President's Statement on Terri Schiavo
White House ^ | March 17, 2005 | President Bush

Posted on 03/17/2005 9:51:42 PM PST by West Coast Conservative

The case of Terri Schiavo raises complex issues. Yet in instances like this one, where there are serious questions and substantial doubts, our society, our laws, and our courts should have a presumption in favor of life. Those who live at the mercy of others deserve our special care and concern. It should be our goal as a nation to build a culture of life, where all Americans are valued, welcomed, and protected - and that culture of life must extend to individuals with disabilities.

What did you expect him to say?

If he gets a bill, he'll sign it.

The words were good and said what needed to be said. Many words can loose meaning. I am glad that he took a stand for the the right of the disabled person and for life.

Of course that's it.

This is the President of the United States.

Acting on behalf of one woman.

And phrasing everything well.

The statement carefully vetted so it does not interfere with other ongoing efforts.

It's well done.

The 23rd Psalm --- Translated to Terri's Present Reality !!!

The Lord is Terri's Shepherd --- That's Relationship !!!

She shall not want --- That's Supply !!!

He maketh her to lie down in green pastures --- That's Rest !!!

He leadeth her beside the still waters --- That's Refreshment !!!

He restoreth her soul --- That's Healing !!!

He leadeth her in the paths of righteousness --- That's Guidance !!!

For His name sake --- That's Purpose !!!

Yea, though Terri walk through the valley of the shadow of death --- That's Testing !!!

She will fear no evil --- That's Protection !!!

For Thou art with her --- That's Faithfulness !!!

Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort her --- That's Discipline !!!

Thou preparest a table before Terri in the presence of her enemies--- That's Hope !!!

Thou annointest her head with oil --- That's Consecration !!!

Her cup runneth over --- That's Abundance !!!

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow Terri all the days of her life --- That's Blessing !!!

And she will dwell in the house of the Lord --- That's Security!!!

Forever --- That's Eternity !!!

Congressional Subpoena --- That's Deliverance !!!

Face it ---- The Lord is crazy about Terri !!!

Otherwise --- Why else would He continuously deliver her from
the evil hands of her attempted murderers ???
