They just ruled on another case today (I believe) dismissing a enviromental lawsuit directed at halting the Border Fence. Problem is - they should never have heard it to begin with. The Border is the jurisdiction of the Legislative Branch of the Government. The Supremes have no business ruling on the Border. This seizing authority from the Executive and Legislative Branches needs to be halted.
This is the one area I'm really concerned about with an Obama Presidency. Just about anything else can be fixed - but if he picks 2-3 justices for the court it will be decades before it can be repaired.
