1. Wow. So much for checks and balances.

These (free staters? tea partiers?) people know no boundaries.

2. Um, isn't that the way it already works?

Last I checked the Supreme Court is the final say on judicial acts already. Now the legislature determining the constitutionality of legislative acts is somewhat questionable. It seems to be a conflict of interest if they get to rule on their own actions. I think that's why the founding fathers set up executive and judicial branches to reign in the legislature.

Maybe all these people should have to take a course or two in the freaking Constitution and how it was written at a time when a king and the church ruled over everyone. Gees, freedom. What a concept.

4. The point being that the courts would be barred from ruling on the constitutionality of laws passed

by the legislature. So, for example, the clearly unconstitutional proposals (there are several) to introduce religious bullshit into the school curriculum, would be outside the purview of the less insane courts.

3. Insane clown car!

Obviously they intend to undo tri-partate government in favor of rule by loonislature. Hmmm... I feel another letter to the editor is in order. I don't know where this ends up, but if these clowns are not voted out it is not going to be good. My wife just wants to leave the state, and she, unlike me is a Democratic activist in our local party organization.
