WIS News 10 - Columbia, South Carolina | Kennedy criticizes Schiavo comments by House Republican leader
Member Center:
(Capitol Hill-AP) March 31, 2005 - Senator Ted Kennedy is telling House Majority Leader Tom DeLay to watch his mouth.
DeLay is blaming Terri Schiavo's death on what he calls an "arrogant and out-of-control judiciary" that ignored congressional attempts to intervene. The Texas Republican says "the time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior."
Kennedy calls those comments "irresponsible and reprehensible," in the wake of the killings of a federal judge's husband and wife and the murder of an Atlanta judge.
The Massachusetts Democrat says DeLay needs to be clear that he's not advocating violence against judges in the Schiavo case, some of whom have received threats.
Other Republicans also blame the judiciary, with Senator Rick Santorum calling the actions of Florida courts and the Supreme Court "unconscionable."
