We must take our country back from the judges, or our entire system of government will be euthanized. If a fricking judge can thumb his nose at Congress then the citizens should be able to thumb their noses at any order issued by that judge.
As far as taking the country back from the judges, that shouldn't be too difficult. After all there are a hell of a lot more of us than these little black robed tin horn dictators ;-)

Mark is right on.
Our court system is based on the Jewish Sanhedrin, and our country is built on Judeo-Christian morals. The first tenet of these morals, Judaically, is to Choose Life.
This case does not have a living will which states "Should I become brain-damaged, at some point pull out my feeding tube and let me starve to death."
Spouses should not have the final say. They are always the first suspects in someone's murder. If there is no Living Will that clearly states, not only DNR decisions but also at what point the individual would like to be starved and dehydrated, then we have to as a country Choose Life for that person.
If our courts come down on the side of allowing others to aid or abet medical decisions to promote death, we lower ourselves morally as a country. The fear of elderly Dutch who try to avoid hospitalization when they need medical care is real. Their society has told them that they are a useless burden, and so many of them have been put to death like dogs.
If we as a nation choose to respect the life of all innocents, even those who cannot speak for themselves, it only raises us as a country. Without explicit instructions, I daresay we need a federal ruling to allow life to continue. But of course, this butts up against abortion laws.
Is that it?
Do people want Terri to die so that "Choose Life, IF It's Convenient To Others" is our motto?

Excellent, Mark. Keep up the good work you are doing.
To: holdonnow
He quickly dismissed the relevance of the House subpoenas with this statement: "I have had no cogent reason why the committee should intervene." The state judge, therefore, contended that the House had to convince him of the legitimacy of its subpoena to compel witnesses to appear so it can conduct hearings. I should think even the liberals in congress would be up in arms about this. Some day they are going to want to subpoena a conservative witness to come before their committee. All that conservative has to do is find a friendly judge to say he doesn't see why that person has to appear. If this is allowed to stand, Congress has lost it's power to compel witnesses to testify.

Mark Levin and Laura Ingraham are the future of conservative talk radio. They both have the Limbaughesque ability to deliver conservative arguements with an acerbic wit.

Outstanding. The line in the sand has been drawn. Bring it on.
To: stan_25
Exactly. The only way to do that is to abolish judicial review and confine judges to carrying out the law. Questions about the constitutionality of a law should rest with the elected representatives of the people. Now you may ask - what if they transgress the Constitution? The answer is voters can replace them at their pleasure. Whereas under our present scheme if a judge usurps the jurisdiction of the elected branches of government and makes his own his laws from the bench, he is accountable to no one. Judicial despotism makes a mockery of the entire idea of the separation of powers. Its time to restore the judiciary to its proper role as intended by the Framers of our Constitution.

Hitler would be proud of this judge and those who support him.
A true story -
My Grandfather's brother had a high fever and his brain swelled. The end result was that he was retarded. His mother loved him just the same as her other sons. My Grandfather came to the U.S. in the 20's and later married my Grandmother from the same town after they were established here.
Meanwhile in Germany Hitler came to power. Contrary to what you are told not all were sold on him. There was some suspicion about him. He'd have his minions go to the towns to "help" parents with less than perfect children, disabled and retarded and "take over their burden". Some parents allowed it. Then after awhile they didn't hear any more about their children. They were being murdered. Their crime was being less than perfect.
My Grandfather's Mom hid her son in a wine cellar during the war. Later he was joined by another child from the same village that was less than perfect - he too was retarded. The entire village kept quiet about this. They all knew one another and knew they were being hidden. They were also suspicious of rumors they had heard and also not entirely sold on Hitler.
He didn't just kills Jews and Gypsies. He killed his own who he viewed as inferior.
Anyway I see the EXACT same thing going on now with Terri, older people and babies - abortion. History is REPEATING itself. Of course our brilliant public school educated don't learn factual history so there is no connection to this. There is now an obligation to teach them about this since they won't get this in public schools today. Today, allot of folks want to play god. They will let everyone else BUT God play god. It is the day of extreme self esteem, self empowerment, self indulgence and just plain callous selfishness.

The more the House resists judicial usurpation, the more unhinged its critics in academia and the mainstream media will become -- accusing it of politicizing the independent judiciary, intimidating judges, and so forth How true. Trust Levin to tell it the way it is, I love the guy.
Of course if this was a Democrat controlled Congress issuing a subpoena to a conservative judge in order to stop him or her from blocking a "mercy killing", i.e., murder, or an abortion, i.e., murder, the same unhinged critics in academia and media would be railing and foaming at the mouth in outrage, and calling for the judge's impeachment and subsequent imprisonment.
Hypocrisy, thy name is LIBERAL.

"This is a typical slippery slope argument, applied only to Congress but not to the judiciary."
Well Mark, at least you didn't dispute that it DOES apply to Congress in this case.
"There's nothing in writing here, no living will, no witnesses -- just heresay."
I believe their WAS a witness - her friend Joan, but besides that minor point - would he require that a husband and wife sign separate agreements for EVERY intersection of their lives ? I suppose we could just do away with the concept of marriage in a legal sense and supply each couple with a stack of legal forms.

I think Levin no longer posts to free republic because of criticism of Hannity. (But I agree with you).
To: Skip Ripley
Hannity is an intellectual piker by comparison No, he aspires to rise to the level of intellectual piker. To be an intellectual piker one must first have an intellect. Sometimes Sean can be almost embarrassing to watch when he's matched against that rare liberal guest who actually knows what he or she is talking about.
As "they" would say in Texas, Hannity is all hat and no cattle IMHO. As I would say in Georgia, let's have more prime time media exposure for Mark Levin and less for Sean Hannity.

No, not every "intersection" of their lives--just those that involve life and death should involve a proper written document. Is this a situation where a husband faithfully carries out his wife's instructions, or another of the innumerable cases of spousal murder? Too bad that the legislative and judicial branches are working at cross purposes here.
