All but 5 republicans in the U.S. Congress support Terri's right to live. Every major conservative talk radio host, ranging from Rush Limbaugh to Michael Savage, supports Terri. An overwhelming majority of conservative bloggers, from Ace to Wizbang, take the side of Terri's parents.
It's amazing to see the activism amongst conservatives that was once thought to be reserved only for the liberals. Do not, for a second, dismiss the events that have shaken America in these past few weeks as religious activism - spearheaded by right to lifers.
No- it's much more than that.
Conservatives cry foul for Terri, not because it's the constitutional choice, but the right one. Any man who allows a static set of rules dictate how he must live is a fool. I say this knowing the laws of my land and respecting them with all my life force.
If conservatives ever intend on taking this country back from the entrenched liberal establishment, moral principles must eclipse law when necessary.
Terri deserves a chance because life is precious and should not be discarded for ostensible reasons. It is the belief of many, primarily Terri's parents, that Terri is not in a vegetated state and that her "husband" is not being completely truthful, as to why he would like to see her die.
For years, liberals have been sacking this country of it's culture and dignity, via judicial activism. I cannot think of a better time, in such a life or death situation as this, to scream bloody murder and make clear to the activist judge that he will not rule this nation from the bench- overriding the peoples wishes.
Rabid liberal activist's, such as Barney Frank, want to see the destruction of America's core values. For any conservative that, at this very juncture, takes the side of Frank, DemocraticUnderground and the overwhelming moonbat citizenry in this country, needs to get his head examined.
As Good Friday nears, I pray for a miracle, but expect the worst. No American deserves to be treated like this. Moreover, to make it legal via court ruling, is just about the most melancholic abuse of justice that has ever fallen upon America.
Barney Frank's a bum and I'm ashamed the homo is Jewish (in name only)
Conservatives will NEVER take this country back by advocating lawlessness.
Is it really lawlessness to sacrifice personal freedom to save a life. We are talking about putting your self between a helpless person and someone who is going to take a their life. That isn't anarchy. That is the American way.
An image we certainly didn't need over breakfast.
You are wrong my friend. THe law is an ass in this case.
