I am not worried about that bill becoming law--the Congress can't pass a law that is exempted from judicial review--it wouldn't be a law then. would it? The Supreme Court is very protective of the balance of power, they do not look favorably on anything that would restrict their obligation to review the actions of the Federal Government and agents thereof.
However, the fact that Senators Brownback, Shelby, and Burr contrived such a document reflects either great cynicism on their parts, knowing that, though it had no chance of becoming law, or an effort to undermine the constitution--So either they are cynical oportunistic bastards, or treasonous bastards.
