A Plan to Intimidate Judges the impeachment and removal of federal judges who issue rulings
that are objectionable to some conservatives has been very seriously
proposed by Representative Tom DeLay, one of the most powerful
members of Congress, and other right-wing extremists in the
Republican Party.

And Robert Bork, whose nomination to the Supreme Court by Ronald Reagan was blocked, has — even
more incredibly — called for a constitutional amendment that would allow decisions by federal and state
judges to be overruled by a simple majority in each house of Congress.
