Tom Delay go away

Speaker of the House Tom Delay is "warning" that the judges who ruled in the Terry Shiavo vase should beware since they went "against" the wishes of the Congress. Someone in the Republican party needs to sit on him hard. The system of checks and balances has worked for over 200 years now, why mess with it because someone didn't do what YOU wanted them to do? This is a slippery slope that once slid down it will be damn hard to get up from.

And Senate Majority LEader Frist (R-TN) is trying to make the Judicial appointees immune from a fillibuster, which means that the Republicans get to vote on who gets seated and then they are in. Meaning the Dems are out, again.
