The question as to separation of powers, and the limitations upon the legislature were defined, as I'm sure you know, in Marbury vs. Madison (1803):

And what you seem completely willing to ignore is the limits on the power of the Judiciary. We are not a Theocracy of Judges. I know that makes certain segments, specifically in the Legal Community, uncomfortable but they are getting a pretty stiff reminder tonight. The Courts are suppose to be the SERVENT, not the MASTER, of the people. The ultimate power in our system is are the people. What you are seeing is a completely legitimate exercise of the Legislature power to check the Judiciary. It called "Checks and Balances". Learn it, Live it, LOVE it.

And what you will see at some point in the not too far future, is the federal courts reestablishing their checks and balances upon the legislative body. Then you will have to learn it, live it, love it. Enjoy your brief elation while you can. But the judiciary will once again flex it's muscle. It's a fact.
