can you point out WHERE in the Constitution that it states that the USSC or for that matter ANY court can declare ANYTHING constitutional or UNconstitutional???

the FIRST time that the supremes decided to do that, they should have been "slapped down" & "slapped down HARD", by the POTUS/Congress. had the Founders done that, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in NOW, with abominations like Roe v. Wade.

the decisions of the courts were NEVER intended to be Holy Writ & did NOT "come down from the mount, graven in stone".(this will be a 'shock to your system", as you are KNOWN to be a WORSHIPER of the courts.)

imVho, we should do at least the following things to END the dictatorship of the courts"

1. change the Constitution to ELECT all judges for ONE 6-year term,

2. ASSURE that never again will any court MAKE laws, rather than interpret those laws &

3. REQUIRE that all judges be subject to RECALL "for cause" at ANY time in their term.
