I agree and that is what I have done.

We does belong. This situation is not the first event we hollered about. They couldn't have gotten this far w/o their previous neglect of our laws. I hate to admit I could have done more. I did was I was suppose to do - I voted (corrrectly), I got others to vote (correctly) - prayed more fervantly than ever before and what else could I do. But eventually we get off our knees and put faith into action.

You don't have to feel responsible - I do. I feel I am part of the "WE the people". I feel we can't leave responsibility on one person's shoulders. If that person could have done something or couldn't - it shouldn't matter at this point. It's what we can do.

Ask/fax George W to be our voice on TV. We the people tell him we feel that the constitutional rights of a woman has been denied in the most horrifc way via heresay via lack of due process and that we feel the overthrow of our constitution is happening before our eyes and we want intervention NOW?? Maybe we should pray and ponder some more about doing that?

Actually I don't know if it's true or not.I suppose a few could have accidently voted for Rangel or some other dummy.

"The federal judge here in Tampa who was first to hear the case is a Clinton appointee. He is the one who chose to simply ignore the law that Congress had passed and treat the case like any other appeal, not like the new case that Congress had intended. And of course, he's perfectly within his rights to do so since Congress, probably in an attempt to be 'gentlemanly' used the word 'may' instead of the word shall and he conveniently decided that may also gave him the choice of 'may no' and that was his path. Legally according to the letter of the law. All nice and neat."

Unfortunately it's all too nice and neat, as you say. It's difficult for me to wrap my mind around how all this could happen.

I think we will do that and all the shouting now is mostly temporary.

Watch what you wish for.

Conservatives going back to sleep is a nightmare scenario for the future of this republic.

But many of don't forget, and we do what we say we're going to do.

I swear I hear chants of "die Terri" coming from some posts. Conservatives cheering for death...go figure

I've never seen anything that remotely struck me that way. I think you're imagining things. No conservative is "cheering for death".

It is wrong to expect the Bushes to break the law. I ended up on the parents' side and also supported the de novo review. It didn't happen.

Didn't the law specifically call for a de novo review? If it didn't happen, then the law has already been broken.

In which case, they would not be breaking the law. They'd be enforcing it.

Ah, I knew it wouldn't be long before that deep dark condescending pettiness lept out of your tiny little heart.

I'm not worried about you leaving the party; you haven't been right about a candidate yet.

FYI...There is already a serious impeachment effort for Greer underway in the Florida legislature.

You're right.

And I am having to repent today for my five years of support of the Bushes...

"There is already a serious impeachment effort for Greer underway in the Florida legislature."

I hope it succeeds, then they should investigate Greer for corruption and conflict of interest charges, then charge him of being accessory to murder, which he is.

I'm not talking about sleeping - I'm talking about continuing the fight for this country. Even if you think the Bushes didn't do enough - they did something. Something that was politically dangerous for them, as evidenced by no one being happy with them - not their conservative base, nor the moderates, nor as to be expected, the liberal media. They are getting crapped on from all corners for trying to help in a thorny matter. I suggest directing your disdain elsewhere.

So far we have two votes he is halucinating and one vote he is not. 50% say he is halucinating.

Either way, Terri Schiavo and her family are the ones that will pay the price for this "crap" that is taking place in the Florida court system--

I paint the federal court system with the same brush. So will careful students of the law after this shakes out.

I saw someone - not a newbie or a troll - call for "a life for a life" yesterday. The post literally suggested taking a life on the other side for "Terri's life".

It was rightly pulled (FreeRepublic does NOT advocate these things), and two or three people posted in response - but I think it's naive to believe there isn't an undercurrent in some people's thinking, if not outright expression of violent thoughts.

Chad is right.
