She's being murdered by morphine as we type. Soon it will be too late. At least we know where she's going.

Michael Schiavo has been an in-your-face, you-can't-stop-me, "nyah, nyah, nyah-nyah nyah" guy for 13 years. Why should he stop now?
To: Theodore R.
Agree on Katherine Harris.

He is a large, imposing man. Apparently, like Bill Clinton, he has quite a way with the ladies. I have often wondered why women are attracted to low-lifes like that. Maybe they think that they can reform him.

Judicial Watch and Klayman Jump In Well, that settles it. Might as well start planning the memorial services.

Actually, the timing could be good. If Judge Greer is on the golf course all weekend, anyone who intervened might have two full days to remove Ms. Schindler-Shiavo from the hospice and get her some good treatment. It's time to let the other side feel helpless and concerned about the timing for a change.

It's the "Mother" instinct, I think. Here's a "Bad Boy" who just needs a little love to turn him around.
It doesn't work on Evil, however.

GOV. BUSH HAS AUTHORITY TO STOP DEATH OF TERRI SCHIAVO BY DEHYDRATION & STARVATION
Judge Ordering Terri Schiavos Death Violated Eighth Amendment (Cruel and Unusual Punishment) & Floridas Abuse and Neglect Statutes
Gov. Bush Should Direct Floridas Dept. of Children and Family Services to Intervene, Resume Nutrition & Investigate
(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, stated today that Florida Governor Jeb Bush has the authority to prevent the death by starvation and dehydration of Ms. Terri Schiavo.
Unless rapid action is taken by Governor Bush, Ms. Schiavo will die of dehydration; a slow, grueling death taking approximately two weeks. This form of death entails less blood flow to major organs the brain, kidneys, heart, lungs and skin. The kidneys stop functioning and the body cannot expel its waste. As Ms. Sciavo grows weaker, her breathing will become more difficult, taking in less oxygen and expelling less carbon dioxide. U.S. law forbids animals to die this way. The U.S. Department of Agriculture regulations (9 C.F.R. ' 2.131) specifically prohibits the withholding of food and water from farm animals.
Pinellas County Circuit Court Judge George Greers ruling to remove Ms. Schiavos feeding tube is the most liberal applications to date of a persons constitutional right to refuse medical treatment. Judge Greer did what judges in other landmark cases did not do ordering the end of life in opposition to a majority of the patients family members.
Ms. Schiavo is being subjected to a cruel and inhumane form of torture that violates her fundamental rights and human dignity, under both federal and Florida state law. Governor Bush must immediately order the Florida Department of Children and Family Services to intervene on behalf of Ms. Schiavo, restore her nutrition and initiate a full investigation of the circumstances surrounding Ms. Schiavos disability. Terri Schiavos life is in Jeb Bushs hands, stated Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

And they called the California Recall a circus. The presence of Klayman moves this from sad situation to farce. Klayman stay home and sue your mother again.

I'm not really an optimist. I just think that if the governor is going to stretch his authority to do the right thing, it might be more effective on the weekend when the usual bureaucracies won't be functioning as well as they would during the week. I don't really see a happy ending anymore.

Maybe, just maybe, Jeb can step in on a Saturday when DCF isn't working an assume their authority (hoping).

"You know a case is hopeless the minute Klayman gets involved." Truer words were never spoken. When that ambulance chaser gets involved in a case, you know the end is near. Watch for urgent fundraising appeals from Judicial Watch, coming soon to an email box near you.

There ARE things worse than death you idiots and may all you Pollyanna Rat do-gooders find this out the hard way.Your rant belies your FR moniker. I would suggest that if you want to suffer a similar fate to Terri's that you make your Living Will state that withholding food and fluids is your preferred way to die.
Terri made no such Living Will. According to what I've heard and read, Terri has not been living in pain and displays signs of pleasure during visits from her parents. This being the case, and with ample funds available for her care, she should be allowed to live until the Lord decides to call her home. Anything less infringes upon her rights as an American citizen.
She is not chattle...she is a human being and deserves the mercy and compassion of her fellows.
And I would remind you, that it is the tendancy of Democrats and Liberals to decide what is best for others...not Republicans or Libertarians. Casting such a slur against those of us on this forum that care about Terri's temporal fate only reveals your true character.

There should be a new law that states that if a spouse give up on it's mate, that the spouse should lose guardianship.
This so called 'husband" is a joke. He even has 2 children by another woman, and that alone should be reason enough to dismiss this guardian, who wants to impose a death sentence on the one that he married, so she can marry another. God see fit to intervene in the life of Terri, for as long as there is life, there is hope.
