The local left whacks out over Schiavo.

The loyal opposition blog rants about how the Schiavo vote in Congress (which I did not and do not support, BTW) was a "Republican" plot.

"The reckless Republicans have gone too far this time," they bleat.

Well, let me set the record straight: About one-half of all democrats present also voted FOR this bill... including our own Brian Baird. Does that make BRIAN a "reckless Republican?"

This post illustrates the finest the ultra-left has to offer. Name calling, failing to address ALL the facts... and blaming ONLY Republicans for the Congressional vote... without including the democrats who ALSO supported the bill!

Typical. All too typical.

And, by the way? I don't believe Republicans were damaged with this vote... and for the leftist nut jobs blowing a valve on this issue? Enjoy your wishful thinking.

CBS poll: 82 percent say stay out of Schiavo matter

An overwhelming 82 percent of the public believes the Congress and President should stay out of the matter.
