But before the right goes too far down the road of outrage over
"judicial activists" who have ruled against Terri Schiavo's parents, it
ought to take a head count of the federal judges who have had an
opportunity to rule on the case so far. The U.S. Supreme Court declined
to intervene in the case before Congress involved itself. Among the nine
justices on the Supreme Court, seven were appointed by Republican
presidents, just two by Democrats. After Congress intervened in the
Schiavo case over the weekend, the case was heard by one U.S. District
Court judge, a Democratic appointee. Then 12 judges on the U.S. Court of
Appeals had had their say -- six appointed by Democratic presidents, six
by Republicans. All together, then, 22 federal judges have had a hand in
bringing the Schiavo case to where it is today. Thirteen of them were
appointed by Republicans; just nine were appointed by Democrats. If the
solution to an "out of control" federal judiciary is putting more
Republican nominees on the bench, then the Schiavo case -- like the
legal disputes over gay marriage -- isn't much evidence of that.

But, Jimcomma, just think....

If the case had been heard by Democratically appointed judges, why they
would have required that she be kept alive for ever, just to create a
continuing drain on the treasury as well as a need for bigger
government and more taxation!

At least the Repuiblican judges said, "it's up to everybody to shift
for themselves, without any socialist help from society in
general".......(er, that *is* what they said, right.....oh,
no.....wait........)

You continue to make it a left vs right issue. That, my friend, is not
the issue, although the left has chosen to make it so.

Did you listen to the interviews from the link I posted? What are your
comments on the interviews?

Here again is the link.

I've yet to hear anyone on the right refer to the previous judges as 'political
activists'. *That* is more bull****.

The above makes no mention of "activist judges" The reference comes
from the right wing mantra; chanted whenever they don't get what they want.

Well, excuse the **** out of me! I should have said "judicial activists" which
are much, much different from 'activist judges'.
