Constitutional amendment even though we need a super majority to do it, why don't we have the same guts to try to impeach the Supreme Court like the GOP tried to impeach Clinton, knowing they wouldn't succeed but determined to smack him around anyway?

Remember the 2000 election?

Why don't we start a movement to impeach the coup plotters of the Supreme Court?

Because we are a party of wimps hiding under the desk who don't have the BALLS that the other side has.




And while we're at it, why don't we stare down the filibusterers and bring in the cots the way Democrats used to, and ride out a filibuster the way we used to do?

If the GOP wants to filibuster why not ride it out and let them make fools of themselves reading endlessly from the telephone book etc. to keep the business of the Senate from moving forward? This is the age of C-span. Why don't we bring in the cots and keep everything going and let them obstruct and make fools of themselves instead of accepting defeat and moving on always?

Again, because we have become a party of wimps, afraid of our own shadow. We don't have the balls for a fight.
