Allow me to introduce you to the supremacy of the American people. All inferior federal courts serve at the pleasure of Congress, which in turn serves at the pleasure of the American people. If it pleases the American people Congress can eliminate all inferior federal courts, including the federal court that ruled on the Schiavo case.
Section. 1. The judicial Power of the United States shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.
Ours is neither the power of the purse nor the sword but of moral persuasion.
He who has the power to interpret the laws is in fact the lawmaker.
Yeah, but that'll never, ever happen. The courts make far too convenient of a scapegoat for Congress to ever eliminate them. Look at the case at hand - Congress passes a do-nothing bill, and then gets to blame the courts when nothing gets done. Talk about having your cake and eating it too - they don't have to take responsibility for doing anything, and they get to escape any blame for doing nothing.
