Marbury vs Madison Not unconstitutional.
Patriot Act Yes I think this went beyond the confines of the Constitution
Every war since 1960. This too is not unconstitutional.
Citizens United. I agree with the opinion of the court. The decision was a compromise and IMHO struck a good balance.
"the fact that we keep a standing army at all is against the Constitution if it is longer than 2 years"
This is not a correct assessment of S1 A8 C12. Read it again and also read the entire section.
Marbury v Madison gave the courts quasi legislative powers.
the Constitution clearly states that legislation is to be done by the legislative branch (Congress) not the judicial branch
