Well, well. Looks like the same people who condemned Roy Moore as an Anarchist for refusing to obey an unconstitutional order are now defending Judge Greer's lawlessness.

House Majority Leader Tom DeLay pledged Friday to hold Florida state judge George Greer in contempt of Congress for ignoring a congressional subpoena for Terri Schiavo's testimony, saying, "No little judge sitting in a state district court in Florida is going to usurp the authority of Congress."

Perhaps, but I'll bet he'll still wait until Monday to do so, after Terri has been starving for three full days. If he does something tomorrow -- he's serious. If he waits until Monday -- he's just posturing for the cameras.

I heard the interview live on Hannity today and at one point Hannity played the statement by the lawyer who is apparently representing death. At one point the lawyer made the comment about 'artificially feeding' Terry through a tube in her stomach followed by demanding that she be allowed to die in peace.

I nearly jumped through the roof of my car I was so furious with those comments.

So? What does all that mean? Will they reinsert the feeding tube back into Terri? That's what I want to hear. I know the judge sitting in that court is little...in fact he is a speck but...what is going to be done to put the tube back so Terri can live?

So much for State's rights. Didn't conservatives used to believe in those?

Terri may die but God may yet bring good out of this disaster.

He may use it to open our eyes to the extent to which the contempt for life has spread in this country. This has shocked a lot of people. Starve a sick woman to death? No, never. This is America, for goodness sake.

Well it's happening. Right before our eyes.

At the end of all this, something may finally happen on the abortion front. For that is where all this originates. The decades-long contempt for the unborn and the suffering we've inflicted upon them has quietly insinuated itself into our culture and we've made our peace with it. Until something like this happens and we suddenly realize at what late stage of sickness we've arrived at.

Why be surprised? We crush the heads of infants as they are born and call it "freedom.".

Judge Greer has forgotten or is neglecting the fact that our Constitution acknowledges that our rights are not a gift of the government to be rationed out by petty bureaucrats and backwater judges. We are endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights.

This is another PASSION. The left is so anxious to nail her to the tree. Pray for her she has done nothing wrong, she is a true innocent in this whole rotten affair. May Greer, Felos, and Shiavo rot in hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll have to see this to believe it. Right now I think this is just rhetoric to calm conservatives who are very upset at what is happening. If Congress does indeed hold him in contempt, it will be a powerful message to other judges who think they can create their own law.

Still kind of fuzzy on where Congress gets the power to be dragging people in front of a committee for something that is beyond their constitutional authority.

The judge should be impeached. This judge thinks he's God!

Earlier in the day Judge Greer rebuffed the Schiavo subpoena, telling attorneys in the case, "I have had no cogent reason why the [congressional] committee should intervene."

One more evidence of the Imperial judiciary. President Bush should arrest the judge.

Pressed on whether he intended to hold Judge Greer in contempt, the top Republican told Hannity: "Absolutely, absolutely."

GOOD.

DeLay called a lawyer for Michael Schiavo, who has pressed for years to have his wife starved to death, "the personification of evil."

About time someone said it publicly.
