one of these days maybe we'll get a decent (read strict constructionist) court and they will do something worthwhile like dumping all the bad precedents like dredd scott,plessy v. ferguson, roe v. wade, etc.

frankly, i don't accept marbury v. madison as truthful to a reading of the constitution either. usurpation of powers NOT given the supreme court is almost as hateful to me as the lawless/immoral actions of the congress (like FAILING to outlaw Partial Birth MURDER, for example.).

when dixie LIBERTY comes, we'll have TRUE states rights & FREEDOM will ring.

Frankly, it doesn't make a bit of difference what you accept or not. The Constitution gives jurisdiction to the Supreme Court.

Earth to stand watie, earth to stand watie, come in stand watie. Scott v Sandford was negated by the passage of the 14th and 15th Amendments. Plessy v Ferguson was overturned by the court in 1954 in Brown v Board of Education. And Roe v Wade is constantly under pressure.
