Congress's rash assumption of judicial power and trampling on established state and federal constitutional precedents in "right to die" cases is nothing short of breathtaking.

The hypocrisy on both sides is stunning. A complete roll reversal in political philosophies.

Liberals have finally discovered states' rights! Eureka! I'm sure it comes as music to the ears of long dead Southern racist governors.

Exactly. And, it was GOP showboating at its worst.

DeLay and Frist have known for six weeks that March 18 was zero hour. So what do they do?

They wait until March 17 to do something, when the media will be focused on their efforts.

And it's not going to work. This "subpoena" business was embarrassing, and futile.

The House should have passed the Senate bill, but DeLay was too insistent on having it his way.

Now, he may not get enough members back to even vote on a bill at all.

I have to agree with you on that. Conservatves pushing for expansion of federal powers and liberals talking about the trampling of states' rights. What a world we live in.
