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 dont want to be known as the party that killed Terri.
This is American history happening before your eyes.
Oh, my bad! I looked away for a few minutes and didn't see the last 2 added. Last time I saw it there were three. Well, then there are 5 R's that need replacing with people who respect life in people rather than for trees or dolphins or stupid carabou!
Felos' absolutism is the reason a compromise could never have been achieved.
Technically, you're right.
Yes, the federal side opens many baskets. But, first is to get it OUT of the murderer's court - he is so power-mad/power/revenge-crazed by the family that Greer is unable todecide anything right now.
But, consider that every death sentence case DOES end up in review at the Supreme Court.
The feeding tube must be reinserted at a hospital.
The track going to her stomach may have closed up.
Terri will be transported to a hospital tonight.
Yeah. I drove back from Oklahoma today and exhausted but I can't sleep. I keep praying.
I wonder since Terri is from Pennsylvania if this will cause him series problems for re-election. [I guess if I must mispell, I must mispell series the Freeper way.]
It has already been stated that we have judges standing by in central Florida -- think you can take it to the bank that this President knows exactly which judges are getting this and they are not going to back Greer!
I'm with you. Prayers every few minutes.
You're wrong, but the beauty part is you're going to be proven wrong within a couple hours.
So the only question is, will you hang around to admit you're wrong, or will you slink away?
I won't be able to rest until I know she's out of the hospice!
Should I post mine?
You know which one I am talking about!
Are we talking about the same flag?
Listening him was the best laugh I had all day *L*
WOW.. he sure talks fast
Well, I know it passed and that 5 R's voted against it. My husband has decided to hijack the TV to watch Cops (!) so I am now out of the loop! Sorry *sigh* I'll be reading about it here with you!
Common sense tells you that if you abandon your family, your right to decide life or death issues for them is certainly eroded.
My gosh I love our President! And thank you Tom Delay, and activists for life!
Something I don't understand, is actually removing the tube the normal procedure, or a final bit of ugliness by MS? Why did the judge order that, rather than just order that she no longer be given water or nutrients through the tube, simply cap the tube? It is not like they are going to reuse it.
I am with you 100% -- we need to make sure they have conservative opponents -- President will sign the bill in the next 30 minutes!
Libertina...
Reichert voted against???
That surprises me????
With the money flowing out of the Scientologists, Greer must be speaking Swiss.
Procedure would require a review. A review would require the maintaining FOOD and WATER.
Now the is is one of time. A fedeal judge could say no, and then it is bumped to the 11th where they can then order the food.
The fox reporterette Kurts described it as a one person bill (d talking point). This is not criminal law this is civil law. There are MANY one person civil bills.
