Bush Signs Bill That May Let Schiavo Live(Interfering with the liberty to terminate a spouse’s life without effective judicial review might just lead to limitation of the supremely declared rights of the penumbra: “privacy” and “choice”.)
47 Democrats voted in favor, 53 against and 102 did not vote [[not broken down between abstentions and absences]]; [ ... ]
Many Democrats who opposed the bill said the congressional vote placed lawmakers in the middle of issues best left to state courts and family members.
"Today, congressional leaders are trying to appoint Congress as a judge and jury," said Rep. Jim Davis, D-Fla. "If we do not draw the line in the sand today, there is no limit to what democratic principles this Congress will ignore or what liberties they may trample on next."
Those who chose death this day will be remembered.
It is Holy Week, after all, and some appear to be saying “What is truth?”.
