The Republican nominated judges have forgotten why they were appointed. You see, the title they hold says it all. Judge. The very thing they singularly failed to do. They merely looked at the legalities of the issue, threw up their hands, and said "There is naught we can do! All i's have been dotted, all t's have been crossed!" Didn't matter that a woman was going to die. It was all legal.
The Justices on the SCOTUS are even more culpable. They are not called 'judge'. They are called 'justice', a much higher standard. One they failed to meet. The whole damn judiciary failed to deliver. Their apologists on this site say that they could only do what the Schindler's lawyers asked. Wrong. If that is all the judges were supposed to do, we could have a simple computer do it. We have people do it instead, because they purportedly have judgement. Something lacking here. Otherwise, the testimony of her friends would have been given equal weight to that of the Schiavos. It wasn't, so justice has fled.
Time to abolish all the inferior courts and start over. ALL of them. The Supremes we will have to wait on. They are the only ones we can't fire.

This is exactly what Hugh Hewitt and all the mumbo jumbo guys have been saying. It does not matter since "the rule of law" was followed, she can endure a tortured death under the rule of law. The "3rd Reich" judges have returned.
