It's not like there isn't precedent for it. Andrew Jackson did it. FDR threatened to do it, but the Supreme court caved to his demands to avoid it. There's no way we're going to let these judges decide our fate for the next 50 years. Eventually we'll get someone with the balls to stack the court. I'd also support term limits, but that would be allot harder to pass as it would require a constitutional amendment.
