US House of Rep. in an Extraordinary Sunday night Session [Schiavo] (Bush Signs Schiavo bill)

Posted on 03/20/2005 6:03:40 PM PST by FoxPro

This is an unprecedented session. The Congress is meeting to save one persons life (in real time).

The only reason the Democrats are agreeing to this is that they don’t want to be known as the party that killed Terri.

This is American history happening before your eyes.

I am tired of poll-driven politics, too. I was just making a point that the Republicans are not just cynically using this as a political issue, which is what they were being accused of.

msnbc broke into chris matthews program to show three ambulances arriving at Terri's hospice. They thought they were there to take her to a hospital. Questined if it was to get tube reinserted. They were sort of excited. Then they said judges, federal, were all on call in fla and appellate court fed judges in Atlanta waiting on stand by. I think things may come down very fast!!

Protect the rights of disabled citizens. Must act on behalf of Terri and all those who cannot speak for themselves.

YOu know I am finally getting fed up with polls. Our President doesn't give a hoot about polls, and doing the right thing doesn't require approval of a poll.Thank God.


Yep and about 45% of Germans voted for Hitler and the Majority of Americans once favored Slavery and the massacre of the Indians. Even if you could trust polls to be accurate, which is highly doubtful when you consider how the Hysteric Left manufactured polls to get the result they want, it does make them guides to what is right.

"Stay out of my family!!!! " Nice soundbite, but totally irrelevant.

So, that Dem would clear the way for sexual abuse of minors by family members? Nice shot, there, Democrats. That's it. Just keep shooting yourselves in the foot on national TV.

Somehow, I get the impression you're saying they shouldn't have brought it forward at all.

You got it right Stinky is for death.

Well, part of the problem is the misinformation about this case spread by the mainstream media.

I doubt that they would be allowed to play the tape. It is very rare for anyone, other than a Representative, to speak in the House. Only on invitation - president, foreign leaders, etc..

I am cynical.

Yes, and it's not one of your more endearing characteristics.

It's amazing to me that you're blaming the Republicans for any of this when if not for Democrat obstructionism, this could have been wrapped up and done on Thursday of last week.

I stand in agreement with your prayer Tonkin!

Prayer warriors, FYI
Terry needs our prayer...I have heard she may be suffering an extremely high fever that came on immediately after the feeding tube was removed.

There was also a four hour period of time that MS forbade her family from visiting...against court order! He was alone with her for 4 hours!!

I've never "done drugs" but I'm pretty sure that watching or listening to Dems *must* be what a bad acid trip feels like....:))

heard Mel Martinez say that Jeb called Delay and told him that he (Jeb) couldn't get it done in FL. and to see what he (Delay) could get done. They have all been working behind the scenes.
