Yes, I'm always an offense to those who promote the culture of death. I can live with that...

they've got to be thinking that there are a bunch of far rightwing religious zealots on this website and nothing else

From the founder of Free Republic, Jim Robinson:

As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc

"they've got to be thinking that there are a bunch of far rightwing religious zealots on this website and nothing else"

You obviously missed the words "far" and "zealots" in my comment. I don't see those words in the Robinson quote, do you? But go ahead, believe that this website is as you want it to be. Maybe it now is. Like "Hildy", I'm going to devote a lot more time to other websites, as I believe this one is being taken over by absolutists and those who are trying to snuff out free speech. That takes the "Free" out of Free Republic.

Apparently you missed "pro-life" in Jims comments.

End of minimal conversation. Talk to yourself. I'm going surfing for more hospitable Republican sites with hopefully no Schiavo threads like the ones here on FR. Will wait until the Schiavo issue is resolved and will then check back to see if anything has changed. Hopefully that will be the case. Bye bye.

What a whiney statement.
Just because you meet disagreement, you'll leave?
And just because your statement making a broadbrush smear against all of FR isn't tolerated, you'll cut and run?

Tell Hoverbug I said hello.

It's difficult to understand why people don't err on the side of life.

You *assume* that wasn't done and you *assume* there is a "life"... which is my point. It appears the responsible medical opinions believe she is in a PVS (i.e. brain dead).

Basically, this could be litigated for a very long time and the Judge has correctly noted that and put an end to it.

To their credit, the parents obviously love and miss the daughter. It's a tragic thing to loose a child, but all the litigation in the world is not likely to restore her to them.

The husband may believe his is acting in the best interest of a woman whom he loved... or he may be a bastard. I can't say what's in his heart, and neither can anyone else.

If he is what some people say and there is a just God, he will be held accountable.

Seems they sent abortion to the Catholic NONO bin with that first statement.

It is hard, not to react. But OhioA is right. They want ATTENTION. Ignoring them is the most damaging thing you can do.

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Advice is worth what you pay for it..... blah, blah, blah.

How are you all ? Hope things are going good in your lives.

It's all because of the judge.

There is a coverup of previous DCF investigation.. Go to www.theempirejournal.com

This is the most recent article http://www.theempirejournal.com/030105091_schiavo_judge_greer_su.htm

Too much dirt in the articles there from the past week to be swept under the rug any longer. Please go read some of them. FYI we can only post the links and title on FR.

Also Conversation with Terri

Recently, Roman Catholic Robert Bork wrote in the Wall Street Journal:

"The Supreme Court has created a more permissive abortion regime than any state had enacted; prohibited any exercise or symbol of religion touching even remotely upon government; made the death penalty extremely difficult to impose and execute; disabled states from suppressing pornography; catered to the feminist agenda, including outlawing state all-male military schools; created a labyrinth of procedures making criminal prosecutions ever more difficult; used racial classifications to exclude children from their neighborhood public schools; perverted the political process by upholding campaign finance limits that shift political power to incumbents, journalists and labor unions; licensed the advocacy of violence and law violation; and protected as free speech computer-generated child pornography. These decisions are activist, i.e., not plausibly related to the actual Constitution."

This man should be one of the judicial nominees, the man is brilliant, honest and articulate and an enemy to the left wing fascists of America.

I don't *assume* it. I believe the affadavits of doctors and nurses.

It appears the responsible medical opinions believe she is in a PVS

There's the rub. You believe Schiavos doctors who spent a very short time with her. I believe Dr Hammesfahr who spent 10 hours with her and says that Terri was sedated when the PVS crowd saw her. It's ok for us to disagree.

Basically, this could be litigated for a very long time and the Judge has correctly noted that and put an end to it.

You have faith in the judge that I do not. I've read too much about him to be comfortable with trusting him. He deems hearsay by Schiavos brother and sister in law as credible and allows it into evidence but in the same hearing rules hearsay from Terri's friend and her brother not credible so it's never heard by a higher court. These sorts of things have happened repeatedly.

I can't say what's in his heart, and neither can anyone else.

Actions speak louder than words. All that's needed is some common sense. Grandma used to say, "don't listen to what they say, watch what they do".

There's a lot of detail in all these threads about Terri Schiavo. But, there is one thing missing - there is a reason why there is a separate word for LAW and a separate word for JUSTICE.

The politics of this are staggering, and despicable. Let's not forget what this is all about - a person. Leave the rest of it for some other issue.

No icechips even. And no natural sunlight (blinds drawn), can't go outside, even though she is strong enough to do so.

What is wrong with this "judge"?

Give me a break...nothing they have done has been illegal. you obviously don't agree with it, but it sure as hell ain't illegal. This wasn't done in the dead of night...this has been seven freakin years in the making. At least come up with a better argument.

He knows that if Terri is proven not-PVS, he'll be in big trouble, so he has to prevent it.
