Rather than see a therapist, I think we will vote for different candidates in the next round of elections. YIf you want to insult the people you need to convince to vote for your candidates, that's not the way to do it. You can take what you consider to be the moral high ground, but don't forget that Greer, a Republican (to some a RINO, but not to all) was re-elected on the Schaivo case by 65% of the county vote even with his opponent outspending him 421 to 1.

The government set up the court system to operate impartially. The government can change the laws the courts rule upon, but they have no business trying to legislate the specific outcome in a specific case involving a specific individual. Otherwise, why have courts? We can just let politicians decide court cases for us. If this is the direction the Republican party wants to take, they will lose elections. The moderate middle, whose voices have been outshouted and demonized, even here on FR, will be voting their thoughts in the next election. Would you rather have a split GOP that allows the democrats and the likes of Hillary getting into power?

Are you claiming this was done and by whom? Certainly not the Federal legislature, who only asked for a Federal court to review the case anew. Do you mean the State government? I can also see how this may be some exaggeration on your part, though.
