She could be pardoned, she would have rights. She would be tried by a jury, not a judge. She would not be starved to death because it's cruel and unusual.

I read somewhere that he didn't like the stance the Pastor took on his "professional" opinions, cancelled a subscription to a Baptist pub. If he did leave that doesn't seem like the direction he ought to be headed. I keep thinking about when St. Paul wrote about abandoning someone to the Devil in the hopes they would recover. He also said he'd give his life (or something to the effect) if that would help them, i.e., save their soul.

sign, pointedly directed at Mr. Schiavo, "Divorce is an option, murder is not," He obviously takes "'til death do us part" very seriously.
So seriously, in fact, that for him death (of his spouse) is the only option.

i think the church asked greer to leave by the sounds of what LLB stated. Church discipline. The chUrch is not supposed to let a little greer yeast infect the whole loaf of bread.
Boot his death loving a$$!!
Hate evil....cling to what is good.

"He's blind as a bat spritually."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He's blind as a bat physically as well.
He's legally blind, cannot read evidence put before him, has to have clerks read it for him. Cannot even drive a car.
He has made a number of errors in assigning bail in his courtroom, according to someone who works in his courthouse, who was on one of the radio talk shows last week.

I hope that someone erects a statue of Terri right in front of Nazi Greer's home and the courthouse. A statue on private property that can't be removed. I wonder what Greer and family ate and drank today? I bet he eats a big Easter meal.

I've heard that too that he is legally blind. If he makes errors and cannot see evidence, can that affect his ability to do his job and what it requires? Not to pick on his handicap, heck, we are arguing about handicap rights with Terri and so on, but if he cannot do his job to the requirements at hand, then he should step down or be forced to retire. I'm sure there are blind lawyers and judges that do their jobs very well but can Judge Greer do the job, disability or no?
Myself, I'm very nearsighted but easily corrected with glasses, but I'll never be an Air Force pilot either because I don't have 20/20 vision so there are jobs that I cannot do either.

What will kids think? I'm sure someone somewhere is working on how to convince kids that dying by dehydration is a sublime experience. Aaron Brown asked a guest tonight, "Is Terri in pain?" The answer was no, no, no, Terri lacks the cognitive facilities for pain at this point.
I must be having a nightmare. Soon I will wake up and realize it was just a bad dream.

Anyone with half a heart feels the impact! This judge is truly evil. Or truly merciful depending on which side of the issue one stands.

We humans don't live to be a thousand years, so what's the big deal about letting Terri Schiavo live and be cared for by her family for a few more years? It's Terri's existence, her life itself and not its quality, that her family wants to cherish. We don't have the privelege of a long life-span in this universe compared to a redwood tree (thousands of years) or a star (millions of years)...we should be grateful for every minute of our lives. Live life to the fullest. Why terminate it, for God's sake, we only live once.

One of the nurses stated in her affidavit she saw an empty insulin container in the trash can.

Okay, suppose people forced into the hospice. Then what?
She may get a drop or two of water and then what?
Suppose Jeb forced his way in there. Then what?
What would happen is that she would be put through this all over again, because every court is going to find for Michael Schiavo. Custody would be given right back to him.
Terri is probably past the point of pain now. To put her through this again seems beyond cruel.
You guys need to face the facts. Jeb can't save Terri as much as he wants to.

Was this the same nmurse who claimed she fed Terri milkshakes...and the same nurse who claimed that all her coworkers were killing patients...is this the same nurse who was deemed a total nutcase by the courts?

If you have documents proving that, surely you could enlighten us all with them?

You can feel free to google it yourself. Carla Iyers submitted affidavit that was dismissed by the courts because it would have necessitated a grand conspiracy involving every doctor and healthcare worker at the hospice. I suspect Carla is planning on an early retirement and a hefty book deal for being the only person alive on earth to see Terri eat food, move purposefully and speak multiple words at a time.
She's a loon.
