  3. Supreme Court justices: The case for hanging it up

In almost every term, the justices exercise veto power over fundamental policy questions such as abortion, gun control and freedom of speech and religion.

But it was more than a generic fear of black helicopters (or black wheelchairs) that impelled 38 Republican senators to disrespect Bob Dole and oppose the treaty, depriving it of the required two-thirds majority.
