TERRI SCHINDLER SCHIAVO FEBRUARY DAILY THREAD 2005: TERRI IS OUR VALENTINE!
Free Republic and various sources | December 30, 2004, January 31, 2005 | Florida Voter

Posted on 01/31/2005 9:14:49 PM PST by TAdams8591

*Michael, HAVE A HEART !!!!!For Valentines Day give Terri back to her MOM & DAD, The Schindlers!!!!!!!!*

The Terri Schindler Schiavo Daily Threads are created month to month as we watch local and national news regarding Terri and her family.

Since Terri's supporters are in every time zone, you may see something FIRST. Please share news with us that you don't see here already. Now, why would you want to do that? Terri's Daily Thread for September/October of 2004 was viewed over 15,000 times. Terri's November Daily Thread was viewed over 6,000 times. December's thread is over 3,000 views. January 2005 Daily Thread was a RECORD HIGH!!!!!!! 15, 103 VIEWS!!!!!!

More and more good folks are finding out about Terri and that judicial tyranny would take her life, but for lots and lots of prayer and non-stop lobbying of relatives, friends, clergy, our leaders, the media, a passerby, a cashier - ANYONE who you feel comfortable chatting with.

Folks always want to know how can this be in America or on earth for that matter? Unfortunately, this is really happening to an innocent woman who just celebrated her 41st birthday. She's not the only one but she's the one with devoted parents and siblings who knows what's in Terri's heart. Terri has a strong will to live. That's apparent. It's been 14 years.

Besides, feeding tubes have been around practically since the Civil War. They are not high tech devices. Terri is "not hooked up to machines". Her feeding tube is the diameter of a piece of spaghetti.

Talkin' about Terri is the best way to lobby for her. It is a salespitch to save her life and subsequently, many lives. If you've never sold anything in your life, START NOW. START WITH TERRI.

See Terri's flash movies if you need more information. You can see for yourself that's she's interactive and follows the doctor's instructions.

NOTE: Terri's December Dailies are noted as a source above. There are lots of important links at the very top of that thread. If you missed Terri's Celebration of Life, you can click on it from there.

AGAIN WE HAVE A NEW RECORD: 15,103 views on the tote board for the Terri Schindler Schiavo January Daily Thread!

The most significant event in Terri's case in January, was the Supreme's Courts refusal to hear Governor Jeb Bush's appeal, after the Florida State Legislature struck down Terri's Law. This once again places Terri's life in extreme jeopardy, though there are other issues regarding her case before the court.

There is a Court Hearing on Monday in Greer's courtroom. Attorney Gibbs is trying to get a STAY. So, Greer is having Court on Monday - sometimes the courthouses have different holidays than state and federal institutions or banks. Or, Greer is holding a hearing on a holiday.

REGARDING THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE AND GOV. BUSH:

I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH TO KEEP CALLING JEB, SPEAKER BENSE AND SEN PREZ TOM LEE.

They may not be completely forthcoming with their answers but they will note your calls. At this point, they are holding their cards close to the vest. They may say something general to you - don't try to read anything into their responses. JUST MAKE SURE THEY NOTE YOUR CALLS.

Thanks for the info. I just e-mailed Laura Ingraham, too. She probably gets so many e-mails, it might take many of us e-mailing to get through to her.

Even if Laura had a show about Terri next week, it would still not be too late, even if Terri's lawyer were not successful in stopping the tube from being removed on Feb. 22.

I think Terri will survive this, as she always does.

We must all keep praying.

Laura Ingraham has her own web site and it's linked (I think) at www.townhall.com. I met her during Jeb's 2000 re-election campaign at Friva Las Vegas. She spoke at the FR conference. That being said, I am swamped today and I do not know her personally. She has no radio deal in Tampa Bay either - it fell through. Go for it.

If you find her email address, please post it here for the freepers. Thanks. FV

Unfortunately, if Judge Greer finds the testimony of Michael's sister-in-law on that subject to be "clear and compelling evidence", no appeals court is allowed to question his judgement.

Why? That very question went to at least 3 other states Supreme Courts and once to the United States Supreme Court.

Also, do you have that 1999 statute handy? I'd like to look at it.

Yes, sadly judges do put their own ideology before the law. That's how we got Roe vs. Wade.

A bump for this great news that you provided:

"Terri's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, will appear on CNN's Paula Zahn show tonight (Feb 18) at 8:00pm EST.

Also tonight, Bob Schindler and attorney David Gibbs will appear on EWTN (Eternal Word Television Network) with Raymond Arroyo tonight at the same time, 8:00pm EST.

