Pelosi: ‘DeLay’s Vilification of Judges is Unworthy of a Leader of a Major Political Party’
“Majority Leader Tom DeLay’s participation in this weekend’s Justice Sunday II is troubling. Mr. DeLay’s vilification of judges is unworthy of a leader of a major political party.
“Our nation’s leaders should cherish an independent judiciary – a concept we promote around the world as the foundation for the rule of law and the protection of individual rights. Instead, Mr. DeLay has shown nothing but contempt, most notably when he crudely threatened the federal judges who refused to do his bidding in the Terri Schiavo matter: ‘The time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior.’
“Our nation’s leaders must value the fundamental principle of an independent judiciary, not try to undermine our system of government.”
“ Democrats are united in presenting a New Direction for America, one that will make our nation as strong as its people, one that brings opportunity, security, and prosperity to all Americans. ”
Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi
