No, that is not the job of the judiciary. Marbury v. Madison set the precedent for ruling things as void if they violated the constitution, it says nothing about the court being the place legislature is written. People like you are part of the problem.

Methinks you misunderstand me, and you should retract your last comment.

Marbury v. Madision is the very genesis of Judicial activism, because "Judicial Review" was invented by the Supreme Court from whole cloth.

In other words, the Constitution does not have "Judicial Review" as an enumerated power.

And thus the power grab the Supreme Court was ALLOWED to take in 1803 has lead to the tyranny from the bench we have today.