You will be happy to know that a woman from The Empire Journal (probably Scoop I) was on the Rollye James' show for almost an hour last night, fighting hard for Terri, and asking folks to call Gov. Bush, et al.

All the calls that I have heard on the Rolleye James show last night and in the past have been very pro-Terri. Rolleye James, and all of her guests, including Terri's dad around one-half year ago, have been doing a good job for Terri.

Florida Judicial Canons 5 something. A judge cannot act as Judge and Guardian of a Ward unless said judge is a relative of the Ward.

Judge Greer is not related to Terri Schiavo. HE IS VIOLATING A JUDICIAL CANON. So is the Second DCA by affirming Greer.

They cannot affirm a Judge who is breaking the law but they are going to soon publish a MANDATE affirming J. Greer who CANNOT, is FORBIDDEN from being judge and guardian.

The Rule of Law is an endangered species in the State of Florida. FV

A couple of us did e-mail Laura Ingraham through her website, but she gets so many e-mails, I don't know if she will even see it.

It would be worth a try if many of us e-mailed Laura, because she has so much passion for all life issues.

"Yikes!! I was just ready to go to bed, and it dawned on me that Monday, Feb. 21 is a holiday (Presidents' day).

That means we need to make our phone calls today, Friday, February 18, as this is the last business day before February 22.

So those of you who haven't called yet, please call TODAY.


I did, and now I'm through. We have less than the full day to make our calls, faxes and emails. Having once worked for state government, I know that not much gets done after lunch on Friday. On the Friday before a long weekend, people start drifting away from work after noon. Right now, there are hundreds of government employees thinking, "Oh, if I can only make it to 1PM, I won't be bothered by these Terri Schiavo calls!"

Please permit me to rant a while to everybody. Unless something unforseen happens, we may be in the last two hours for this kind of activism. It's time to think about actions over the next few days. Those who plan to put themselves on the line physically should consider that Mikey might try to have the tube removed as soon as he can -- such as just after midnight on the 22nd. On FR, expect a death troll outbreak unlike any you've ever seen. Just steel yourself for it in advance.

It's time to consider what the fight for Terri's life will become in the future. It's time to realize that Greer might be about to make a decision that would contribute to the coming civil strife many forsee for this nation. I'm hoping every one of Terri's Fighters will realize that this is a much bigger issue than just Terri, and become a force to oppose judicially ordered medical murder in all its forms, everywhere, with whatever it takes. Whatever it takes to stop America's homegrown version of the T-4 euthanasia program before it grows. Whatever it takes to expose and totally discredit those who promote forced euthanasia -- at any level, from judge to doctor to bureaucrat to hospital orderly. I hope to see people who realize we're fighting for the lives of every American, and do so with dedication equal to that of those men to whom the words "lives, fortunes, and sacred honor" meant something. Whatever happens on Feb. 22, mark it as the beginning of Phase II, the day the the fight for life intensified.

Feb. 22 is George Washington's birthday. Look to this great man for inspiration for what's ahead. Like him, begin by praying for the strength to never waver in your convictions. Then, proceed, and never waver.

Nazi Germany. Normal people became evil. A careless thoughtlessness takes over. Careless thoughtlessness as in Nazi Germany works against Terri. That is what we are battling against every day.

The only distinction I would make is that the Judges know exactly what they are doing. They are violating the judicial canons and Florida laws knowing the Judicial Qualifications Commission (3 people) WILL NEVER INVESTIGATE OR HOLD THEM TO ACCOUNT.

Is Florida better under Jeb Bush? At this point, I'd say it's a draw. DOH Scandal, DCF Scandals, Law Enforcement - NON-EXISTENT for the disabled, judges - tyrannical, this is a haven for good old boy mentality.

WHY MUST ALL THESE MEN STARVE ANYONE? THIS IS NOT THE MIDDLE AGES. There are medical advances. A woman just woke up after a 20 year coma.

ARE WE BARBARIANS?

I hope not, but it sure looks that way. FLORIDA, FOR A BARBARIC OLD TIME.

Floriduh voter, do you think if it were a supporter of Lawton Chiles who was facing this "civil" execution that the late Governor Chiles would have intervened, put the person in protective custody, and dared the legislature to impeach him?

I tried Laura before, but I think she is more likely to notice if she gets lots of email, so I'm going to try again, now that you brought her up.

'We have two of the most powerful men in the nation. President Bush and Jeb Bush. No one can tell me that they do not have the power and moral obligation to stop a crime in our state and nation that is in the national and global spotlight in which a person (again in the national spotlight) is about to be subjected to attempted murder via starvation/dehydration to which not even an animal would be subjected or allowed to be subjected to. I say it is a crock of crap and they need to fight this terrorism now!!!'

