Is it time for a March on the SCOTUS and the Judiciary and the Senate?

Is it time for a March on the SCOTUS and the Judiciary and the Senate?

Are you as fed up as I am over the bad decisions being handed down by the SCOTUS and throughout the judiciary? Are you tired of judicial activism? Are you tired of being ruled by the men in black robes? Is it time to remind the SCOTUS that We The People ARE the final arbiters of law and justice in this land?

Are you fed up with the weak-kneed Republican Senate? Are you ready to drop the nuclear option on the obstructionist Democrats? Are you fed up with Specter and the RINOs?

Is it time for us to rise up and march on Washington again? How many of you are willing to join me in another march to D.C. to straighten out these yahoos and remind them of who's in charge in this republic?

If they can do it in Lebanon, we can do it here!!

When did SCOTUS start making bad decisions, Jim?

:) I'm only kidding!

I think it's time to encourage governors to tell SCOTUS to stuff it over this ruling, and go ahead with their state-level perogatives. SCOTUS only has power when its rulings are heeded, as Andrew Jackson once pointed out.

So a teenager is not considered mentally and emotionally developed enough to be culpable for killing a man, but a teenager IS mentally and emotionally developed enough to have an abortion?

Slavery would have been declared a constitutional right if Justice Kennedy was around in the 19th century. After all, the national trend going back to the founding fathers was to own slaves...

I'd settle for reminding them that the U.S. Constitution is.

The problem is, SCOTUS is basically immune to public opinion. Which can be a good thing or a bad thing. We can protest at SCOTUS until we are blue in the face - but I doubt Sandra Day O'Connor would care.

Now, if governors told SCOTUS that their ruling was illegitimate and carried no influence on their state perogatives, now THAT would get the attention of SCOTUS.

Actually .. it's time to march on the Congress and force them to reign in this rogue court. According to Mark Levin, Congress has the authority to regulate the COURTS - why aren't they ..??

Then we can march on the Senate and tell them to get a grip - and forsake their inviations to the Hamptons next summer and STAND UP FOR THE CONSTITUTION - for pity's sake!!

CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW.........The best part of The Constitution.

The Supreme Court shall find no flaw........Should be in there somewhere........

Yes. D.C. has nice weather in late April. That's when Congress returns from its Easter recess and when the Senate will likely have the first floor votes on judicial nominees.

Try living in New York where the Nine Nazgul are supplemented, and occasionally superceded by, the Seven Dwarves of the New York Court of Appeals.
