I’ve felt that way for a long time too. God judged George and Jeb very harshly because they didn’t stand up for Life. If you’re truly pro-life you’re pro-life in ALL circumstances.
I am sorry for his family, and do not wish this illness on anyone. But, having said that, I can not help but feel that he has suffered as he fought for Terri to suffer.
Make no mistake. God is a God of justice.
Mike Schiavo and Judge Greer had better sit up and take notice.
Apparently he does not have a lot of mourners here on Free Republic.
I'm sure Senator King would be happy that people are bashing Free Republic in his name.
Well, it wasn’t “letting” her die. It was killing her. She was denied food and water. That is murder.
ughhh... no more bushes. the roots are all rotted in that family tree.
A feisty, plainspoken figure, King gained some national attention when he helped lead a group of Republicans who blocked legislation favored by Bush that would have forced Schiavo’s feeding tube to be reinserted.
Prayers...
“What’s ironic is that you are taking pleasure is another person’s death and his family’s pain. Very Christ-like right there.”
It’s even worse on the Michael Jackson threads. Some people seem to forget that we don’t know the hearts of other people and may very well find ourselves sharing eternal life with those who, in life, we seem to hate.
If you would have read Christopher Reeve’s book, you would know that his mother was fighting him and his wife to pull the respirator on him. She didn’t think it was right for a young man who lived life so fully, to have to live unmovable and on a breathing machine.
She was wrong. Reeve still had a lot of living to do. It was NOT what he wanted, to die. Even though her idea would have seemed to be what Reeve would have wanted.
Even our closest relatives can not speak to our true desires on life...how could you speak for Terri?
Terri had the right to life, under the United States Constitution. She was valuable to her family, friends and strangers like me.
She did not do anything to deserve such a cruel death sentence; such a torturous death. She deserved to be protected from cruelty, not killed by the politicians like King for political gain.
I absolutely agree. It must be the tin-headedness of Bush’s, to be so consistently dense & out of touch with reality. Well actually nearly all politicians suffer from the same malady.
Did you show your daughter the posts from so-called “Christians” celebrating the brutal murder of Terri Schiavo? Or is your self-righteous indignation selective?
Are you willing to bet that all victims of brutal murders are thankful to their tormentors? Are you willing to bet your soul on it?
Wouldn't it be more appropriately termed the right-to-kill Terri Schiavo battle in 2005? Since, I seem to recall, she wasn't the one asking to be starved to death. Did I miss something here?
It's not as it once was, is it? All the best.
I haven’t visited here in a while. This thread explains perhaps why.
