Another anti-court bill
by Decius at 12:03 am EST, Nov 5, 2004

] The Congress may, if two thirds of each House agree,
] reverse a judgment of the United States Supreme Court--
]
] (1) if that judgment is handed down after the date of the
] enactment of this Act; and
]
] (2) to the extent that judgment concerns the
] constitutionality of an Act of Congress.

Once again, these changes can only be accomplished by Constitutional amendment. Not by passing a law. This proposal would make Congress, and not the Constitution, the ultimate arbiter of law. It has 26 cosponsors.

So there are at least 26 people in Congress with no understanding of the Constitution. You seem surprised?
