I'm pretty sure Host brought this to my attention, which means it's probably already on TFP somewhere.

I'm surprised you're so frustrated with me when it's clear you aren't doing your homework on this one.

You apparently think that checks and balances is actually one branch choosing the leadership of another branch, blatantly choosing people who would agree with them instead of unbiased people.

You think that the supreme court hasn't dealt with school segregation, big oil (can you say exxon oil spill?) or even any big corporations.
