Justices should absolutely be held to a much higher standard.
The ONLY thing that matters is that they respect the constitution above any personal opinions. Can't say that about servel current jokes on the bench.

And, there are checks and balances to the court.
No branch operates independent of the others.

Unless Dingy Harry is in charge of it.

lamboguy,

You say you like President Trump. Well you may not have him much longer as president, due to Flake's defecation on his constituents. I will tell you a consequence of Flake's support for the dem power play.

You see hcap's thread about the suit against the President regarding the Emoluments clause. Do you think it was a coincidence a federal judge allowed the suit to proceed against the President after Kavanaugh's confirmation has been delayed again.

The dems will use this clause to impeach the President. The dems, have proven, they only need to allege someone is guilty, in order to get their way.

Thank you Flake, for allowing the Emoluments lawsuit to go forward by siding with the dem power play.

Where do you come up with this shit? They do not have absolute power. The Court is limited in power just like the legislative branch and the executive branch.

Check those limits.

Check Marbury vs. Madison and the fact nothing was done to change the power of the court afterward when most those constitutional authors were still alive.

The Supreme Court commonly referred to "the supreme law of the land."

Yeah I'll stand by my framers intent argument.

Or are we playing word games again... fine remove absolute and replace with "supremacy of the judiciary."

So this guy is a drunk and they never caught this in a background check? I find that doubtful. They go pretty deep on these things.

I was contacted for someone's background check just because I lived in the same building. I didn't know him and had zero to give. Now if they asked be about the guy right below me I could tell them he is a drunk who I'd bet my NYRA account isn't driving because his license got pulled. Also smokes a ridiculous amount of pot. Can't get his butt out of bed to get to work on time and screams at his mother when she gets sick of waiting outside for him. I know all of this and I've only said hi to him once in almost two years.

Democrats should worry about over playing their hand with people like me. I officially left the party maybe 5 years ago because my locals don't care that I'm wrecking my car on garbage pothole covered streets while they focus on Styrofoam cups. I still voted for some Dems if I liked them. I've always voted all across the board. I declared last week the my Sen Gillabrand can be thanked for my decision to not vote for a democrat again unless someone speaks out against this sort of stuff. So in November I'll probably be writing in a lot of names. Wont hurt anyone in NY but in some states it could be a problem.

So does that mean the Supreme Court cannot be limited by Congress or have Congress overturn decisions?

Good luck with that.

If you want to split the question stay on the same parts of the question.

What I'm saying is the "we all make mistakes" logic is fine when looking at hiring a new shift manager for your business... or literally any other job in the world.

Except

The Supreme Court.

99.9% of people out there should be disqualified from that job.

Originality never was your strong suit. Just cling to the liberal bandwagon for the free ride. Sound familiar?

You said the Court has absolute power. I said it does not, it is subject to the checks and balances of government. So tell me which is it? The constitution has original jurisdiction in enumerated matters, but does that fact give it absolute power or is it subject to congress, which means it does not have absolute powers.

Give us your opinion.

As I said, you are much more despicable than I ever imagined on the R thread.

And totally out of your right wing mind. Chumpy has a litany of misdeeds against him. All of them will end his presidency.

The Emoluments clause lawsuit was brought against him months ago. It was only a matter of time till ruled on whether to proceed.

This is total bull....

Not only despicable but you are a another conspiracy theorist like special k and Lindsey Graham bitching about the left and "Clinton's revenge"

I said let's wait till Dr Ford testifies to judge her creditably after you coldly and stupidly compared her to one of Cosby's victims. As I said boxcarian territory.

You and all the other right wing geniuses lost. Just like every rightie (especially boxcar) was so sure the FBI could not and would not investigate.

And she testified exactly as I predicted. Her legal team refused to give the therapists notes to the committee and refused to give the underlying documents for the lie detector test.

She even said I am sorry I can't remember the details. I was spot on.
