May God have mercy on us all.

I'll feed her. My mom is willing to clean her. She knows all about colostomy tubes. My home isn't much. But we don't starve anyone.

'Bob Schindler has been charged with contempt of court, and he and his wife cannot visit their daughter without Mr. Schiavo's permission—or his lawyer.'

This makes me so sick.

Jeb Bush is an accomplice to a murder in progress. I will never vote for him to be my president.

[First_Salute]

Bump.

[Lucy Lake]

Oh, my goodness, check this out.

[mr_griz]

I just don't understand how this can be happening in America. This seems to be state-sanctioned homocide. What has become of us?

[Diva Betsy Ross]

No justice for Terri , no votes for Jeb 2008. No justice , no peace.

[Alberta's Child]

As much as I admire those who are standing up for Terri in this case, I can't shake this feeling that we are digging their trenches on this about ten miles behind the point where a truly effective stand should have been made.

May God help us all.

I'll say more on this later when I'm posting from a different computer.

This heartbreaking story is a strong argument for married couples to fill out health care power of attorney and advance directive forms. All of this ugliness could have been so easily avoided if Terri had had her wishes in writing.

(Remember, if you wait until you need it, sometimes it's too late!)

Schiavo has got to be the most vile creature ever to draw a breath. The most shameless, in your face murdering dog in U.S. history.

It's after 5PM, now. The state govt. offices are shut down. Guess we needn't expect to hear anything from the executive branch until Monday. Too late, of course. I'd like to believe otherwise but it just doesn't seem realistic. I desperately hope they prove me mistaken.

I read something in the Florida constitution that the governor has the power to intervene to protect persons, property etc. in an emergency. Terri is a person. This is surely an emergency. He is free to exercise his executive powers as he believes is appropriate. That is not against the law even if it is not in agreement with a court ruling.

I don't know where anyone ever got the idea that the courts have the final say in anything. This even applies to the Supreme Court. Abraham Lincoln ingnored their ruling as did WJC. That just about covers the full spectrum of morality.

If , after the governor takes executive action, I believe there are remedies in the legislature (impeachment, for one) and also the people may remedy it by voting him out of office.

Either remedy is OK by me because by the time they could be implemented the Schindlers could have absconded Terri out of harms way to a safe haven.

Indeed, Bush has the power. The question is; does he have the fortitude?

[hunyb]

If she dies, I personally hope that Bob Schindler will make it his life's pursuit to make Michael Schiavo's life a living hell. I would.

God have mercy is right.

[GluteusMax]

How secure is the home? I'm surprised the home has not been stormed by concerned pro-lifers in the area and Terri removed to safety from the murderers.

[MSCASEY]

I just spoke to the girl at Jeb Bush's office and asked her this question.

"If Terri can swallow and wants some ice chips will it be offered to her." If she is able to eat yogurt will that be offered to her?

Response: We don't know!!!!

I will help him. The laywers and judges and Jeb need to be held accountable for this unjust act.

[SwordofTruth]

Indeed, Bush has the power. The question is; does he have the fortitude?

If he lets this woman be murdered in this way by a husband who cares not one whit for her, then his political career is over and his name is mud.
