Sarah is Pro-life all the way Ping.
No Life unworthy of Life with her!
One of these days I hope to see Terry Schiavo’s ex-husband and that filthy, murderous judge put on trial and hung like they deserve.
Hey, Jeb Bush had a hand in the murder, too.
Didn’t do a thing in his position as Governor of Florida to protect that innocent woman.
I hope to get a printed copy of this speech when she delivers it. I’m betting it’ll be one to remember.

Hello everyone - I think we should start posting comments on that site - they are brand new it seems but they have all the latest info about Sarah so we need to help. Start spreading the word. Thanks :-) (I have nothing to do with them but a good well updated Palin site is always a good news)
Tried to comment but even after cleaning all signs I get: URL contains illegal characters. Any suggestion?
Good for Palin; will Jebbie be there too?
I understand where you're coming from.
However, the Schiavo story is an example of the consequences of patriots not understanding the Founding States' division of federal and state government imo, powers evidenced by the Constitution's Section 8 of Article I, Article V and the 10th Amendment.
More specifically, not only have the states never amended the Constitution to protect citizens from such life / death situations, but the states have also never delegated to Congress the specific power to regulate such issues. In fact, the Founding States made the 10th Amendment to clarify that powers not expressly delegated to Congress via the Constitution, powers evidenced by the Constitution's Section 8 of Article I, are automatically reserved uniquely to the states.
So as much as we don't like the way that the Supreme Court seemingly ignored Terri, the Supreme Court was right to identify the situation as a state power issue dealing with "rights" not expressly addressed by the Constitution, and properly did not interfere with it imo. And in trying to get help for Terri from the SCOTUS, patriots were essentially wrongly expecting the Court to legislate life / death issues from the bench imo.
And speaking of legislation, I'll bet that Florida patriots did not learn their lesson from the Schiavo case. In other words, I wouldn't be surprised if Florida citizens have not worked with their state's lawmakers to make laws that are more compassionate to people that are now in the situation that Terri was in.
As a side note to 10th Amendment protected state life and death laws, I believe that the Supreme Court likewise correctly decided in Connecticut's favor in the Kelo v. New London eminent domain case. Again, as a consequence of patriots not understanding the Founding States' division of federal and state government powers, they do not understand that 5th Amendment's requirement for the "government" to compensate former land owners for land taken for public use applies only to the federal government, not to the state governments.
Patriots are now losing their asses to Obama and the corrupt federal government because, as much as they complain about Congress, the Oval Office and activist justices ignoring the Constitution, patriots evidently don't know the Constitution anyway, particularly the Founding States' division of federal and state government powers.
Good for Palin; will Jebbie be there too?
well he did say he had to follow the law. That old blind senile judge was the supreme law of the state.</sarcasm>
Thanks for the Sarah ping.
I mark the most serious slide toward where we are today morally as a nation from the time Terri was murdered.
This was a serious failing by the GOP members of Congress, the President, and Jeb Bush and Florida officials—all of whom took oaths to protect the rights to life enshrined in our Federal and State Constitutions. Even the left gave up their hallowed women’s-control-over-their-own-bodies issues and gladly and gleefully supported Terri’s evil husband in his single-minded desire to dispatch the helpless Terri.
And then to do it in a way that defies humanity—allowing someone to dehydrate for 13 days, in indescribable pain. We don’t even let a dog die like that.Even a convicted murderer is dispatched quickly and painlessly.
From 2005 to the economic collapse in 2008 and the rise of Obama. Three short years from then.
Add that to 60 million aborted babies in America in the last forty years, it is amazing we have not yet received the Sodom and Gomorrah treatment from a just and holy God.
God bless Sarah for identifying with Terri and her family. That woman has a special kind of goodness and grace.

In a way we have.....it’s called Obama.
Lord God bless Sarah and her family, may the presence of God be with her, in Jesus name. Amen
