Sen. Sam Brownback is touring Iowa this weekend with Bobby Schindler, the brother of the late Terri Schiavo, whose case created an uproar when some lawmakers in Congress, including Brownback, intervened to try to prevent her husband from removing life support.
This interference with what should have been a painful, personal family decision was a distinct low point for Congress -- and polls showed Americans overwhelmingly disapproved of the grandstanding by right-to-life lawmakers such as Brownback.
It’s hard to see how bringing up this shameful episode will broaden Brownback’s appeal.
