About damn time
This CBS article says that Congress took a hit to their approval rating over the grandstanding they did about the Terri Schiavo situation last weekend.
Public approval of Congress has suffered as a result; at 34 percent, it is the lowest it has been since 1997, dropping from 41 percent last month. Now at 43 percent, President Bush’s approval rating is also lower than it was a month ago.

I happened to catch the Daily Show today and a devoted nearly their entire opening "news" section to this controversy. I loved Jon Stewart's comments that if he had his choice, the only thing he would unplug would be the top news outlets, i.e., CNN, MSNBC, and yes, Fox.
Fox was especially egregious in its coverage of this whole affair, going so far as to bring that psychic guy from that "Crossing over" or whatever show. Disgusting.

Here's another ugly wrinkle in this whole ugly story... the split between Michael Schiavo and the Schindlers may not be over Terri, but over money.
