Congress v. The courts

Unfortunately, Terri Schiavo will shortly die. My prayers are with her and her family. I'm sure all of us, in our hearts, would have preferred a different outcome.

However, personal and moral issues aside, what are the legal issues? On his blog, CREDITWRENCH CEO Bill Bauer states:

United States Congress has the power to ....... tell the U.S.
Supreme Court how it must rule

The Schiavo case proves otherwise. While Congress establishes the law, the courts have final say in all matters of law; that is dicated by the US Constitution.

CREDITWRENCH CEO Bill Bauer stating that Congress has the power to tell the courts how they must rule on matters of law is false and misleading.

Again, my heart and prayers go out to Terri and her family.
