One of the things he discusses is due process. Something the liberals in our midst fail to understand is that words have meaning. I realize "due" is just a tiny little three-letter word, but it still means something. If you remove it, the meaning changes. Process and due process are not the same. Shuffling papers and rubber-stamping your colleague's decisions does not constitute due process, no matter how many times that is done.

From the Fifth Amendment, surely, where it says that no one may be deprived of life without due process.

"Due process" is a ritual utterance of the right-to-die mantra. In this case it tries to excuse murder. The visitors almost literally chant the words, asserting that Terri got more due process than anyone in history, blah blah. But as you say, it was not due process. Amos was full of contempt for the deceitful "process" Terri received, saying forcefully that NO due process was possible to execute an innocent citizen.

I am equally full of contempt for the way George Greer manipulated process. He was flagrantly prejudiced. Since his intentional misconduct resulted in the death of an innocent citizen, I see no reason he isn't liable to charges of murder. There should be no judicial immunity for this.
