I'm surprised right wingers don't want Marbury v. Madison overturned, seeing as they always cry about judicial activism and going against the will of the majority.

You have to wear your seatbelt when you operate a motor vehicle, it's communism I tell you, communism!
Well, one decision of the Supreme Court that was clearly wrong at the time it was made,and continues to be wrong today, is Hans v. Louisiana. Unfortunately I don't anticipate it will ever change.
