"[A]s the Courts are generally the last in making the decision, it results to them by refusing or not refusing to execute a law to stamp it with its final character. This makes the Judiciary department paramount in fact to the Legislature, which was never intended, and can never be proper."
-- James Madison
(1751-1836), Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President
Very relevant in view of the SC's decision yesterday to let gay marriage rulings stand in 11 states!
