No, I'm not talking about the Motown act. I'm talking about our supercilious and vastly overrated Supreme Court. Klayman nails it in this recent piece.
I would argue, however, that the Founders did not really intend for this body to have so much power. Here is the real history of Marbury v. Madison. By the way, even though that decision went in President Jefferson's favor, he was later to remark "The constitution, on this hypothesis, is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary, which they may twist and shape into any form they please."
As to the so-called "Landmark cases," check this out.
