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.

After hearing Watts, I now know exactly what a persistent vegetative state looks like.

Fatima, the "useless eater" rhetoric stems from the Third Reich, which also gave us another pertinent phrase:

vernichtung lebens unwertenlebens.

"fir-NISH-toong LAY-binz oon-VAIR-tin-lay-binz"

"annihilating life unworthy of life"

This was the Nazi T-4 program.

I can't believe that mel watt is making this a racial issue and saying that people are going hungry but he is going to vote against Terri Schiavo from being fed.

Dear Congressidiot Mel Watt:

Please include in your next "Report to the People" under your franking priveliges. Might look good in your newsletter. You could save us some money since your whole argument to kill Terri could be summed up in one nice poster:

Mel Watt = A Brain Dead Ignoramus


In that case, he should cut off his own food and water since he consistantly demonstrates no brain activity.

A black Democrat playing the race card and harping about "divisiveness".

And the Sun will rise in the east tomorrow.

they broke in all excited with ambulances arriving. I think kshe may get the tube back!

anymore on this yet?

I have the fear that Michael is panicked with the possibility that he may lose control of Terri and the investigation DeLay means to get about his neglect, etc., that he may become desperate enough to see that she doesn't make it - It made me afraid this morning when he wouldn't allow her family in to see her - and that he insisted on "alone" time with her. It would be simple to slip something to her that would kill her without being detected -

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!!

I think I'm gonna cry. Please dear God , let it be so.

Sensenbrenner is making super logical points.

Said how they did it timely.

Sensenbrenner has gently and thoughtfully shown how the democrat (gay) party is beyond any redemption. (sorry zell)

May God bless Mr. Sensenbrenner, and all who have spoken for Terri tonight.

The Party of Death has reached a watershed moment. It must be made to suffer political extinction. It deserves no less.

Dear Lord,

We are praying for Terri and her family.
We are praying that the politicans can
put LIFE before politics.

I know this is asking a lot, but we are
humbly praying.

Thank you Jesus.

Amen.

I believe that I heard earlier that it will be a voice vote, i.e. not a recorded vote. Give folks on both sides a lot of cover.

According to the poll I saw, most Americans favor putting Terri to death, so the Republicans seem to gain nothing from this, other than doing the right thing.

Yeah, I heard that too. However, my own anecdotal poll reveals that almost everyone I talk to who is in favor of killing Terri knows next to nothing about the case except what they heard on the MSM. Once I explain some facts (no written instructions, husband came up with the notion after 7 years, he's now living with a woman with two kids, her parents want to care for her), almost nobody supports pulling the plug.

Does the "D" after their name stand for "dumb"?

You left out a few letters...perhaps you're trying to keep it clean.

Can you believe they are now trying to make this into a racial thing? Is anyone aware of a high number of black people dying because they were starved or did not receive medical care? Next thing we know gays are dying because they are not getting the medical care they should be receiving because of all those old white hetrosexuals getting all that medical care....
