TAMPA, Fla. — In what may prove to be Terri Schiavo's parents' "final shot," their attorney was trying to persuade a judge Friday that the severely brain-damaged woman had expressed her will to live.

According to an emergency motion filed late Friday afternoon, attorney Barbara Weller said that during a hospice visit on March 18, she asked Schiavo pointedly what her wishes were. Weller directed Schiavo to say the words, "I want to live."

Felos's response in the meeting was that Terri made sounds, not words. Yet in the press interview he gave immediately after the tube removal last week, he said there was nothin: it was "peaceful". Why did he avoid an answer?

Words are sounds.

That's all I hear when Felo's starts wiggling his forked tounge. Somebody else might say he made words. Maybe he should starve too.

Fri, 3/25/05: it's over.

They're intent upon killing Terri, and are beating us. They're winning. They own the judicial infrastructure, built over the past 4-5 decades. We don't have a chance. We're out-manned and out-gunned, this time.

Liberal-progressive-socialist-commie-nazi-subhuman-garbage-filth, are our masters. They own the MSM, local gov't, state gov't, all the courts, and ultimately: US.

Are you worried/scared/locking&loading, yet?

I am.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

These guys are crazy. The same Dr Cranford who diagnosed her PVS also calls a spoon an artificial support.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Well, I feel strongly that these guys are activists and have agendas and are attempting to set a precedent.

This doesn't fare well for terminal patients on medicaid/medicare.

Can I throw in an off-the wall thought? Section 105 of Title 3 of the United States Code provides for the following: http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode03/usc_sec_03_00000105----000-.html 1) Subject to the provisons [1] of paragraph (2) of this subsection, the President is authorized to appoint and fix the pay of employees in the White House Office without regard to any other provision of law regulating the employment or compensation of persons in the Government service. Employees so appointed shall perform such official duties as the President may prescribe. (2) The President may, under paragraph (1) of this subsection, appoint and fix the pay of not more than— (A) 25 employees at rates not to exceed the rate of basic pay then currently paid for level II of the Executive Schedule of section 5313 of title 5; and in addition President Bush could appoint her to the White House senior staff, assign her no duties and no pay, etc. But then the law which governs assault on and murder of Presidential staff would take effect, Federalizing the case.

It's not over. Even if we can't save Terri, we won't forget what this was about. They have awakened a sleeping giant and we are pissed!

Because in Felos's world, a naked, furry legged granola head dancing on a street corner bathed in faux mink blood falls under the definition of "protected speech" but the gasps, moans and protestations of a starving woman are not to be misconstrued as any type of meaningful communication.

Dr Cranford is a modern day Mengale. Right on TV he said people in a PVS have no rights. So I guess he believes you can kill them. He's a ghoul, a disgusting human.

[jcb8199]

We still have hope--the only way they've been able to kill us legally is when we are defenseless--i.e. Terri, the unborn, the elderly...

They are misunderestimating us, however, if they think we are just going to lie down and let them do this to our fellow humans....

[tomahawk]

The fact the Judge Greer is relying upon a modern-day Dr. Mengele tells us all we need to know.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Cranford believes alzheimers patients should be starved to death.

[bert]

Perhaps she intended to say "to die" but lacked the where withall.

[tomahawk]

That is Hitlerian/Mengelian.

[Libertina]

Well, it would be a "painless, euphoric" experience ;)

Incorrect....


Those lackeys in the blue suits will come for you, me, 7.62 x 51, or anybody else the imperial judiciary decides to put down. And they'll tell you "sorry, just doing our job", just like the Nazis did.

Better idea than going before Greer's court.
