I wonder, if Senator Leahy was so "outraged," by Congress's intervention in the Terri Schiavo case, then why didn't he voice any of these objections to his Dem. colleagues, the vast majority of whom agreed with the people that were perpetrating this "outrage?"
All Leahy had to do was object to the unanimous consent request, and the whole thing would have been shut down. There was no vote scheduled in the senate, and with a single objection it would have been out of order and Leahy could have allowed Shiavo to be killed the way he wanted her to be.
