STATE courts are checked by STATE legislature! This is the FEDERAL legislature using the FEDERAL courts to OVERRULE the STATE courts. Put another way, is it your contention that any laws a state legislature passes, or rulings a state court makes, should be up for review by federal courts and/or the federal legislature? If your answer is "yes" then you are what has been historically called "a liberal" but what is now called conservative (like Australia). If your answer is "no" then you agree with me, favor State's rights, and are against "federal activists" <-- my new term. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:151269 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
