The family can appeal now, though, can't they?

CNN is also reporting this. They'll be in the 11th circuit court of appeals within hours.

He's also going to decide if Congress overstepped their boundaries.

I hear a lot of arguments, from liberals and so called freepers, that our culture (democracy) demands that the separation of powers be respected here, above Terri's life. "We're opening a can of worms," they say, "a slippery slope. The law is above all, it was written by very wise men."

There was once another culture that had the same battle. But someone came along who seemed to put individual persons above the laws of that culture. Many people say today that the law cannot be 'bent' for one person. This other culture said the same thing. But the person in this other culture did put others above the 'law.' In fact in doing so this person incurred the wrath of the judiciary of that culture. They viewed the law as being above all else. But the person who angered them so said the law was made FOR man, not man for the law. So he broke the rules, went against the culture. He broke a holy tenant of the culture. And the wrath he incurred led to the culture condemning him to death. And the sentence was carried out.

What was the great violation of his culture. He healed a man on the Sabbath.

But the law they said was from God Himself. So when we look at the laws of God, and the laws of democracy we can ask ourselves what this man asked his culture: "Which is lawful: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But those who condemned him remained silent. (From Mark 3:4).

So today we can choose to be like the Pharisees and Sanhedrin, putting the law above man, or we choose to be, well like God would have us be, to do good and save life, not destroy it.

I would expect no different from a Clinton appointee.

But, but, but...today, March 22, is World Water Day! Thus proclaimed by the U.N.!

This is an abomination, what is happening to Terri. It's not my call, but I do hope God will not suffer these fools to treat a living, breathing human being with such disdain. May the Lord provide her with His sustenance, may she be nourished with the Living Water.

Can they appeal to the 11th when this judge is taking his time deciding this case? He may not rule for however long the way I understand it.

If those three state pols can be persuaded to change their minds, a state law can be passed, can't it? If those polls refuse to change their vote, they better pray that Schiavo has been telling the truth.

How can it go to the 11th circuit in a matter of hours? Is this is final decision or an interim one while he "ponders" his decision?

The Georgetown professor on FOX is saying there probably is an appeal going on right now.

That is the bottom line here!

And the "noted expert" on Fox keeps using the made up word "ji-normus" whatever the hell that means.
