Freerepublic.com has a super-sized archive regarding Terri Schiavo. The Dailies thread is a digest of breaking news, venting, ranting, photos, prayers, poetry, contact numbers and serve as a meeting place. The daily thread runs itself for the most part.
Please put your links regarding justice for Terri on this thread or articles re: people who are waking up all the time and speaking because they've been given new treatments. Terri was denied a chance to eat by mouth at the end and she was denied new groundbreaking tests by Judge Greer. Instead, he stuck to his guns that she would be starved and dehydrated beginning on March 18th. What a man. It takes a big man to starve an innocent woman to death. This was ALL AGAINST THE FLORIDA STATUTES.
EXPOSURE IS ON THE HORIZON: Mark Fuhrman's book will be available at www.amazon.com by the end of June, 2005. Another book by Cheryl Ford, RN will be available soon.
The GOP is getting phone calls but they are not listening to their constituents on the issue of George Greer. Does the GOP endorse judicial tyranny? Ask them. Find out.
Possibly we can mend a divide in the Republican Party that is turning into a dangerous crevasse by demanding the impeachment of Judge George Greer, Sixth Circuit Court, Pinellas County, Florida.
If that sounds radical, please note that the democrats are in trouble as well for not saving Terri's life.
Greer had super powers over the Governor of Florida, over the US Congress, the President and over the FDLE. Greer who was in defiance of the US Congress and President is the one who needs investigation and impeachment but the RINO's in Tallahassee are reluctant to do their duty.
If Terri was killed because of money and power, let us find out how RINOS like Senator Jim King went into battle against Terri with the death lobby and the national trial lawyers. Senator Jim King of Duval County should not get a pass either, not ever.
I received this from the Center for Reclaiming America (e-mail), and if you can't call them all, please at least call one or two.
If you can't call them, at least e-mail them (but calling is more effective).
THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR. PLEASE make that call!
The Center has identified six key senators whose votes may well
decide the fate of the filibuster rules change. We are asking
all member of our online team to contact these individual
senators, urging each to FULLY SUPPORT THE FILIBUSTERING
RULES CHANGE.
Even if none of these six senators is your own senator,
please invest the time needed to call each right now.
Here are their names and contact information:
Sen. Susan Collins (ME) 202-224-2523
Sen. Lamar Alexander (TN) 202-224-4944
Sen. Trent Lott (MS) 202-224-6253
Sen. Olympia Snowe (ME) 202-224-5344
Sen. Chuck Hagel (NE) 202-224-4224
Sen. John Warner (VA) 202-224-2023
That was not at all the point and was stated NO WHERE. I very much agree with your above post, elsewise, I would not have participated in political issues and joined grassroots organizations, like FR, off and on since college.
But there are times when it is wise to facilitate an effort through the help of proven professionals.
However, the major point of my original post, before we got sidetracked, is that we should regroup and push for a Congressional investigation, which in turn might then lead to Greer's Impeachment, if we are serious about getting him impeached. On it's own, without pressure from people and authorities outside the State of Florida, it is most doubtful Greer's impeachment will occur.
Is Fuhrman still going to be on Hannity & Colmes tonight?
I hadn't heard Hannity and Colmes was having Fuhrman on their program. If so, I will be sure to watch.
Mark Fuhrman will be on Hannity & Colmes tonight at 9 pm EST. He'll discuss his book on Terri's death.

