re: "Andrew McCarthy: Gingrich Has It Right On Our 'Imperial' Courts"

GW at Wolf Howling commented on some proposed Constitutional tinkering.

Money quote(s):

"Conservatives have been shaking their fists impotently at the Courts for their judicial activism - their Poliburo like unilateral amendments to the Constitution working fundamental changes to our nation - for the past fifty years. Heretofore, the only solution to the problem was thought to be electing Presidents who will appoint judges grounded in originalism. That has been less than successful. Enter Newt Gingrich, who has completely changed the paradigm on this critical issue. He wants to make a systemic fix that will permanently restore the Constitutional balance between the three branches of our government as such balance was envisioned by the Founders."

So, what's this all about?

"Andrew McCarthy, reviews Newt Gingrich's plan to redress the balance."

GW concluded:

"Correcting this vast overreach by our Courts over the past half century, restoring the balance to that envisioned by our Founders, is crucial for the future of our nation."
