.

Personally i want to staple a copy of the constitution to the forehead of the judges, when I'm done i want to staple a copy of the declaration of Independence to the foreheads of liberals.

"The impressions we create in this world are important and they can leave their mark," O'Connor said in remarks quoted in the Atlanta Constitution. Looking to foreign precedents "may not only enrich our own country's decisions, I think it may create that all-important good impression.""


The loons have lost it. MARK this woman she is a fruit.

The next step in denying God's sovereignty over the United States will go to these nine people . .

"The question is or at least ought to be, how can such a small, godless, minority have such influence over our courts and legislative processes?"

Impeachment is one way to approach TREASON.

A Congressional resolution trying to control the decision-making methodology of the Supreme Court would be a snub to the separation of powers ... and without any effect.

In the first few decades of its work, the Supreme Court made extensive use of British court precedents.

The recent Supreme Court decisions hardly ever mention foreign decisions - and then almost invariably with regard to how treaties to which the US is a party are interpreted by other parties. Even then, the court is not "following" these foreign decisions, but merely using them as examples of legal analysis and interpretation of provisions that are the same in both countries.

Impeach O'Connor, Kennedy and Buzzi Ginsburg.

This bill, or something like it, is sorely needed. There is ONE supreme law of this land, and that is the Constitution of the United States of America. Not the Bible, not the Quran, not resolutions from the Dictators' Club United Nations...

[Celtman]

In fact 12 federal judges have been impeached: Impeachments of Federal Officials
Seven were convicted and removed from office; one resigned; and three were acquitted.