House GOP plans strategy on federal courts
By Mike Allen
U.S. Rep. James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis.
"WASHINGTON With conservative anger at the judiciary peaking, House Republican leaders plan to use budgetary, oversight and disciplinary authority to assert greater control over the federal courts before next year's elections. "
DOES SCHIAVO CASE SIGNAL 'CULTURE OF DEATH'?
By: John W. Kennedy
Published date: May 9, 2005
AG News - Conservative groups believe Terri Schiavo's March 31 court-imposed death by starvation signals a clear society shift in devaluing life.
"We are quickly slipping into a culture of death," said Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council.
Focus on the Family founder James Dobson criticized judges who failed to act to save Schiavo's life as "guilty not only of judicial malfeasance, but of the cold-blooded, cold-hearted extermination of an innocent human life."
Multiple legal challenges from Schiavo's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, failed during the 13 days of Schiavo's slow death. Even though the U.S. House convened for an extraordinary special session vote during Easter recess and President Bush flew back to Washington from his Texas ranch to sign the bill, courts repeatedly refused to intervene to save the 41-year-old brain-damaged woman, who had been connected to a feeding tube for 15 years.
The Schindlers found broad support in groups rallying to the cause. "Pro-life groups, disability groups and even liberal feminist groups don't like the idea of a husband doing away with his wife," said family attorney Barbara Weller. Everyone from Jesse Jackson to 250 Alabama Assemblies of God youth made appeals to show Schiavo mercy.
Mary Schindler said 48 hours after Terri collapsed, Michael asked her and her husband to sign papers they thought only allowed Michael to be the spokesman to the doctor. "We didn't know we were giving up all rights to Terri," said Schindler, who criticized Michael Schiavo for stopping therapy for Terri 12 years ago. "All I wanted was for my daughter to just have a chance," Schindler told PE Report.
Dana Cody, executive director of the Life Legal Defense Foundation in Napa, California, said the disabled increasingly are being marginalized because of "quality of life" arguments.
"It's become standard operating procedure in the health care community," Cody said. "Seeing Terri die will advance the 'right-to-die' agenda."
Weller cited parallels to Nazi Germany with Circuit Court Judge George Greer's edict to end Schiavo's life. "If they can kill Terri, they will kill many more people," Weller said. "Once they start killing off one group of people who don't mean much to society, who knows where it will end."
Daniel Webster, the Republican senator in Florida who sponsored Terri's Law, which kept the woman alive an additional two years, noted that Schiavo had a heartbeat, brainwaves and - except for the feeding tube - appeared in excellent health. "She was no different than many other people who are severely handicapped," Webster said. "Her life was valuable and worth fighting for."

CALL THE Toll Free Number for U.S. CONGRESS: 1-877-762-8762
Why?
On Thursday, May 12, thousands of citizens from across the nation will be calling their senators--demanding a vote that would guarantee an "up or down" vote on judicial nominations!
NOW, THE LEGACY OF TERRI'S FIGHT IS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS TO AND ALL OF US
=========================================================
I had never read the above. How utterly tragic.
I am calling the Senators now. Thank you for the informative and beautiful post.
His friend is George Greer. George Greer was a zoning commissioner before he became a sub-standard judge. Greer was zoning land for the Scientologists in the good old days.
Now we have a direct tie between Greer and the Scientologists who have gobbled up Clearwater over the years. Remember when ED ARMSTRONG was bragging about his friend George Greer?

Morton Plant Hospital has ties to Scientology as well. They went to court and asked J. Greer what to do about Terri in March of 2005. It was reported in the Miami Herald, not in one of the local papers.
I heard that as well which leads me to believe that Michael had this all planned from the get go, but didn't realize she was going to live and when he did he acted quickly to try and make sure he could make all the decisions about her care and do whatever he could to kill her.
TEJ did a story about how Michael may well have known Jody (whose mother worked at the sheriffs office) before Terri's collapse. Which means Michael may have enlisted Jody's assistance very early on. More evidence for your theory.
"Hospice is backtracking too. I know that's hard to believe but they are having a change of position as of late."
You're right! It is hard to believe that Hospice is having a change of position. We need to remember that a Lepard usually can't change his spots. I don't trust them.
Great thread, FV! You're the best and I very much appreciate all the hard work you've done for Terri and others.
God Bless you, FV~!!
Hospice is having trouble attracting patients. That's why they're backtracking imo.
It really is a small world. She's a lovely person and I know she was good to Terri.
