"No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto law shall be passed." US Constitution.
The 11th hour bill passed and signed last night to stop the Schiavo ruling from being carried out clearly violates this portion of the Constitution.
The Schaivo ruling had been made previously and was already being carried out. The Constitution specificly forbids retro-active laws like this Congressional bill to stop the previous Schaivo ruling.
Politics has taken precident over law once again in order to score political points. Its a grand and classic strategy "Tug on the heart strings and the people will forget themselves and the law." - and its working beautifully.[&:]
in this case: they did the right thing.... NOONE should be put to death for being incapacitated....the courts over stepped their bounds by ordering her off LS. What's next...Hitlers' remedies being adapted ??? The "Law" has infringed too much on personal liberties from I've seen over the past 48 years. Courts and Lawyers suck.
No matter if you agree or not the Constitution must be followed Congress has now broken the law and if it were you or I we would be punished. Another giant step for Big Brother and another trashing of the LAW.
