  4. related topics
Despite what we hear today . . .

1. THE JUDICIARY IS NOT A CO-EQUAL BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT
The legislative authority elected by the people necessarily predominates.

2. THE JUDICIARY IS NOT TO BE AN INDEPENDENT BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT
If the judges are made independent they will become a dangerous body.

3. THE JUDICIARY IS NOT THE SOLE BRANCH CAPABLE OF DETERMINING CONSTITUTIONALITY
The judges must interpret the laws; they ought not to be legislators.

4. FEDERAL JUDGES DO NOT HOLD LIFETIME APPOINTMENTS .
Federal judges may be removed by Congress for misbehavior

5. THE PURPOSE OF THE SUPREME COURT IS NOT TO PROTECT THE MINORITY FROM THE MAJORITY, AND CONGRESS IS A BETTER PROTECTOR OF MINORITY RIGHTS THAN IS THE JUDICIARY.
Congress is a better guardian of the people and the minority than are the courts who extended slavery in America for 70 years

  • The fact that GWB got to hand-pick the Supreme Court with little interference from "The Hill" should be enough to make anyone shudder.
