In typical fashion...TU didn't even reference the news conference in the title of the article thus denying it the newsworthiness it deserved.
They got Jim King in it though...
State Sen. Jim King, R-Jacksonville, called the request an obvious tactic.
"The plan seems to be to elongate this as much as they can, and there's going to be all kinds of that in the coming weeks," King said.

I have my private thoughts right now about certain behavior he may exhibit if and when his current "problem" is out of the way. And I wouldn't be surprised if those behaviors come to pass, as well.

I was ELATED when I Read that the Schlinder's have Filed for a Divorce for Terri!
This has been done before, maybe twice or more, and always George W. "Haman" Greer has stood behind the "sanctity" of "marriage." Greer won't like this being filed again. He just may take "drastic" action!
My Reply:
Could you be a bit more clear. Did Judge Greer permit the divorce or stop the divorce? Which would you say he would do for Terri?
Bishop Lynch had better get his act together.
I don't know this man, but it sounds like he is more committed to liberal politics than to his church.
Keep 'em coming!
Fatigue is our friend...LOL...NOT!!
George W. "Haman" Greer believes that Michael R. Schiavo is a "caring and loving husband" who wants only "the best" for "his wife" Terri. Unfortunately, for Terri, "Haman" is popular in Pinellas Co. FL -- 65 percent in 2004! The O.T. "Haman" was not as fortunate as "Haman" Greer has been thus far.
How many judicial candidates seeking reelection don't break 75% of the vote?
Especially given that Greer cheated, while Govan was bound by very restrictive campaign rules, a 67% victory doesn't seem that impressive.
More than civil disobedience, masses of people need to storm the hospice overwhelming the staff and 'guards' and 'in mass' remove Terri from the prison --- anyone remember Elian Gonzales?
I do not really care about your opinion.
When someone says that "Greer has always stood behind the sanctity of marriage", that means he refuses to allow a divorce action.
Theodore is being sarcastic about the words, "sanctity of marriage", because the hypocrite Greer does not seem to care that Michael is living with another woman and fathering two children by her.
This fact should legally disqualify Michael from being Terri's Guardian, but Greer refuses to hear that motion in court, thereby allowing Michael to get away with defiling the sanctity of marriage while ordering his wife to be abused/neglected and ultimately starved/dehydrated to death.
Most of us don't care for your death campaigning, either. But that doesn't stop you, so why should FReeper "Brotherhood" be intimidated by your dislikes? Bottom line, no informed person is gonna fall for your story that these are just the facts, no spin nor agenda aimed toward killing Terri. No indeed.
Please take care of your fiber deficiency.
Thanks, honestly I didnt get the sarcasm in the original post so I appreciate a dummed down explination.

