"[It] is a moral poverty and a legal tragedy. This loss happened because our legal system did not protect the people who need protection most, and that will change. The time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior, but not today."Coincidently, Mr DeLay intends to use this same statement in response to the next editorial listing his many ethical crises.

My best friend's daughter is a sophomore at Kansas. She called her dad after the event and he immediately phoned me. Apparently what sent Coulter into a full-bore, spittle-flecked, incoherent rage was being asked, "So, Annie, what's actually larger, your Adam's apple or your dick?" My wife and kids slept through the ringing phone, but my ensuing laughter woke the entire house.'LOL.

Fun fact: Joining him for his townhall propaganda meetings is the pathetic, de-balled sellout John 'vagina' McCain, who has been thrust in the role of "playing the heavy for the president, sharply accusing Democrats of being obstructionist and shortsighted," according to CBS News.
Fun fact 2: Though Bush "insists he is making headway on the issue, the lingering skittishness among congressional Republicans — and outright opposition from most Democrats — indicates otherwise."
Fun fact 3: The Boy King may use executive order to enact his private accounts idea.
Fun fact 4: The WMD commission's final report has been released. Will the Goober actually take any questions regarding it, or will he "have to go to lunch"?

Conservative judge blasts Bush, Congress for role in Schiavo case
One of "the most conservative jurists on the federal bench" delivered a well-deserved cockpunch to Congress and Preznit Droolrag, in the form of a "stinging rebuke ."

A White House spokestool declined to address Birch's decision directly, saying the craven, vacuous meatpuppet in the WH is "saddened by this extraordinary case and continues to support all those who stand up to defend life." Unless that life belongs to a little black baby in Texas.

Birch went out of his way to castigate Bush and congressional Republicans for acting "in a manner demonstrably at odds with our Founding Fathers' blueprint for governance of a free people - our Constitution."
"This is a judge who, through a political or policy lens, falls pretty squarely in the Scalia/Thomas camp," said law professor and constitutional expert David Garrow. "I think it's a sad commentary that there wasn't a voice like his present in the Congress, because he's saying what a Republican constitutional conservative should be saying."

[The rev Jerry] Falwell, who hasn't told the truth in the last 40 years, was admitted to Lynchburg General Hospital shortly before midnight Monday suffering from "respiratory arrest," the hospital said in a statement.- Bartcop.

I had a student ask me, "Could the savior you believe in save Osama bin Laden?" Of course, we know the blood of Jesus Christ can save him, and then he must be executed.

Grown men should not be having sex with prostitutes unless they are married to them.
Billy Graham is the chief servant of Satan.

I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People for the American Way -- all of them who have tried to secularize America -- I point the finger in their face and say, "You helped this [the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001] happen."

The Secret Service revealed that we were "ID'ed" when local Republican staffers saw a bumper sticker on the car we drove which said "No More Blood For Oil." Evidently, the free speech expressed on one bumper sticker is cause enough to eject three citizens from a presidential event.

The parents of Terri Schiavo have authorized opportunistic ghouls a conservative direct-mailing firm to sell a list of their compassionate pro-lifers financial supporters, making it likely that thousands of strangers moved by her plight will receive a steady stream of solicitations from anti-abortion and conservative groups.
Pamela Hennessy, an unpaid spokeswoman for the Schindlers, said she was initially appalled when she learned of the list's existence.

One senior GOP lawmaker involved in the negotiations said DeLay, who is fighting ethics charges on several fronts, faced considerable pressure from Christian conservative groups to respond to pleas by Schiavo's parents. The lawmaker said many House Republicans were dubious and suspected the leader's ethics problems were a motivating factor.
Republican concerns grew, the senior House GOP lawmaker said, as a succession of federal judges, some of them conservative appointees, rejected Congress' entreaty. "A lot of members are saying, 'Why did you put us through this?' " said the lawmaker.

Heh. Eat it, m*therf*ckers.
The legal struggle over the fate of Terri Schiavo is exposing what some see as a credibility gap for the Bush administration, Republicans in Congress and social conservatives who want to rid the federal judiciary of so-called activist judges and even strip them of authority.
"Congress' desire to get a particular outcome led it to invite the courts to be activist, and the judges have properly refused," said Douglas Kmiec, a professor of constitutional law and a former Justice Department official in the Reagan and first Bush administrations.
Harvard law professor Charles Fried, another Justice Department official under Reagan, accused Bush and congressional Republicans of backsliding on their long-standing commitment to states' rights.
In their intervention in the Schiavo case, the Republicans embraced "the kind of free-floating judicial activism, disregard for orderly procedure and contempt for the integrity of state processes that they quite rightly have denounced and sought to discipline for decades," Fried wrote in the New York Times.
"We have the Congress of the United States acting as if they can disregard the Constitution in its entirety to get the result it wanted."

It's not over -
Congressional leaders have insisted their only motivation in getting involved in the Terri Schiavo case was saving a life. But Americans aren’t buying that argument, a CBS News poll finds.
An overwhelming 82 percent of the public believes the Congress and President should stay out of the matter. Just 13 percent of those polled think Congress intervened in the case out of concern for Schiavo, while 74 percent think it was all about politics.
Public approval of Congress has suffered as a result; at 34 percent, it is the lowest it has been since 1997, dropping from 41 percent last month. Now at 43 percent, President Bush’s approval rating is also lower than it was a month ago.

Where to begin. As a life long Republican, I am appalled that Congress would spend tax-payers money to return to Washington and attempt to usurp States' rights by injecting their opinion into a private, family, decision-making process. Furthermore, Dr. Frist violated his own medical ethics by making a diagnosis from a 4 year old video; since when can a physician make a diagnosis without physically examining the patient. The actions by the Republican leadership and congretional members are nothing more than political pandering to a special interest group... This hypocrisy in the name of political grand standing is appalling and provides an impetus for my voting to support Democratic Party members in the future elections.

"The passion play staged on Capitol Hill in the Terri Schiavo case was the Republican Congress at its opportunistic worst."
It revealed a conservative majority resorting to un-conservative behavior through its rejection of law and legal process. It provided a distraction for House Majority Leader Tom DeLay's mounting ethics problems and it served as a tonic for Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist's presidential aspirations.
All that one needs to know about why the Republicans enacted a special law... [t]he one-page message circulated to Republican senators by party leaders [calling] the Schiavo debate "a great political issue" to exploit against the Democrats.
