I guess we can blame the founders. Legitimately, there is only one course in removing a Supreme Court Justice, and that is Impeachment. It has only been used once in history versus a Justice, and he was acquitted by the Senate. I wonder if it were a smart thing to make it so hard to remove a Justice or a President since it would have probably been used way more than it has for purely ideological reasons.
It does seem like the court itself should have some power to deal with justices, but then that too would open up a can of worms. Can you imagine the Right wing majority not kicking off every liberal judge once Republicans had the WH and Senate?
