'sounds like a French horn (I'm referring to farts) that'll never stop, then abruptly does:]

Not advocating a parlimentary government—if you read on—but in one, they pass the laws, and then law enforcement and judges apply them. I'm not sure about other countries', but the USA's constituition needs to be amended so laws cannot get passed without pre-approval of the Supreme Court. It's imbecilic to wait for an unjust law to be challenged by a victim of its enforcement, instead of getting the court's approval BEFORE the unjustice occurred. Why would we let Senators, who are popularly voted in, decide what is just and right and good when there's an entire branch of the government that ultimately—and I'm referring to the Dude, sorry, I mean the Supreme Court, here—determibes what is just and right and good under the Constituition. Why call in the Justices after the fact?

[and here's that that often follows the aforetooted]

And if your answer is "it's a system of checks and balances," how about we only keep the checks and balances that don't defeat the values the document lays at its foundation.
