Rep Barney sums up the Schiavo debacle

Federal Court Hears Schiavo Case (washingtonpost.com)

Totally incompetent. Not much more to say about this.
Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) said it is foolish to think the bill will not become a legal precedent. 'Every aggrieved party in any similar litigation now will go to Congress, come to Congress and ask us to make a series of decisions,' he said. 'This is a terribly difficult decision which we are, institutionally, totally incompetent to make.'
Fortunately my wife has the technical skills to ensure that congress will not have to debate the placement of any future feeding tubes I may have.
