This challenge, by the Bush administration, is just wrong. Not to mention going about it the wrong way. The Oregon law essentially allows the doctor to prescribe lethal doses of medication for patients with known terminal diseases once they are understood to be within 6 months of the end. The challenge uses the Controlled Substances Act to try and make this illegal.
This blocking of a completely reasonable law is bad enough, but using a law about illicit drug trafficking is just lame.
