   I must have missed that day in Constitutional Law class where they taught us   
   where to find the Constitution's grant of power to the president that allows   
   him to just wake up one day and wave his hand like a Hogwarts wizard and fire   
   the Supreme Court.   
      
   I've just now reviewed Article II and I still don't see anything resembling   
   "The president shall have the power to dissolve the Supreme Court whenever it   
   pisses him off." Maybe it's written in that invisible ink that the NATIONAL   
   TREASURE movies teach us the Founders were so fond of.   
      
   Seriously, though, I'd understand if some green-haired, nose-ringed teenager   
   said this, because they're just a product of our public schools, but this   
   Lebowitz idiot is supposed to be a serious scholar, and *this* is how she   
   thinks our government runs?
