The House Government Reform Committee canceled a hearing, which had been hastily arranged as a means to stop Schiavo's feeding tube from being removed.

Are all those subpoenas to Terri Schiavo and her relatives meaningless?

A "little judge" from a state local court stoop up to Congress, and Congress blinked. Am I missing something here? How doesn't Congress vote to hold the state judge in contempt?

Why happened to Delay's threat?

DeLay Pledges Contempt Charge for Terri Judge

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."

"The Congress will pursue this, if we have to hold him in contempt of Congress," DeLay told radio host Sean Hannity.

The Congress passed a law asking teh Feds to review the case - the Feds did and upheld the case. End of story.
