"The ongoing starvation of Terri Schindler Schiavo should be a disturbing reminder of what an out-of-control judiciary can do when the executive and legislative branches of government are slow to deal with it. Having come this far, both branches must boldly step forward and use the fullest extent of their powers to counter-balance this tyrannical judiciary." http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=43391

It's clear. Greer is part of a long line of judges who have snubbed the Constitutional protections. I have concern that the executive and legislative branches are once again giving too much power to just one more judge. What if the next one rules against Terri? Are these judges a god in whom we entrust all judgment? The founding fathers intended the judiciary to be the weakest branch, yet today it is exercising itself as the strongest.

Patrick Brady says, "Thomas Jefferson greatly feared an independent judiciary, and it came into existence only with the understanding that it would be the weakest branch with the primary purpose of protecting the will of the people from excesses of the other branches. Today the judiciary is the most powerful branch of government, divorced from and indifferent to the will of the people. Worse, it is engaged in the destruction of the values of our founders and their founding documents." http://www.cfa-inc.org/oldglory/ogn_jan_04frontlines.htm
