I disagree, simply because Marshall, as Chief Justice of SCOTUS, made the principle LAW after the Constitiution was adopted.

Don't goive up hope, with yesterday's debachle, the slinky six (5-1/2) may have bitten off more than they can chew.

I would be willing to bet many a senator's office has been inundated with phone calls supporting a "Nuclear" option. We may even see one of the RINOs change to yes on the rule change because of the Soverignty issue...

Listen to Laura Ingraham tomorrow - She had a lot of well placed anger today about this, and made one feel that one was not alone...

Goodness, don't forget the Bloggers! And not just me. I'm betting some of the big Blog site will carry the info.

Today, don't know if y'all heard, Rush Limbaugh told the detail of the crime that 17 year old committed that was used for this case.

It was so horrific that I could hardly listen I got so upset.

Then I hear this bit about Justice Kennedy citing adherence to "international standards" and well, I don't have to tell you the anger, and UTTER HELPLESSNESS I felt.

Also, I listened to The Great One, Levin, wrote a book "Men in Black" during an interview with Rush. His book is, indeed, a great one from what I heard.

But yet again.....it made me mad and feel helpless.

Please don't get me started on those Senate Republicans. THEY are totally helpless.

And .. we need to remind all the repubs - the reason Bush is so popular is because he doesn't take any guff from the dems or anybody else.

Just watching the President walk right into the middle of a group of security people and pulling his guy out - and saying, "this issue is over". In other words, the argument about whether his security guy was coming into the room with him was a non-issue!

He took charge - he took control - he wasn't nasty - just honest - IT'S OVER!! He's a cowboy - and we love that about him.

Maybe we need to convey that to our senators and try to make them realize that if they don't DO SOMETHING they are going to lose our support!!

Depends on when you do it. I'm getting married in April, so bad timing if before the wedding, but then again my fiance and I talked about DC for the honeymoon? If I can't go, I'll see what I can do locally. Let me know more info.

I'm a new participant here, still in my larva stage, but I'll come.

I thought there was an open area between the Capitol and the Supreme Court, I don't know how restricted the access is.

Let me know when/where, and if anyone needs a lift from Dulles, I can pick you up on the way.

Impeachment of Federal Judges

by David Barton
Link to Article
"The Founders' intent for impeachment was to protect the fundamental principle of “the consent of the governed.” The Constitution carries no title but “We the People,” and impeachment removes from office those officials who ignore that standard. (Recall that the Constitution does not guarantee a federal judge his position for life, but only for the duration of “good behavior.” Art. III, Sec. 1)

For this reason impeachment was used whenever judges disregarded public interests, affronted the will of the people, or introduced arbitrary power by seizing the role of policy-maker. Previous generations used this tool far more frequently than today's generation; and because the grounds for impeachment were deliberately kept broad, articles of impeachment have described everything from drunkenness and profanity to judicial high-handedness and bribery as reasons for removal from the bench. (Sixty-one federal judges or Supreme Court Justices have been investigated for impeachment, of whom thirteen have been impeached and seven convicted.) " See Remainder of Article

I trust Bush. I haven't felt that way about many Presidents.

Me either. And if the repubs want the same trust - they will have to earn it.

This troublemaker checking in in the affirmative.

SCOTUS' majority has, with their decision regarding juvenile murderers, shown that they will listen to public opinion - when that public opinion originates in a foreign land. It's time to remind them that the law of this land is of, by and for the people of this land, and not the people of the world community.

Will we be carrying images of pitchforks and hammerhandles??

I would love to be there, but physical difficulties will keep me from participating.

However, I would love to see the theme of 'UPHOLDING THE CONSTITUTION" be expressed.

Maybe several posters displaying the constitution that could be mounted on something that all would hold from underneath??? Thus, "upholding" the Constitution. Then carrying in front of the Supreme Court Bldg.
