Everyone is aware of how the court uses their position to make law rather than interpret it. The Democrats have used this to promote their agenda for years. The liberals could get laws passed in the court that would never get passed the legislature. The people of this country, therefore, have given up their right to vote on legislation if the court is deciding for them as to how this country is governed.
It seems to me that the conservatives have gone over the edge in their tirades condemning Miers. It also seems that they want to change the court so they can legislate their agenda.
What do the conservatives want? A knock down, get bloody fight with the liberals over this thing more than they want someone that will actually interpret the law as set down by the Constitution? I am confused -
I also know that the Republicans have waited for decades to change the court and that these nominations will be for life - President Bush has the chance to nominate more people to the court than just about any other President in history - the conventional wisdom is he will be able to select at least two more to the court. If he is true to his word, than the court would not side with either party. The majority of the judges that sit on the court would use a strict interpretation in deciding what is constitutional and what is not. Isn't that how it is suppose to work?
This would not sit well with the puppet masters in that they don't see any other way to get their agenda before the people because Democrats loose most election and therefore have a minority position in the national legislature. When the puppet masters make the Democrats dance they want them to be the headliners, not the warm-up act.
At the same time, I don't see how this would effect the Democrats due to the spineless Republican always seem to cave to pressure form the left - What is that all about anyway - that is another thing that confuses me -
