"One single object...[will merit] the endless gratitude of the society:
that of restraining the judges from usurping legislation." --Thomas
Jefferson (The Federalist.com)
"The Judiciary of the United States is the subtle corps of sappers and
miners, constantly working under ground to undermine the foundations of
our confederated fabric. They are construing our Constitution from a
co-ordination of a general and special Government, to a general and
supreme one alone." --Jefferson
(THE NATIONAL ERA
April 21, 1859
Washington, D.C., Vol. XIII No. 642 P. 61)
