"Secondly, the Thomas More Law Center is one of the most highly regarded legal groups in the nation. "

Amen. What makes anyone think a Bush would be out-front on this?

I didn't intend to disrespect the Thomas More (Moore?) Law Center. My comment was mainly in reference to Larry Klayman and the like.

Yeah, I know a lot of people who have a bad opinion of, or bad feelings toward, Judicial Watch. I can't argue one way or the other -- I don't know quite what to make of them myself.

But if anything they do here helps, I'll think positively of them, at least in this case. ;-)

Re: Why all the bile?

Thanks for your reply.

I have not followed Larry Klayman, but did recognize that many here were against him.

I will, as time allows, look into this guy and learn more.

You know ....... inquiring minds?

Thanks again.

I know all you Freepers probably know this but Terri's father was on Hannity Radio the other day and said he thinks the husband doesn't want her to wake up because if the truth came out about how she originally suffered brain damage, he'd be thown in jail!

He also said that he PRAYS the husband sues him for slander, because like the OJ civil suit, it would allow him to bring the evidence to trial.

" Early on, like many, I listened to and followed Larry and his filings. After nearly a 100% disappointment rate, I've learned, along with many others here, that Larry is "all hat and no cattle." "

Clara Lou, I agree with you, though I can't articulate as well as you can.

Larry Klayman interceded in all kinds of suits against Bill Clinton--nothing ever came of them, though we all hoped.

I don't know very much about this case, but from what I can tell, the husband is obviously a slime ball who wants to get rid of his first wife.

A governor's powers are limited. That's the truth . And think about it--would you want it any other way? Imagine a Clinton as governor of your state, with sweeping powers to do whatever he wanted.

I am sure Jeb Bush is doing whatever he legally can, which is probably not very much.

And I say this as a lawyer who tried, on a personal level, to prevent my fathers second wife from having control over his medical care (he got very ill).

I'll tell you something: as his daughter, I could not even get a telephone in his room, let alone speak to his doctors.

Spouses hold all the cards. That is the legal reality.

"also love it if he could successfully produce dirt on Hillary in the Peter Paul matter-- but I'm not holding my breath"


Me too... *sigh* Peter Paul will either die in prison or nothing will come of it, for some reason.

And they called Ronald Reagan the "teflon" president...

If Judge Greer followed the law and Terri had a guardian ad litem, I don't think Schiavo would still be her husband.

The 23rd Psalm --- Translated to Terri's Present Reality !!!

The Lord is my Shepherd --- That's Relationship!

I shall not want --- That's Supply!

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures --- That's Rest!

He leadeth me beside the still waters --- That's Refreshment!

He restoreth my soul --- That's Healing!

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness --- That's Guidance!

For His name sake --- That's Purpose!

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death --- That's Testing!

I will fear no evil --- That's Protection!

For Thou art with me --- That's Faithfulness!

Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me --- That's Discipline!

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies--- That's Hope!

Thou annointest my head with oil --- That's Consecration!

My cup runneth over --- That's Abundance!

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life--- That's Blessing!

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord --- That's Security!

Forever --- That's Eternity!

Face it, Terri . . . the Lord is crazy about YOU !!!

"his actions "undermine and threaten the public's confidence in the independence and objectivity of the judiciary, the rule of law, and the state of Florida's ability to impartially administer justice through its state court system."

In the first place, the only "public" that have any confidence remaining in the judiciary whatsoever, are those with a socialist agenda that have control of most of it.

Independence and objectivity??? Bwahahahahahahahahahaha! On what planet? This thing has been skewed, for whatwever reason, from the outset, in favor of Michael Shiavo. Objectivity requires, by definition, having no predispositon and being willing to weigh the facts on both sides. It is my understanding that Greer didn't even listen to much of the evidence that supported the fact that Terri is neither comatose nor in a persisitent vegetative state.

The rule of law??? What about the spirit of the law? All law comes from God and when there is a conflict, the Bible says that we are to obey God rather than man. It is MAN's law that has judged Terri (and by extension and precedent, possibly some of us at some point) unfit to live. God's law says, "though shalt do no murder."

When did the state of Florida learn how to impartially administer justice? The judiciary in the state of Florida is a joke and has been since the 2000 election.

"in which neither he nor the state of Florida is a party or witness, for the apparent purpose of influencing the outcome of the case,"

Hogwash! Each one of us who knows even a small portion of the facts surrounding this case is both party and witness. Anyone, at least anyone who believes in the word of God, cannot with clear conscience stand by and allow the cold-blooded murder of a disabled woman. We are bound to do whatever we can to stop it lest her blood be on OUR hands.

"If the consequences of the husband's exercise of discretion [given him by Judge Greer] are determined to result in the unlawful taking of life, it is entirely appropriate that such actions be interdicted by law enforcement at the direction of the governor."

"Stepping in for Terri would be analogous to vetoing a piece of legislation," Crampton continued. "It is doing what he is duty-bound to do as the chief executive officer of the state of Florida. The whole concept of checks and balances encompasses the duty to independently weigh the pros and cons of the actions that you're called upon to enforce -- not blind obedience to judge-made rulings."

Are you listening Governor Bush?

"But Michael and his corrupt doctors keep claiming that she can't feel pain."

Doctors are healers. These people are executioners.

No matter what, this case is far from over. Even if Terri dies, there are more legal actions that can, and should, follow and hopefully the truth will eventually come out. It shouldn't require her death though. Judge Greer is despicable and isn't fit to make judgements in the interests of others. It is my understanding that he is a Clinton appointee. Is that accurate?
