Congressional Idiocy: HR3073
Remember that pledge by some radicals to "reign in judicial activism"? Well, here comes the "Congressional Accountability for Judicial Activism Act of 2005". (a.k.a. H.R. 3073)
Make no mistake this bill would give Congress the power to overturn decisions of the Supreme Court. Yes, I swear, you can't make this shit up. And the bill already has fifteen co-sponsors! If you live in one of their districts, you should definitely place a call or write a letter to let them know that you, um, still believe in the Constitution and checks on power!
Ernie equates this bill to legislative "spam". I'm more in line with Terry who says, "In my humble opinion, this is not just a bad bill. It�s immoral, unethical and down right terrifying."
