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.

Souder is doing a fabulous job!

States rights should prevail over handicapped being killed? Oh man he's ripping Michael to shreds!

By the way, I love that the Dems call this a "right-to-die" case. What about the right to live? No one knows what Terri actually would have wanted so how can we be sure that she wishes to activate her "right-to-die". The Democrats have no desire to protect life in any of its forms, unless it comes in the form of an Alaskan caribou or a serial killer.

He's more than nuts. He and his politics are totally despicable and beyond the pale - thank God I don't live in his district, but my poor Stepfather does and can't stand him - - he votes against him every election and the POS keeps getting voted in (last election by over 70%), his district is a mix of inner city and very nice homes. Of course, after the last s-election in WA state, and him being in King County, where most of the fraud occurred, I believe he didn't win by anywhere near that amount (another subject for another thread - - we need to concentrate on and pray for Terri tonight).

Souder is making a Excellent points.

Democrats argue absurdity feelings and souder makes points via logic.

This really makes the democrat party look like the true inheritors of the Nazi philosophy.

I can't really watch it much more. I have been watching for almost an hour. It's fascinating yet horrible. Like a train crashing into a nitroglycerine factory.

Yes, you're right.

And Felos lobbyed for the change in the Florida law that included ordinary food and hydration under the category "extraordinary medical treatment".

Why was Christopher Reeves kept alive when he was too paralyzed to feed himself?

Great Point!

Superman had a super spouse (Dana) unlike Terry's spouse whom wants her dead.


Christopher Reeve and wife Dana

When his horse balked at a rail jump in 1995, Reeve was thrown off and landed head first, fracturing the vertebrae in his spine. He was paralyzed from the neck down and unable to breathe without a respirator.

"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."

Amen to that.

There are Freepers that agree with the Dems, amazingly enough.

What a proud moment it must be to find oneself joined on the death squad by the likes of McDermott and Franks and Wyden and Kennedy.

Nadler comparing death by starvation/dehydration with a DNR. That's quite a stretch.

It's more than a stretch! It's utterly ridiculous! A feeding tube is simply a pathway for sustenance - something we ALL require whether we are sick or we are healthy. All living beings require nutrition of some sort otherwise they will die. A feeding tube has nothing to do with a DNR! A feeding tube is not artificial life support and is not considered heroic measures.

A DNR stands for "Do Not Resescutate". Before a DNR may be implemented a person MUST have either stopped breathing or their heart MUST have stopped beating. A DNR order prevents heroic acts be taken to bring a person BAACK from this state. A DNR does NOT mean "do not treat". Any person who has a DNR in place MUST be treated by medical proffesionals up until the time that their heart STOPS or their respiration STOPS.

Nadler is an idiot!

Where did you get that information? Time to put up or shut up. Cite a source or go away.
