A public rally outside, then? When is legal, immoral and wrong? And where is the governor on this? A bold stand by Jeb, even if he's not running for 2008, would bolster a lot of Americans in the most productive way. He could call out the guard to protect her, set up a perimeter around the facility. Unlikely - SURE. But I think since 'the system' is said to be the entire norm, here, that he high up in 'the system', simply for that reason, is almost dutibound to intervene! If 'the system' demands that public outcry fall on their deaf ears, then it does put the responsibility for this on the governor to stop such a travesty from being done.
Prayers for Terri.

WHAT THE HELL?!
HERE'S A CLUE FOR THE "LAWMAKERS"
, THERE IS THIS THING CALLED "STAYING AFTER WORK," "OVERTIME", "GETTING THE JOB DONE NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES".
MOST OF US WHO LIVE AND WORK IN THE REAL WORLD, ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE CONCEPT OF MEETING A DEADLINE-AND IN TERRI'S CASE IT IS QUITE LITERALLY A "DEADLINE"-TERRI WILL END UP DEAD IF YOU DON'T MEET IT.
IT'S CALLED EFFORT. DO US ALL A FAVOR AND MAKE AN EFFORT WILL YA?
(Sheeeeeeeeesh-pulling hair out in frustration )
While I do applaud the effort that has been made by the legislators who put this together, it sounds like there are some who "don't get it" about Terri. they are the ones who need to make an EFFORT to save Terri's life , and they need to act NOW.
Bump for Terri
This is for all the fine people on freerepublic who helped me and stood by me, and for all the miserable newbee trolls and the longer term freeper-sleepers who have so delighted in the misery of this event that they harass any who defend Terri.
If there are these many good people and this many attackers, we must be on to something really epic in the battle of good and evil. The freeper-sleepers had no idea, I bet, how much they inspired me and how they convinced me we were on the right track and need to step up and be counted.
It all comes as people of my faith approach Palm Sunday and Holy Week. Events unfold as the torments began in Mel Gibsons The Passion. At this time for all good and decent people, we are charged to stand up to evil, either that or shield our eyes from it and go about our business.
We can go into this season looking forward to Easter feasts, or contrite and repentant and determined to stand up to evil. We all have our own talents to bring to bear. People of my own faith can wear out a few sets of Rosary beads. All can pray.
Some are great at coordinating, as I have found so well. Others are great at contacting, getting out the word. Some look for credit, others work behind the scenes hardly noticed by us other mortals. We can all do something to help.
Some of us have the opportunity to go there, to Pinellas Park to confront the evil head on, to give support to Terri and her family and friends, to help out. I can. I hope in this category there are lots of us. Please join with me if you can.
I am on my way now, and hope to arrive to meet a burgeoning crowd of other freepers standing firm for Terri.
At the end of the day I pray that each of us here can say to Our Lord, today we did our best for Terri.

BTTT!

From video Terri Big Eyes; see it at www.terrisfight.org-- http://www.terrisfight.org/
Terri starts out apparently asleep. A doctor wakes her to start his tests.
Doctor: Terri. Open your eyes up...
Terri: (Startled at hearing her name. She starts moving her mouth and fluttering her eyes, like a person who is just waking up)
Doctor: Open your eyes, Terri open your eyes
Terri: (slowly at first, Terri struggles to open her eyes, then turns toward the doctor, and opens her eyes a normal amount)
Doctor: There you go, good.
Terri: (then, either to show off(?) or wanting to perform well, she leans further forward toward the doctor, looks straight at him and opens her eyes as WIDE AS SHE CAN. >> Note the WRINKLES ACROSS HER FOREHEAD caused by her also RAISING HER EYEBROWS as high as possible )
Doctor: [now obviously impressed] GOOD!! GOOD JOB! GOOD JOB YOUNG LADY! Good Job.
