They said they will reconvene at 5 pm EST.

I am glad they are reconvening, but considering that Terri is starving, one would think, they could have reconvened at 9 am instead.

This might signal that the Senate will adopt the house's bill.

Was it the House's bill that was the stronger of the two?

I believe the House Bill was the stronger of the two.

After doing what it takes to save Terry's life, they should declare Judge Greer in contempt of Congress and haul him up to D.C. in chains.

Yes. Most definitely.

How would all this apply to the thousands of others out there in a similar situation to Terri? Particular those with living wills? Is this the federal government's business?

"After doing what it takes to save Terry's life, they should declare Judge Greer in contempt of Congress and haul him up to D.C. in chains."

EXACTLY. And as a consequence of that, I know there will be no shortage of FLA attorneys petitioning the FLA Bar to DISBARR this A*hole Judge.

Greer needs to be dealt with - but is there any way of doing it besides the contempt of Congress charge? Just curious...

I also just received this message from Congressman Steve King: " I just left DeLay's office

I will do a CNN debate tonight

Things have improved and I see a path for her."

IF that's in the form of a motion, I'll 2nd that.

Now all in favor, say aye.

Wouldn't want to interfere with their Saturday morning golf dates and handball games and the like.
