That SHOULD be the function of the Federal Courts... but, we know how that rolls... :cry:


The Federal Courts can't be expected to wipe their own rear ends. I'd prefer they don't write yet another law that does not affect them directly. We have more than enough of those already, like that healthcare thing.


I think he meant the courts should be vigilant in applying the Constitution, particularly the 9th and 10th amendments. If I could go back to the founding fathers and convince them to change one thing in the Constitution it would be to make the 9th and 10th amendments the 1st and 2nd.
