The republican movers and shakers in Congress need to get a grip and look at how hysterical they are becoming, over something they have no business getting into.   They're looking more like democrats as each day goes on, over the last 2 or 3 days.   Quit with the feelgood actions already.  Your good intentions are trampling the privacy and personal decisions of a family unit.

They're acting like democrats when they say they are fighting to save a life.  Sounds good, but the one they're talking about is already taken care of, by her husband, and doesn't need saving.  But, who could be against saving lives?  Now they are beating their chest, going to make a law that will make it legal for them to get involved in the, shall we say,  disposition of the body.  Just a bit grotesque.

The larger picture is how this behavior will affect the politics of it all?  It looks like a golden opportunity for the republican party to fracture.  A dream come true, for democrats.   Third parties lose, especially after shooting themselves in the foot.

Congress needs to butt out.  

Congress Aims to Pass Schiavo Legislation. Congress Tries to Pass Legislation Allowing Federal Court Review of Brain-Damaged Woman's Case.  {Yeah?  And then what?}
