Maybe that's why he and Tommy J stopped talking all those years.
Not really. Perhaps some outside reading might better educate you.

John Adams was perhaps our first liberal president, and we're still paying the very very high price!!
As a high Federalist liberal he (along with Washington and Hamilton)* believed in Platonic elite central govt ruling over the drooling masses. He appointed John Marshall to the Supreme Court who gave us Marbury v. Madison which established judicial review. Thus, 9 unelected fools for life in black robes can tell the other two branches of govt what laws they will accept. This is why all hell will break out if Judge Ginsburg dies. Everyone knows another conservative on the court will mean the entire govt of the United States is conservative. Obviously, the Supreme Court was intended to be just a co-equal* branch of a limited central govt sharing power with the states.*

215 years later and Republicans are still crying about Marbury v Madison.
The frustrated GOP is doomed.

What would Republicans problem be with Marbury?
Judicial review.
Marbury did not create judicial review.
I didn't say it did. Article 3 created judicial review. But you asked why Marbury v Madison was a problem for them. My answer was/is on the money.
Have a great day.
That still makes no sense. Marbury only substantiated the limit of the Supreme Court. Article III was never mentioned in Marbury.

totally wrong!! Jefferson and Madison formed the Republican party in 1793 when they finally understood how much Hamilton and Federalists were for big govt. This was the Second America Revolution. Adams was just one Federalist among many!
It didn't have to be. When established what exactly did you think the court would do?
As for the gop Marbury neurosis? All I had to do was quote the op.
I didn't make that up. Here it is again:
I am not addressing the OP vis-a-vis Republicans.
I am as Marbury is settled law. It was argued 215 years ago. The only reason to bring it up now is that the OP made it the centerpiece of his whiny, fanciful post.
Perhaps he is willing to argue it with you.
I'm not willing to anymore than I am willing to debate that somehow Jefferson was a Republican 50 years before the freaking GOP was actually established as James972 claims.
Some self-serving anti-intellectual arguments are not worth having.
Revisionist history is not good faith posting.
I am not arguing the OP because I do not fully agree with it.
If Marbury is settled law, 90% of the cases the Supreme Court hears today would not be granted cert.
Demographics had hate party in the history books in three decade , they elect scum bag now they have one till they are toast.215 years later and Republicans are still crying about Marbury v Madison.
The frustrated GOP is doomed.
Only 1% or so of cases are granted a writ of certiorari anyway...
I am referring to the cases they grant cert. If Marbury was settled law, 90% of the federal judiciary would be eliminated because 90% of federal law would not exist.
What a wonderful example of uneducated low intellect primitive thinking.John Adams was perhaps our first liberal president, and we're still paying the very very high price!!

Marbury v Madison has been settled law for 215 years.
Nonsense. The first Republican president was Lincoln.

Your usual moronic question does not impress but it demonstrates the point that so many have made about your inane posts.if true you would not be so afraid to say why. What do you learn from your fear?
