Despite what you thought of the command, which was an effort to get Terri fed, Greer ignored it.

That is called Contempt of Congress.

I agree, that is Congress can have this go away in the dark of night, they would love to do so.

Though Greer in reality is in Contempt of Congress, I do think we lack the leadership to take him to task for it.

No it is not contempt of Congress unless a specific vote is taken on contempt which it will not dare do unless it is even dumber than I believe it is.

Congress can command me to flap my arms and fly there but that ain't going to happen either. I doubt that it has any authority to command one to make a third party available unless the party of the second part is hiding the third party.

Congress is guilty of grandstanding and should be ashamed of itself for getting involved in this circus.
