Terri's Freepers,

Judge George Greer denied Terri's parents' Motion for a Stay to protect their daughter's life while there are still pending issues in this LIFE AND DEATH MATTER. In addition the Department of Children and Family Services made a surprise visit to the court hearing the other day and asked Judge Greer if they could approach the bench. Judge Greer denied DCF the opportunity to speak. DCF asked for 60 days to conduct a complete investigation of allegations that have surfaced in the form of a Complaint to their agency.

What was set in motion instead? On Friday, February 25th, Judge Greer REFUSED TO issue another Stay because he was "not comfortable" issuing a say to protect a Ward of the State but instead "set a date certain" (on his calendar at least, not on mine) to BEGIN THE BARBARIC, ANTI-AMERICAN, STARVATION-DEHYDRATION SLOW MURDER OF TERRI.

Attorney Gibbs for Terri's parents held a press conference after J. Greer's order that was so tastefully written to indicate that "he was giving the Schindlers until March 18th so they could "prepare for Last Rites." Attorneys Gibbs called this ruling and prior rulings "Hitler-resque". Indeed.

If Judge Greer wasn't LEGALIZING EUTHANASIA in his courtroom, why any need for Last Rites? Greer's urgency to fulfill this killing places urgency on every one of us to lobby Governor Bush, Florida's House and Florida's Senate.

A Judge in America is ordering the manner of someone's death, a disabled woman who is healthy but needs rehabilitation.

Time is short so we don't really have time to get into Greer's mind to see why he is Florida's Til of the Hun.

What can we do?

1. LOBBY TO SAVE TERRI

2. HELP BUMP THIS THREAD.

3. POST ARTICLES YOU SEE ABOUT TERRI.

4. VISIT PINELLAS COUNTY FLORIDA AND VIGIL WITH US AT HOSPICE WOODSIDE.

Finally, the Pope has no Living Will. He will be SAFE as long as he stays away from George Greer's courtroom. The Pope is in our thoughts and prayers and he knows of Terri. He wants Terri to be freed from oppression and from a painless death by starvation-dehyration.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO EVERY DAY, THE PAY ISN'T VERY GOOD BUT THE FRINGE BENEFITS ARE THE GREATEST. You are Great Americans and liberty is Terri's and freedom from oppression. Freepers, that is the big payoff if we continue our daunting task.

Terri's family is grateful to you and all of your prayers are being heard by the Giver of Life.

If DCF capitulates to George W. Greer, wouldn't it be seen statewide as having lost face, something state agencies always avoid, even if they are wrong on an issue? The DCF should take custody as soon as Greer rebuffs it, and he surely will rebuff it Thursday.

Plans Afoot to Keep Schiavo Feeding Tube
By MITCH STACY
ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) - Florida's social services agency and Republican state lawmakers acted on two fronts Wednesday to block the March 18 removal of a feeding tube for a woman at the center of a contentious right-to-die case.

The Department of Children & Family Services sought to intervene in the case to investigate allegations of abuse and neglect by Terri Schiavo's husband, while Republican lawmakers crafted a bill requiring that incapacitated people be given water and nutrition unless a living will directs otherwise.

Lawyers for DCF told Judge George W. Greer the agency wants as much as a 60-day delay in the removal of the feeding tube to investigate the abuse allegations.

DCF supervisor Susan McPhee testified the accusations include denying the severely brain-damaged woman some medical treatment and therapy, and isolating her in her room with the blinds closed.

"This is a heightened situation because we are talking about the life of Terri Schiavo," DCF attorney Kelly McKibben said.

Michael Schiavo's attorney, George Felos, argued DCF has no legal right to interfere and Greer has no jurisdiction to allow it. He said he believes the agency's last-minute attempt is politically motivated, especially since dozens of previous complaints to DCF have failed to yield any evidence of abuse.

"DCF is simply acting as an arm of the executive branch to try to undo a court order they don't like," Felos told reporters.

Greer said he would rule on the DCF request as early as Thursday.

In Tallahassee, a House committee approved a bill requiring doctors to provide nutrition and hydration to incapacitated patients who didn't leave an advance directive. It passed 7-4 on a party-line vote and still needs approval from two more committees before facing the full House.

