Unelected motherfuckers should not decide anything about the Constitution

Elections have consequences is a bullshit, strawman argument.

And where the fuck has DoJ been since 1996 when Justice Clarence/Ginni met Crow? Is bribery not a crime anymore?

And the hallmark of any civilized society is correcting past mistakes.

This court, at least the Sinister Six, has been a mistake since the handmaiden was press ganged into service.

No one would appoint a 40 year old, and they rarely lived past 65-72. All that is out the window now.

Just doing a cursory reading on the intense study these men, and surprisingly for the times women, put into their lives is astounding. For reference read or reread, "Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln."

And don't just go to the Cliff Notes movie.
