Because he cheated in his re-election campaign.
That is the problem here...tin foil, un-corroborated accusations, on and on. I have spent hours and hours on the net trying to find documentation of the many accusations against Greer, Michael Schiavo, et al and haven't found it. The only thing I know for a fact is Felos is pretty nutty (based on his book). Other than that...zilch.
You say it. I say it is evil versus good. What do you call it? Is that tin hat?
I didn't think you would take the easy way out of it, but you did.
I'd figure out a way to capture him, then improson him for seven days without food or water. Then I'd let him go. If he tried to have me prosecuted for torture, I'd play the Larry King interview where he claims starvation/dehydration is painless, and argue that if starvation/dehydration is a painless way to die, then non-fatal starvation/dehydration cannot be considered torture.
So glad your grandmother is going to be okay. May God grant her many more healthy years to love and be loved by her family.
You know what I find amazing? That so many people will go along with Terri's euthanasia just because an estranged husband says he remembered 7 years later that Terri wouldn't want to live "like that". Despite the fact that in 1990 feeding tubes were normal care and no one would think that 15 years later, simply feeding someone would be viewed as artificial life support. WHERE is common sense?
In the Michael Ross (the serial rapist murderer sentenced to death 17 years ago in Connecticut) the Federal Judge permitted a last minute argument that Ross "might" be insane because he had been on death row for so long. Of course he was on death row for so long because of his protracted appeals but that did not faze the court. When it comes to death, the court can allow any arguments to be raised as long as the subject is a murderer, not someone handicapped or one whose life the judge deems not worthy of prolonging.
Jack the Dripper appears like an angel of mercy compared to this bunch.
Jeb hasn't shown cowardice yet. He signed Terri's Bill; says he supports another now; and his DCF is trying to investigate.
I agree, though, it will take courage to physically intervene - - which is what they must do, if Greer's decision today isn't quickly overturned. But this is precisely why I'd like to see Rush and other big-time conservative talk radio people focus on this case - - - to give Jeb Bush some cover. As it is, the mainstream media is doing PR for judge Greer 24/7 -- we need the conservative media to respond in kind, not obsess over Michael Jackson's pajama pants.
Further, Terri has never been represented by anyone who had subpoena power, that didn't want her dead.
Yes ma'am.
Absolutely correct.
So, we, are as 'blind' by not being able to see for ourselves, as the judge.
Yeah, well, all I can say is Jesus can't come back too soon.
You've already been told by a freeper or two that Rush HAS talked about this. But you won't acknowledge that because you WANT freepers to be angry at Rush. You're so transparent you're see through.
Names mean something. Mary was TOLD what to name her Son. Others in the Bible were, as well. Concerning still others in the Bible, it was pointed out that their behavior was fore-ordained by God, that their name bears that out their deeds....numerous examples are in the Bible about the importance and significance of one's name, even if that importance or significance wasn't apparent until the "proper" time.
8mm thought it was worth investigating if name importance/coincidence was possibliy at work here. I, for one, don't discount name importance, no matter how "coincidental" it may appear. I find it more than odd, however, that the historical root word for Felos takes on such parallels to what we can observe from his behavior, the very person who has the weird dreams about seeing people...and other bizarreness concern his own self-proclaimed non-Christian heavy-duty tap into a spirituality definitely unChristian.
But the discussion about Terri should primarily revolve around the issues and facts in question about Terri and the applicable Florida law.
Greer is doing his job given the law he has in front of him. I might not have made the same findings of fact that he did, but I didn't sit through the testimony.
No, you took the easy way out. Come back to earth and we can talk.
Which Freepers? No Freepers that I know that listen to Rush has ever heard him mention her. We've had discussions about it. Can you say who heard it?
I utterly reject that. Maybe we can argue whether last names mean anything on a religion thread, but to introduce this as an ARGUMENT in a legal case is utterly preposterous to me, and I'm sure to nearly everyone in America.
I agree. I have read endless docs for this case. God and Judge Greer have alot more info than I do. When I read her discharge report(from 1990) and reasearched the diagnosis, I saw the gravity of the brain injury. I also believe the judge has followed the law as written. The responsibility lies with the legistlature, and I'm not sure the new law they propose is quite fair to people like my husband, who has made his wishes clear and expects me to honor them.
