" A federal appeals court ordered the Bush administration not to meddle with a state's assisted suicide law, ruling Wednesday that doctors in Oregon may prescribe lethal doses of medication to terminally ill patients.

Ruling on the nation's only law that allows doctors to assist in hastening the death of a patient, the court said U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft cannot sanction or hold Oregon doctors criminally liable for prescribing overdoses, as the state's voter-approved Death With Dignity Act allows.

"The attorney general's unilateral attempt to regulate general medical practices historically entrusted to state lawmakers interferes with the democratic debate about physician assisted suicide," wrote Judge Richard Tallman in the 2-1 opinion by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. He said Ashcroft's action "far exceeds the scope of his authority under federal law."

Sykk:

Honestly, honestly, honestly, as an employment lawyer I saw at least a dozen cases where abusive bosses were accused of farting (rank, odiferous, loud (or silent), gleeful farts) on, around, in the presence of female employees, and enjoying every minute of it. I got to the point where I wasn't even surprised at this allegation anymore....

It is hard to make a "Hostile Work Environment" case out of hot air alone (pun intended) but be careful farting on those models. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

If we can persuade Ashcroft to move to Oregon, then maybe we can all "assist" him a little! :moon:

Heard the recap on NPR yesterday afternoon, it's about time someone told Ashcroft where his place in relationship to state and federal law, as well as jurisdiction, actually is.
