When I read stuff like
this.
Congress is once again trying to exert its constitutional powers to limit court jurisdiction, but they are trying to do so in a stealth manner.
What happened in
Hamden should be denounced from the rooftops if Congress doesn't want it to happen again. Where is the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee? He is so concerned about a President of his own party trying to usurp Congressional perogatives, but is silent when the Supreme Court does so in a plainly unconstitutional ruling. He was so concerned about the power of
stare decisis when the confirmation of conservative justices might threaten Roe, but he is silent when five lawless justices ignore the plain meaning of the Constitution and
previous supreme court rulings (at least three).
