The Supreme Court voted last week to undo private property rights and to empower governments to kick people out of their homes and give them to someone else because they feel like it," said House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, Texas Republican. "No court that denies property rights will long respect and recognize other basic human rights."

I am confused as to what check and balance there is to the judiciary if they choose to violate the Public Use clause of the Fifth Amendment?

Congress has the power of the purse and can and has used funding to voice its dissent with the Executive Branch. Why is this a problem when applied to the Judiciary? If there are true checks and balances, the Court isn't exempt from an act of Congress any more than a President is.
