That's basically what my rep's assistant just told me. He said to call the Senate, but didn't they just adjourn for their "Easter Break"? I feel sick.
I'm not sure how this is going to end but I do know that the Lord's will, will be done. He can touch the hearts of "more than 2" if that's the plan. Not a problem.
The FLORIDA SENATE meets tomorrow morning is the last I heard. The conflict with congress is new since the last time I was here at FR. How is it that FR knows more than the MSM again? Well, President Bush did a statement that he supports the Schindlers. Was that window dressing or in anticipation of signing something?
We seem to be hurting for information and getting more afraid by the minute. Please fill us in if you can.
Huh? I though the Florida senate didn't pass the bill. This is getting confusing.
Because we get our information from the best sources!
Well, I guess they think it makes them LOOK like they tried.: (
JIM SEBESTA IS A FRIEND OF JUDGE GREER. I called his office quite a few times and all they ever made was excuses. Really disgusting.
That's what's precisely pissing me off at this very minute.
That isn't what I was telling you. We don't need more than two. In the House, only two people objecting to a measure that is designed to help only one person, can stop that measure from passing. Even if everybody else wanted it, two people could stop that kind of bill in the House. That is the kind of bill the Senate just passed. It cannot pass the House, CD. It would take only two members objecting to it to stop it. The Senate has to pass the House version of the bill, in order to help Terri, because it is impossible for the House to pass it. Way more than two people are already violently opposed to the bill. There hearts will not be touched. They do not care, and will never care if Terri dies. They are like Felos and Greer...pro death.
House, Senate Disagree on Brain Damage Case
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate on Thursday passed an emergency bill aimed at prolonging the life of a brain-damaged Florida woman but the House adjourned before the two chambers could try to reconcile different versions.
The Senate by voice vote passed a narrowly-drafted bill allowing Schiavo's parents to seek help from a federal court before a Friday 1 p.m. EST deadline to remove a feeding tube. They have fought Schiavo's husband Michael in Florida state courts for seven years over her fate.
The House passed a broader bill late on Wednesday night, which would potentially take other end-of-life cases into the federal court system.
That figures! Well they'll be back to work in the morning.
We've got to hammer Florida Senate and U.S. Senate big time.
The Senate made the decision to discuss a different bill than the House passed! That point was emphasized to me, so I'm not sure who made the decision as to what bill they would discuss!!
Let's all go to this page and start emailing every single one of the Senators and tell them to pass a bill identical to the house!! They're not going to play politics with someone's life!

Then in the morning get on the phone! We'll shut the place down if we have to in order to get it done.

He meant it of course. How was he to know how badly the Senate would foul this up. They brought forward a completely different bill, maybe thinking they did not have votes for the House version, I don't know. In any event, the House cannot pass the kind of bill the Senate passed, because it was only to help one person, Terri. In the House, if only two members object to that type of bill, it is dead in the water. And many more than two violently oppose it. But how was President Bush to know the total foulup that the Congress would pull?
Which reminds me I was told there were 2 dems who messed things up....
If they don't get back in the morning and finish this, everyone of them needs to be put in the spotlight this weekend, while eating and making merry while Terri does without.
Well, GWB should call them into special session immediately.
Your prayers have such a calming effect:') Thanks
Amen Pegita! My first to you, and I need it.
