LewRockwell.com Blog: Re: Terri Schiavo Mess: "I was going to steer clear of this alternately heart-wrenching and infuriating fiasco, but while waiting to make Confession this morning I overheard two parishioners, saying, 'Did you see Tom Delay on the Schiavo issue? He was excellent!' I would have expected a bit more skepticism about our political leadership among Latin Mass Catholics, so therefore I wish to set the record straight.

The facts are thus: this is nothing but the lowest form of political ploy. There was legislation available at the beginning of last week -- and earlier -- that could easily have been modified to assuage the concerns of the Senate and acted upon far before the 'last minute.' Compromise was entirely possible before the feeding tubes were yanked from the suffering woman."
