NOW THE SUPREME COURT IS IN TROUBLE, TOO

October 31, 2006

From today's Tax Analysts online ($link):

Sixteenth Amendment. The Supreme Court has denied Bill Walker's petition for review of a Ninth Circuit decision, affirming a district court's dismissal of his suit against the members of Congress, the Treasury Secretary, and the Commissioner of the IRS for lack of jurisdiction. Walker alleged that they were criminally and civilly liable for failing to call a constitutional convention to consider the repeal of the 16th Amendment and the federal income tax. Walker v. Members of Congress et al., No. 05-35023 (9th Cir. May 22, 2006); S. Ct. Dkt. No. 06-244.

This must mean the Supremes are now "criminally and civilly liable" too. I bet they're scared.
