STACKING THE COURT WHEN THINGS AREN'T GOING THEIR WAY

Liberals will stop at nothing, folks . . . nothing.

Not only does a left wing writer in the New York (Leftist) Times support adding a few liberals to the US Supreme Court, but he also goes on to threaten the current court because they aren't being activist enough! Dig:

"Still, there is nothing sacrosanct about having nine justices on the Supreme Court. Roosevelt’s 1937 chicanery has given court-packing a bad name, but it is a hallowed American political tradition participated in by Republicans and Democrats alike.

If the current five-man majority persists in thumbing its nose at popular values, the election of a Democratic president and Congress could provide a corrective. It requires only a majority vote in both houses to add a justice or two. Chief Justice John Roberts and his conservative colleagues might do well to bear in mind that the roll call of presidents who have used this option includes not just Roosevelt but also Adams, Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln and Grant."

Aren't those liberals something else?