Also Wednesday, Greer denied two motions by the woman's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler. One asked for new medical tests to determine if the 41-year-old woman has more brain activity than previously thought. The other asked that the order allowing removal of the woman's feeding tube be thrown out because the judge mistakenly discounted the testimony of a witness during a trial to determine Terri Schiavo's end-of-life wishes.

Michael Schiavo contends his wife, who collapsed 15 years ago, suffered severe brain damage and would not want to be kept alive artificially. Her parents say she had no such death wish and believe she can get better with rehabilitation.

"Ms and Felos both now defer to "the court has ruled", the court wouldn't have ruled if they had not pushed it into court. They must think people are stupid!"

Prediction: sooner or later one or both will say something like, "The court said it was the law. I had no choice. My hands were tied". And then hope that people are stupid enough to buy it.

[ruoflaw]

You are in our thoughts and prayers!

[Chocolate Rose]

Amen. Amen.

Bump for prayers for Floriduh Voter.

[eeevil conservative]

I have spent the last 6 months at a different blog.

It was my first blog.

I thought I was among those that felt like I did. about a month ago, I realized that I was not.

Then aI found you all here at Freep.

When I see posts like 3806, I know I am home. It is great to be HOME!

Thanks to all of you for your kindness and the warmth and welcome you have given me.

I am certainly praying for Floriduh Voter.

[ruoflaw]

I swear I wrote florida voter....oh well, she might get a kick out it.

[DJ MacWoW]

Nah, keep a little in reserve "for those special times when only sarcasm will do."

Sounds like a Hallmark card or something, doesn't it? :o)

Yes! LOL!!!

[Lauren BaRecall]

Yes, that's exactly it.

[DJ MacWoW]

I saw your tagline, and thought, "Wow, astronauts are on artificial life support...."

THAT is rather a thought, isn't it.

[eeevil conservative]

WHo the heck is this goof ball on O'Reilly???

He ahs lost his mind!

TERRI'S BROTHER HOPEFUL ABOUT NEW LEGISLATION AIMED AT SAVING SCHIAVO

http://www.ewtn.com/vnews/getstory.asp?number=54528

(EXCERPTS)

Lori Kehoe, Congressional liaison for the National Right to Life told CNA that she is encouraged by yesterday's introduction of the bill.

Basically, she said, "[representatives] fell into one of two categories: those who were extremely supportive of the bill and those who were very ambivalent and didn't really know all the facts."

Kehoe said that it was very powerful for the representatives to meet Schiavo's parents and "to have to look into their eyes and see that this is a human being, not just another test case."

She noted that one of the few harsh reactions came from Rep. Nancy Johnson (R-CT) who "looked right at [Schiavo's brother] and said 'that's not life...how long has she been in that coma and how much is it costing us?'"

"It was really bad", Kehoe noted.

[Lauren BaRecall]

Yes, I believe he'll rule "no" because he's a fool.

[Chocolate Rose]

Welcome Home ! :-)

[tutstar]

I think he's finally gone too far. He's turned them all down.

You know there are plenty of examples in the Bible when something appeared to be very bad but worked out for good, prime example Joseph. I'm believing that all these NO's from Greer the Grinch are going to be very good for Terri because it's going to force the hand of the more powerful.

[eeevil conservative]

THank you!

[tutstar]

But, do we know what day they actually began their investigation? If they're waiting for Greer's ruling before they begin and he tells them no, they should take her the morning of the 18th, that will give Terri max time, and allow the legislature more time to work.

[DJ MacWoW]

He actually answered me!

Dear Ms. xxxxxx,

I don't eat breakfast, thanks. And you can thank our lawmakers (the very same ones in a snit over ''activists judges'' who carry out their laws) for enacting a law that specifically makes feeding tubes an officially designated form of ""life support'' in this state.

The judges have no choice but to follow the law as it is written by our predominantly pro-life Legislature. And good reporters have no choice but to report the facts accurately and fairly, which strangely enough is why no one is happy with the media.

Thanks for your interest.

Dave Sommer

I will, of course, answer him and try to open a dialog.
