I have never been so proud of my Party as I am now. The Respect-life Party has gone to the ends for Terri Schiavo and there is no doubt as to where we stand. Sure there are some Rinoes who have stood with the Dinosaurs for Death, but the leaders of our Party have stood in the Breech for Life. We may lose the battle in Terri’s case, God Rest her Soul, but we have fought the War. There has never been a more transparent difference between the two Parties. The Leaders of our Party has ignored the Stone Age Press, an Out of Control Judiciary and Polls to stand by their Principles.
The Dinosaurs have to pretend that every issue has 82 shades of Grey including life and death. That is why they have to change the name of death to Vegetable, Brain dead, Fetus, Weed, Unwanted and the list goes on and on. The last thing they want Terri to be called is a human being or someone’s child, because that will make people think of this issue as killing. These people cry when their houseplant dies of not watering, yet they are perfectly happy to argue the value of killing a person of thirst or sucking a baby out of a mother. You cannot paint your shades of Grey when something is as simple as Life or Death. They have to use greys to hide their absence of values or core beliefs.
The DimRat Party has gone from the Happy Days in the 60's and 70's of Camelot and has followed the Bloody Road of Abortion to the modern days of Crash-a-lot. This is a dark day in America as we await the death of another innocent victim being sacrificed to their god of humanism. Any means justifies any ends when you color different shades of grey. It was ok to kill the Royal family of Russia to bring about Communism. The same for China, Vietnam, Cuba and Cambodia. It is ok to kill a baby as long as you are protecting the mother’s freedom to “choose.” In their warped view the very thing that makes women superior to men is what is holding them back, childbirth. It is fine to disgrace the office of President and the Country as long as he’s vetoing abortion bans. You can even throw a boy back to a brutal dictator after his mother drowned escaping, if you have enough paint. In their world any immoral act can be justified if it furthers their agenda.
The long march to amorality has brought us to the murder of a perfectly healthy woman to appease the god of assisted suicide. How much more Godless can we go?? Jesus said, how you treat the least of these is how you treat me. How appropriate that on the day of his crucifixion we are killing the least of us.
There could not be a more black and white case in America than the Schiavo case. If you have two people disagreeing on an issue you have to give them both some weight to their story. Even if Judge Greer Reaper assumes the husband is telling the truth, yet there is a 10% chance he is not; you have to err on the side of keeping Terri alive. This is a simple Black and White or in this case life or death. You always give every indifference to life because life is precious, even a vegetable’s, which she is not.
Our leaders in Congress, Gov Bush and President Bush have done everything they can do within the law. They cannot send in the troopers like Bull Reno and start a civil war between police. They have sworn a declaration to uphold the Constitution and it’s laws. We are not Democrats who will use any means, including force to forward an agenda. How anyone could predict that the steps that we have taken would be snubbed and they would not review this case is why we need moral judges. Her death for an agenda is going to forever stain our Country, laid at the feet of the Party of Death. They and the Libertarians have pushed for this death for the last 2 years and now they can enjoy their “victory.” This is one major reason many Americans could never belong to those Parties, for their immorality and amorality towards life.
We have done all we can for Terri and for that we should be proud of our leadership. They as we are having our hearts broken during this deep dark Easter celebration. God is in control and perhaps he needed America to have a lamp unto it’s feet to get back on the narrow path. Perhaps he needed to expose evil for evil and what you get when you turn your back to God. None of this exposure would have happened if Jeb and GW were not in power, although in the end they were powerless to stop this senseless killing. The Judicial Branch has no heart and has no humanity, only empty briefs. For that, a little girl in Florida is going to pay the final price while her Mom and Dad cry helplessly. We can only Pray for Terri, her Family and this once great Country. We can Pray that Jesus will Heal Her and Welcome Her with Open Arms into his Glory. Amen.
Pray for W and Terri’s Family
It's been very impressive. There might have been one more step JEB could have taken, but it would not have stood for long. Life was outmaneuvered. Moving forward, changes need to be made to make this impossible.
Absent a writing, err on the side of life. That's the first reform. There's a dozen more, but that must be first.
As frustrated and angry, and deeply grieved as I am with the ongoing murder of Terri Schiavo, I am also grieved at the assaults against the people who have tried to save her. And I am grieved by the evil I have seen on this forum (from those on both sides of the argument), and I believe that this is spiritual warfare such as we have not seen in America.
If we blame the problem on the Bushes and the Republican party, and use them as scapegoats, we are missing the crux of the problem, which is a deep spiritual void in most American's lives, and a complacency among Christians that allowed this situation to get this far, and the secondary problem which is the usurpation of legislative power by the judiciary.
We MUST be in prayer, for strength, and wisdom for both Jeb and President Bush, and for our nation. We are in a fierce battle here, but the war will not be over, even if we lose here.
We must continue our prayer for the soul of America.
Well said! Praying with you!
Thank you.
I just wish & pray that this event will also have an ending which will grorify our God.
HIS will be done, on earth, as it is in Heaven.
Amen to that!
I just hope that the true Christians (as opposed to the myriad of trolls posing as Christians to stir up trouble), who blame the Bushes for this, will not forsake their prayers for these fine men.
"I just hope that the true Christians (as opposed to the myriad of trolls posing as Christians to stir up trouble), who blame the Bushes for this, will not forsake their prayers for these fine men."
Amen, ohioWfan.
OhioWFan,
I certainly hope that you are right. The Christian world in this nation has been in worse shape before. In the late 1700s, some of the colleges such as Princeton and Yale, that had Christian in them. Then Revival came. So yes, we are ready for revival.
But, with the world scene being as it is, and the prophetic timeclock ticking along - I can't help but think judgment is not far away. Will America be completely destroyed. I can't definatively foresee that in Scripture. But I also know that God is not mocked.
I pray for Terri. I pray for this nation. And I pray that God will be glorified.
Praying with you, ohio. Nothing is too difficult for our Lord.
With you in prayer, Blogger.
God will bring glory to Himself through this, Blogger, and I praise Him for that. We just need to be faithful in prayer, and in word and deed to honor Him with our lives.
Amen!
Also we must change the absolute authority of the judicial branch. Laura Ingraham talked about that on her radio show the other day. I have been hearing her talk about the problem of activist judges and I didn't really pay much attention until now -- they are leading us in the March of Death -- First legalized abortion, now legalized death -- death by mandate. The three branches of the govt are supposed to be equal. In this case, the judiciary branch has said to the Congress and President Bush, F@#k you! We're the gods in this country. THIS HAS GOT TO CHANGE! It's not govt "BY THE JUDGES" but "BY THE PEOPLE!"
It has always been postulated that politics will be the death of us. Now I understand the full meaning of that mimicry....
Terri's parents are pointing their finger at Gov. Bush. Gov.Bush and the President are watching the polls; and if the polls show more believe the government should stay out of this tragedy; then that will be how the President and Gov. Bush will play this out.
We can go into Iraq and Afghanistan to save lives of men, women and children we do not know nor will ever meet; but we cannot save our Terri Schrivo, the victim of a terrible injustice.
Should Jeb Bush run for President; he will never secure my vote.
A friend and I were talking...
He could be hero...
He could walk up to that hospice himself and put the tube in... what are they going to do? Arrest him? I would like to see that.
he would get my vote if did this, but I am afraid that he is watching polls, and when did polls get you to do the right thing?
For a long time now, I knew the Republicans did have guts, but I was hoping this case would change everything... confront the Arrogant Judiciary... but no, they backed down again... like they backed down against the filibusting of judges.... like they backed down on everything.
Pray for W, Jeb and Terri
