The War on Terri Part V
So now Michael Schiavo isn't letting anybody visit the scene of the crime.
The Senate passes "Terri's Law", but House Democrats, ever sticklers for procedure when it permits murder, block consent without objection and force the GOP leadership to call members back on Palm Sunday.
Andrew McCarthy, one of the stalwarts on this story, asks a question we all should be asking.
It's funny how the Democrats thought non-lethal, non-disfiguring "torture" techniques used against terrorists at Abu Ghraib should have shamed the U.S. before all the world, but have no trouble whatsoever torturing to death an innocent, disabled woman.
It's funny how the Democrats had no problem using federal troops to resolve an illegal immigration case in Florida by raiding a private citizen's home and removing a child at gunpoint at their buddy Fidel Castro's request, but now think that Congress and the President attempting to save a woman's life over the wishes of one Florida judge is an abuse of power.
It's funny how the Democrats had no difficulty with incinerating Americans in their Waco religious compound on behalf of "the children" (many also suffocated and burned to death), but won't lift a finger to help a disabled woman on "federalism" grounds.
It's funny how on issue after issue, the Democrats stand for life for the guilty and death for the innocent.
It's funny how situations like these reveal character or the lack of same.