TERRI SCHIAVO IS EACH OF US
SENTENCED TO DIE AS USELESS
By: Dorothy Anne Seese
Don't even consider the idea that Terri Schiavo's case is either unique or particular to her family in this Machiavellian age. It is neither. An individual ordered by a court, sentenced to death by starvation because she is "a useless feeder" is each and every one of us under similar circumstances, a human over whom the state has exercised the power of life and death absent any crime and punishment being involved. The punishment is for being useless, a burden to the state, considered a soulless offspring of the detestable theory of evolution that renders all of us just an accident in primordial slime.
She is me because I am disabled with a spinal fracture. She is every maimed and "useless" veteran of the wars in which America has involved itself for political reasons and left behind the unnamed military personnel, some teenagers, whose lives will be spent as disabled persons requiring continual medical care. She is each elderly person whose life has been spent going to school, getting married, having children, being a productive worker for the government's tax program and a contributor to Social Security. She is you and me and all of these people who were disabled by an accident at work, at home, in an automobile.
She is an American who was once an able-bodied person welcomed by the gods of the state. Now she has been sentenced to die as a useless feeder.
We don't have miracles any more, and this nation surely has spit in the face of God with its disregard for the sanctity of life. Sanctity of life, permanence of marriage and stability of the home belonged to some ancient age from around 1970 and prior when we had values and didn't need to broadcast it for reassurance that the lie will stick. Values indeed. If there is any value higher than that of the sanctity of life and the sovereign will of God, then even God has not made that proclamation!
America is utilitarian now, or Hegelian, or anything the government wants to brand it.
We're anything except free. We aren't human, we have no soul, and the state owns us and the children of those who are parents. Then people write and ask, "how do you figure we're not free?" Duh.
The leadership and the high courts of this nation have brought upon it the beginning of the judgment of Almighty God and the intensity of that judgment will increase with every wrong this nation perpetrates upon its own citizens and those in other sovereign nations under a translucent veil of "spreading freedom."
Beware of following the philosophy of a government that has no respect for life or belief in God. Those are elements in the statement of faith of our forefathers who built this nation. Even the atheists of their time weren't as crass as the "egalitarian" leadership of today, wicked judges and pretenders to the throne of God who will perish with their hubris.
A generation of liars in high places will bring the nation and its people to ruin, history sets its seal to that thesis.
Think about this, prospective parents, Social Security recipients, those with parents in nursing homes, and those in hazardous occupations (including driving a motor vehicle in expressway traffic): will the state take a newborn with Down's Syndrome and give it a lethal injection? Will those who paid for Social Security "insurance" stolen by the government for foreign war meddling be "vaccinated" with a lethal fluid? Will your parents suddenly have a stroke and then die while you are at work, or in the middle of the night? I received a call in the middle of the night that my mother had a second stroke, but was never apprised of the first. I was injured at work and discharged by a doctor on friendly terms with my employer as "medically stable with no permanent impairment" when I had two spinal fractures.
It can happen to anyone, yes it can happen to you, and the anyones and you and I no longer have any say in our "representative" government. Ask the people on the street if they feel adequately represented. Look at the articles, the statistics, you will find that the people want one thing and the government wants another. Guess who wins?
Terri Schiavo is one individual, a living soul who is about to suffer death by starvation at the mandate of the court of "justice" as it is now interpreted in this godless land. If our military starved an enemy captive to death there would be an international uproar and courts martial. But a helpless woman whose husband wishes to remarry? A burden to the state? Not a problem for the judges to order such a person to die.
But remember, she is not just one individual.
She is all of us, each of us, one of us.
Her judgment and sentence is ours also.
There is but one judgment for perverse judges and evildoers to fear, and that is the final judgment of God, when true justice is revealed against all unrighteousness, in this land and around the world.
We have that on infallible Authority from the Judge Himself. Amen!

BIASED ASSOCIATED PRESS REPORT DISTRESSES TERRI SCHIAVO'S FAMILY
by MNA PRESS
Clearwater, FL According to a LifeNews.com report, The family of Terri Schiavo is upset by an Associated Press news report that appeared in hundreds of newspapers on Thursday and Friday. Bob and Mary Schindler say the report makes it appear that eating disorders caused Terri's collapse in 1990 when she did not have such problems. They say other evidence shows physical abuse could have been the cause. Written by reporter Vickie Chachere, the AP news story says the "lost lesson" in the Terri Schiavo controversy is combating eating disorders. "It is a twist lost on no one close to the case: A woman who is said to have struggled with an eating disorder is now in the middle of a court battle over whether her feeding tube should be removed so that she can starve to death," Chachere writes. In a statement released Friday, Schindler spokeswoman Pamela Hennessy says "there was never a determination by any court nor the Florida Department of Health that Terri Schiavo ever suffered from any eating disorder, bulimia, anorexia or compulsive behavior that would lead to a heart failure at the age of 26." Though Michael, Terri's estranged husband, accused Terri's general practitioner of ignoring a supposed eating disorder, Florida's Department of Health cleared him of wrongdoing or negligence in the case. "Chachere cites not one medical document that would affirm her careless contention that Terri Schiavo was an irresponsible dieter or a compulsive victim of an eating disorder," Hennessy said

America keeps sinking with each passing generation.

Schiavo deserves chance to live
"Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" is probably one of the most famous phrases in American history. But what does that mean for Terri Schiavo? She has the right to these things just like any other American.
It is vital to note Schiavo is not in a coma or vegetative state, but brain damaged and by no means brain dead. If the courts allow her to be killed, this sets a horrifying precedent and endangers the lives of all disabled people. If Schiavo is killed, it will be murder.
The fact that a person is unable to speak is no reason to kill her. At birth, a baby is not killed because it cannot speak. Schiavo's dependency on a feeding tube is not a reason to kill her. Anyone deprived of food and water would soon die. Why should this woman be starved to death?
If Schiavo is killed, it will be a sad day for all of America. We must be a society that welcomes life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all people.
