Not entirely wrong?
"Early this morning, the House Government Reform Committee decided to launch an investigation into the case and issued subpoenas that order doctors and the administrator at the hospice facility in Pinellas Park, Fla., where the severely brain-damaged woman resides not to remove her feeding tube and keep her alive until the investigation is complete."

Congress enacted unusual legislation in the days before Schiavo's death in hopes of lending legal support to Schiavo's parents, who were *****seeking a federal court order to have their daughter's feeding tube reconnected.*** They were turned down at every level, including the U.S. Supreme Court, despite the measure that Bush signed quickly after it passed.

Taking the Senates lead, the House early Monday ****passed a bill to let the womans parents ask a federal judge to prolong Schiavos life by reinserting her feeding tube.***** President Bush signed the measure less than an hour later.

After a heated legal and political battle, the brain-damaged woman's feeding tube was removed Friday afternoon, despite a last-ditch effort by Congress to prevent it.
House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-Texas, said he and other Republicans in Congress will work through the weekend on legislation to force doctors to reinsert Terri Schiavo's feeding tube. (ABC News)

Sounds like DeLay's own remarks led to the idea that Congress meant to have the tube in?
Delay's actual statement, as reported by the same ABC news story is:
"A death row inmate has more of a process to go through than Terri Schiavo does," DeLay said earlier on ABC News' "Good Morning America" on Saturday. "All we're doing in Congress is giving Terri Schiavo an opportunity to come to the federal courts and review what this judge in Florida has been doing, and he's been trying to kill Terri for 4 1/2 years."There is nothing in Delay's statement about a "feeding tube", or "forcing doctors" to do anything. It is not Tom Delay's remarks that caused yet another example of typical ABC verbicide.
Cordially,
