We'll have to fix the courts first, and that'll take a) a conservative majority in Congress and the (doubly-slimed, by the Pervmeister and now the Hutmeister) White House, and then b) a constitutional amendment to put the Supremes and all those activist judges back in their boxes and back on good behavior.

One idea would be to modify the life appointment subject to good behavior. For one thing, to cure liberal judges of their weenings and leanings, how about this? If a judge is reversed in any five-year window more than X% of the time by the Supremes, he gets tossed. And we could address it personally to the putzes of the Ninth Circus in California.

Same thing for the Supremes: X% of minority votes in Y years -- poof, you're retired. Double black-mark points if you're reversed by a later Supreme Court ruling or by a constitutional amendment (like, when we take down Lawrence, Roe, and Griswold, and the gun-control cases in Miller 1939, Presser 1886, and the Klan-contaminated Cruikshank 1877 [that tried permanently to deny the BoR protections to all individuals by restricting BoR protections to federal cases, implicitly denying them for any case brought under state law], by constitutional amendment -- which would instantly, under my broad-minded and clever plan, throw double black marks on every federal judge who ever issued an opinion consistent with the offending cases).

Sounds as though you should run for office. State senator?

Seriously.

Have you read Travis McGee/Bracken’s books? I think that’s what will have to happen, unfortunately. If you haven’t read them, I HIGHLY recommend them.
