Thanks for the post on Terri's behalf. I support her 100%. Frankly I wonder why she hasn't been smuggled into another country that can protect her better and give her the care she needs.

It comes to no surprise to me that if people can suck the brains out of living feeling children then why not old people and the disabled as well.

I personally wrote Govenor Bush on this right before they pulled her feeding tube. I am glad he acted and continues to act on behalf of the defensless. Starvation is a cruel death. What's next Christians? It sure seems like it.

Launched on October 19, 2003, russesjunjee cometh to do the hashed over Hitler comparison thing. Seems like its been done a half-dozen times since Terri threads started appearing on FR. YET, on the positive side, it is very worthy to regurgitate the connection a thousand times.

If I appear cynical at the moment, it's because I am. I just got hit-on again ( the third time ) by a combination Alan Keyes and Randall Terry email solicitation for a contribution for "saving Terri".

There's been a kind-of re-write of the original twice sent email fundraiser pitch. This time they acknowledge there has been and is now considerable activity by 'others' to 'save' Terri - without naming any org or individual effort. Further, after writing how Terry says he "....saved Terri....", he's included the caveat : "....(for now)....".

I am particularly offended that Johnny-come-lately claptrappers spout ideas and or actions in a fashion that would give the casual apathetic moronic nincompoop American Citizen the impression that an idea is novel or a public relations photo-op produced any change in the death sentence hanging over Terri. It did not, and novelity slants on how to bribe America into doing something for the protection of own kin ceased moons ago.

This quote comes to mind :

I think your post has a lot of merit. When you look at what was going on during Hitler's reign, Terri's case is a perfect example of incremental changes to the laws guiding society.

Never in my wildest dreams would I have believed partial birth abortions would be allowed in this country and I never believed that feeding someone or giving them water would be considered extraordinary means of life support. Evidently, starving and dehydrating someone to death is not allowed in some states.

Pro-Euthanasia Group Uses Terri Schiavo Case to Expand Membership

December 10, 2003

Pinellas Park, FL (LifeNews.com) -- The pro-euthanasia group End-of-Life Choices, formerly the Hemlock Society, has started a $60,000 ad campaign in Florida, using the plight of Terri Schiavo as a way to make its case and expand its membership.

David Brand, chief-executive-officer of End-of-Life Choices, said his group started the campaign because it was concerned that state residents would no longer use living wills or advance directives as a result of the state legislature's decision to pass Terri's Law, allowing Governor Bush to ask doctors to reinsert Terri's feeding tube.

The campaign includes newspaper ads in Tallahassee, Orlando, Tampa and Miami, and speeches throughout the state this week by officials of the pro-assisted suicide group.

"Today's headlines are full of the pain of unspoken wishes," one newspaper ad reads. "Save your loved ones the anguish of making a difficult decision when you are unable to speak for yourself."

Pat Anderson, attorney for Terri's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, said she was disappointed the group chose to use Terri's case as a springboard to advocating that disabled persons like Terri be killed.

"Floridians need to know that this is the Hemlock Society with a new name, and they are trying to hide their pro-euthanasia agenda," Anderson told the Associated Press. "They are using Terri Schiavo to promote euthanasia."

"Terri is a victim and they are victimizing her a second time," Anderson told WorldNetDaily.

"Terri should not have to pass a test to be able to live. Even if Terri never gets one bit better than she is today, her parents love her and want to care for her. The fact is they're capable of loving their disabled daughter and, perhaps to these ghouls, that's an incomprehensible concept."

Brand said his group changed its name to be more specific about its mission.

However, pro-life organizations say the organization spends its time promoting assisted suicide rather than pain relief for patients or helping them find hospice care to reduce the desire to end their life.

They say the real battle is the fight to obtain lifesaving medical treatment when it is denied -- in cases like Terri's, that of Jason Childress and others.

Nancy Valko, a representative of Nurses for Life, says the media needs to hold the organization more accountable.

"Where is the media curiosity about the funding behind Hemlock's expensive campaigns, such as that in Maine when voters were considering an assisted suicide bill," Valko asked.

In Maine, the pro-assisted suicide group "Death with Dignity" waged an aggressive $2 million campaign in favor of a referendum legalizing the grisly practice. It received 95 percent of its funding from the National Hemlock Society and its allies, as well as from individual Hemlock Society members from around the country.

The real goal of End-of-Life Choices appears to be government funding of euthanasia, Valko explains.

Faye Girsh, executive director of the former Hemlock Society, said her groups supports Medicaid funding for assisted-suicides.
"It should be like any other medical procedure," she said.

More on why they want us dead. You are right it is related to their Income-Tax/Social-Security/Medicare pyramid scam, which they used to buy their way into power. I don't believe they ever planned to pay up after they got themselves to this point.

One more thing. You know that 14th Amendment we hear so much about, the one that supposedly gives Terri her "due process" right to life? Section 4 of that Amendment is the one that guarantees that the banksters get their stolen wealth, and the one the 'Patriot Act' now seeks to defend against Patriots [ http://www.keepandbeararms.com/newsarchives/XcNewsPlus.asp?cmd=view&articleid=2126 ].

"..Section 4. THE VALIDITY OF THE PUBLIC DEBT OF THE UNITED STATES, authorized by law, INCLUDING DEBTS INCURRED FOR PENSIONS AND BOUNTIES FOR SERVICES IN SUPPRESSING INSURRECTION OR REBELLION, SHALL NOT BE QUESTIONED. But neither the United States nor any state shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.

Section 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article..."

If John Ashcroft were a patriot, he would direct his attention to the traitors/robber-barons who rule over us.
