And your post is in reply to what, exactly?
Nothing in particular. Just like to remind folks every now and then.
Why don't you take your pro-choice, pro-death of the innocent, liberal talking trash away from here!!
So, you're reduced to putting words in my mouth, eh? Weak...
My sense of humor is in top shape as well as my sense of fairness and right and wrong.
Debatable.
Yes it is. And it's about time too. He was out of line, but of course all those who voted with him on this issue were out of line IMO as well.
I'm sorry you are so threatened by views that are not lockstep with yours. Perhaps you should get out more.
Perhaps he was.
So was Bill Clinton. So what?
The fact that he was re-elected by so large a majority may also have something to do with the WAY judges run for office. Very often these slimy slick attorneys get nominated by BOTH parties. I don't know if that was the case with Greer, but its common practise where judges are elected. It certainly happens in Pennsylvania and New York. Check it out.
At any rate, the fact that he was elected by a "large majority" has nothing to do with the way he conducted this case. He failed to review all the available evidence, never even visited the patient himself. He was a good buddy of Sheriff Rice who contributed towards his capmpaign. Rice was on the Board of Directors of the murdered woman's hospice, along with Felos, Mikey Schiavo's Attorney. Since Rice also HIRED Mikey Schiavo before he left office creates enough of a slimy trail of potential conflict of interest here for Greer to have recused himself from the case.
But he didn't. Mike wanted his wife dead and Greer ordered the judicial execution of a mentally disabled woman so Mike would be free to marry his live-in roomie, who was also the daughter of a woman who worked for Rice for twenty years.
There was also the totally unaddressed issue of why she wound up in that condition in the first place. Why wasn't Mikey investigated? What about the x-rays showing extensive fractures, the mysterious "private" visits by Mikey to Terri at the hospice, the testimony from individuals about possible abuse and an unhappy marriage collapsing in divorce?????
Meanwhile, the Federal Courts deliberately ignored a Law specifically directing them to conduct a de novo investigation of this case.
Does this sound O.K. to you? I guess if someone's idea of "justice" is what went on NAZI Germany, or in some bananna republic today, it probably does.
You may want to read a little further. Delay is now saying he did NOT apologize for what he said, just the way he said it. I think those of us who did not want to starve Terri to death can still be sure that Delay is on our side.
Care to post a link to one of my supposed 'lies'?
And again, you are breaking FR rules by posting my name in the forum.
If you have any character, you will ask the mod to delete those posts.
I wonder if Greer could win today? I doubt it.
By this, do you mean refusing to agree that the USA is "almost exactly parallel" to Nazi Germany?
Bigger people would not continue to exploit her death in sanctimony.
Bigger people would at least let her rest in peace.
sw
"He failed to review all the available evidence" - I'm not singling you out, ZULU - I ask this question of everyone who repeats this canard. Can you tell me any "evidence" that Greer "failed to review" that was actually tendered to him at trial? Or are you just talking about something you read somewhere that may or may not have been presented to Greer, and may or may not be true? Anything at all?
Speaking of sanctimony ... You do that a lot, try to sweep under the carpet any reference to your dufoidocrity.
Could you provide the exact instance where he ruled against the Constitution? He was relying on past judgements, not the act of an 'activist' judge.
SECOND, he went against Congress, and did what he pleased
Really? Hmmm, seems like Congress got what it wanted. The federal judiciary to stick its nose into someplace that it wasn't wanted nor needed. And mysteriously, the federal judiciary wasn't able to find this mysterious 'right' that the parents supposedly had. Lest we forget this was a judgement on guardianship.
Judge Greer should be IMPEACHED
But of course. Since he wasn't an 'activist' the way you wanted him to be, in that he would have to over turn precedence and create law from the bench to do what you desired, he must be impeached. Is that it?
I am disappointed that "The Hammer" backed down. If he would stick with it, and not listen to his own press, he would finally win over the critics.
Americans like nothing more than a tough guy in tough times!
If he runs as a Republican and a Democrat and no one opposes him in a primary, he will win. Its a case of voting for Judge Greer the Republican or Judge Greer the Democrat.
Thank God the rest of America isn't Florida. It almost makes New York and Massachusetts look normal.
Can always count on you to show up and launch personal attacks. What are you, a designated 'attack Turkey'?
You're so predictable, grunt.
