People today have been told so many times that the Court has the final say. About what, may I ask?
Certainly the Court has no authority to make law by issuing edicts, because the very first sentence in our Constitution lets us know that all legislative powers granted by the Constitution belong to the Congress. Read it yourself; Article I, Section1.
Unless we are to believe that our Constitution no longer exists, the Constitution is the Supreme law of the land, not what some judge, or panel of judges would decide. You see, none of them are elected, and we, the people, are granted the right to elect our governing members. You may see just what the role of the Supreme Court is by reading Article III. All other federal courts have been created by Congress in accordance with the power granted in Article I, Section 8. That part of the Constitution enumerates the powers granted to the government. Those sentences limit the power of the government, friends! If Congress is given the power to create federal courts, then it also has the power to regulate, or even abolish, those courts.
Even the power to review laws written by Congress was assumed by the Supreme Court in the case of Marbury v Madison, 1803. The Court ruled that certain portions of the Judiciary Act were unconstitutional because they tended to change the meaning of the Constitution. The Constitution may be changed only through the use of the amendment process, the Court ruled.
In 1937, when Roosevelt wanted Congress to increase the members of the Supreme Court to 15, he told them he would use the decisions of the Court to "streamline government" and "make it more progressive". Only in those days, "progressive" was another word for socialistic.
The Constitution says that the Congress has the power to declare war. There is no asterisk which says the president may declare war, yet the War Powers Act gives him the power to use our troops in a conflict for 60 days without asking Congress for permission. (And Clinton violated that law when he bombed Serbia!) Would you say that violates that Constitution?
Actually, even after Pearl Harbor, FDR asked Congress to declare war. There has been no declaration of war since that time, December 8th, 1941.
Give that idea some serious thought.