I'm with you. Each of them are head of the executive branch, and they each in turn supposedly swore an oath to execute the laws of the nation and the state of Florida. Both federal and state laws are being broken. The President is taxing Americans and sending them into war to bring Islamic freedom abroad:

'THE PRESIDENT: Colonel now as far as I'm concerned. (Laughter and applause). Thank you for your service. Thank you for helping make America more secure.

We've got tough work there because, you see, there are terrorists there who would rather kill innocent people than allow for the advance of freedom. That's what your're seeing going on. These people hate freedom, and we love freedom. And that's where the clash occurs. See, we don't think freedom is America's gift to the world. We know that freedom is the Almighty's gift to every man and woman in this world. That's what we know. (Applause.)

And Mackham will tell you there's a lot of brave people there that want to be free, but they've been tortured and terrorized and traumatized by a tyrant. And it's going to take a while for them to understand what freedom is all about. We will stay the course in Iraq. We're not going to be intimidated by thugs or assassins. We're not going to cut and run from the people who long from freedom. Because, you know what? We understand a free Iraq is an historic opportunity to help change the world to be more peaceful. That's what we understand in this country.

I want to appreciate your service. For those of you who've got relatives in the Armed Forces, email them and tell them the Commander-in-Chief is incredibly proud of the sacrifice and service to our country. (Applause.)

Laura reminded mme that one time on the TV screens in the summer of 2000 we saw, "March to War." It is hard to have economic vitality when you're marching to war. That's a negative thought. It's about as negative a thought as you can think about. And so one of the hurdles we had to overcome besides recession, attack, corporate scandal, was the fact that I made the decision to defend us. We marched to war. It was a challenge we had to overcome.....'

Excerpt from article entitled "President Announces New Education Initiatives for Stronger Workforce" whitehouse.gov 2004

Freedom begins at home, Mr. President. Free Terri!

To: Theodore R.

Thank you immensely for post #1779. I had heard Psalm 118:8 was dead center in the Bible, but I could never find the details. I have it marked in my favorite Bible, and directily next to it is this:

v. 22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. [I always wondered who exactly the builders were. I was reading Ezek. 8 the other day, about the 70 elders of the House of Israel and the others. The cross-references took me to Exekiel 11:1 -2 , through Ezek. 14, I guess. One of the names I checked in the concordance had a reference to builder. Strong's #1141 Benaiah = Jah has built, with one of the root words meaning build.]

I have made copies of your post, and placed one in my Bible. Many thanks!

I think it remarkable that you posted this at this time, and also the comment about the failed legal system (judges), because IMO this is exactly what this is all about. God is trying to get our attention. I think a lot of people here know it, but I wonder how many others out there do? I wrote a long post on it the other day, hoping to wake up some lurkers, and debated about posting it until my computer crashed and I lost it. This is an abbreviated one. I guess we all know we need to be pouring out our hearts to God, in addition to making all those phone calls, emails, etc.

1Sa 8:10 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.

1Sa 8:11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: .......

1Sa 8:19 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;

1Sa 8:20 That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.

1Sa 8:21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.

1Sa 8:22 And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.
http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/1Sa/1Sa008.html#19

Deu 32:20 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end [shall be]: for they [are] a very froward generation, children in whom [is] no faith.
http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/Deu/Deu032.html#20
http://www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Deu/32/20.html

Fast-forward to the present:

Mic 4:9 Now why dost thou cry out aloud? [is there] no king in thee? is thy counsellor perished? for pangs have taken thee as a woman in travail.
http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/Mic/Mic004.html#13

I'm praying for this and deliverance for Terri:

Deu 32:36 For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that [their] power is gone, and [there is] none shut up, or left.
http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/Deu/Deu032.html#36

[anytime now, Lord!]

Hbr 10:30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance [belongeth] unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

Psa 96:13 Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

I have felt from the beginning that God has used Terri as a rallying point. The eyes of the whole world are upon her. She is one special lady. I'm praying that God will save Terri, and of course He will be glorified in the process.

TheodoreR, as I said before "The Rule of Law in the State of Florida is an Endangered Species".

(I worked for the Endangerered Species Act while Ron Brown was Commerce Secretary before his plane went down).

I know an endangered species when I see one. FLORIDA'S RULE OF LAW IS AN ENDANGERED SPECIES. The Judges are playing god and it's got to stop or these United States is over.
