Thom Hartmann: Democratic Underground Readers are Wrong on SCOTUS

[bjobotts]

82. The SC thumbs their noses at this

The SC may not have the power according to the constitution but they are currently untouchable and act like kings doing whatever they like without accountability. They laugh at any who dare question anything they do. Just look at Thomas whose wife blatantly sells influence...or the Bush v Gore decision. Broccoli brain Scalia doesn't even bother to read what comes before the court anymore having already made his decision at the brfst. table.

We may not want a country like this but it's the country we have. Dysfunctional undemocratic senate with a filibuster controlled majority being dominated by a minority and a SC who overrules congress and we the people while remaining untouchable. Our only hope is throwing all the republicans out of office in 2012 and unpacking the conservative judiciary.
