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 was just thinking the same thing - kinda trumps the Dims earlier comments about we're not doctors and we don't know, doesn't it.

Perfect, Nadler supporting starvation.

Should have had his mouth wired shut or went on the liquid Kennedy diet. This guy is a maroon!!

Pray for W and Terri

Nadler is saying all the in-laws said and testified she wanted to die.D-New York,strange she did not tell her sister and own brother.

Even if she did make such a comment at one time in the past. People often change their minds, especially when they are the ones that are ill. I had a long conversation with a friend of mine who stated that he would not want to live if he had an incurable disease. He said he would shoot himself if he ever got terminal cancer. Well you guessed it, today he has throat cancer, lung cancer, diabetes, and his prognosis is hopeless. But he is fighting for every day and every hour.

This has nothing to do with her state.... The basic question is: If you don't have a living will should someone else decide your fate? Too many things can cloud others judgment. To many emotions in taking testimony from loved ones. Living will can be the only deciding factor. If you don't have one you should. Not second hand testimony. This has nothing to do with weather Terri will improve or not. You don't determine life or death by a human beings quality of living.

His doctors should be sued for malpractice. The staple belonged on his mouth.

You haven't been listening to Representative Weldon have you?

He disputes the diagnosis of PVS. He's a physician.

Ya know.

These dems are making no sense when they say "Terri said she didn't want to live on life support."

See the thing is before 1999 FL law didn't recognize a feeding tube as "Life support"

And Felos had great timing when he filed the case.

It's explained much better here

Because he was a 'useful carrot' for the democrat death cult in their pursuit of killing embryos for their body parts. Was Christopher a carrot? Of course not. To then arbitrarily degrade a more disabled person tells us a lot about the fears of democrats and their evil 'choice' and 'serial killing of the useless' agenda.

I'm all for "states' rights" and politically, I am to the right of Dr. Walter Williams. Etc. etc. Right now, I don't give a rat's behind about any of that stuff . I just want the stinking feeding tube reinserted so that Terri Schiavo doesn't die a slow, inhumane death. That's all. I want somebody - - anybody - - in a position to get it done to.... GET IT DONE.

I cannot believe that all this hoopla is even necessary.

Regards,
LH

Musgrave is putting this in perspective.

The democrat party is coming out as the party of no to life.

It is TERRIFYING to think of present day democrats of any shape or shade making ANY important decision.

We have a helpless adult.


Nadler is CYA mode. (and big A to CY)

The reason this case has been given this review is because DEMOCRATS ARE FINALLY A FIRM MINORITY PARTY!!!!!

Of course, they use terms like "states rights", etc., but it comes down to one thing--if they win, Terri dies.

Have been shocked at the number of them and who some of them are -- has made absolutely zero sense to me.
