Don’t fall for the twisted leftist headlines.

Read Newt’s actual position paper on:

Bringing the Courts Back Under the Constitution

Read and bookmark.

Jim,

It is as obvious to you as it is to me. We have entirely too many folks here that only read headlines and drive-by banter instead of being curious enough to read the whole story to form their own informed opinion.

Yup,

Do yourself a favor and surprise us all by doing your own homework and required reading before your other shoe begins to taste better than your first. The answers to life are not multiple choice.

From your link:

For his part, when Franklin Delano Roosevelt found the Supreme Court consistently throwing out New Deal legislation, he attempted to pack the Court with additional Supreme Court justices. While Roosevelt ultimately lost the battle in Congress, the assault had so intimidated the conservative justices that they shifted their opinions dramatically to accommodate the views of the vast majority of the American people as expressed in their votes for president and Congress. Roosevelt lost the battle but won the war.

Roosevelt was wrong, and so is Newt Gingrich.
