lol.

All this has made me want to get off FR forever. I mean...some of the posts comparing her to Jesus is just ridiculous. I mean...I feel bad for the woman, but come on! We are in a war and this whole site has only Terri posts.

All the people who are tired of Terri need not worry she'll be gone forever real soon.

Somebody had to say it... LoL...
The second coming of Jesus would probably only 100 threads..
maybe less..

I've said enough.

Let others decide when they have.

I haven't commented too much since Friday before last on these Terri threads. I mainly sit and read them.

I see such bitter and hostile remarks aimed at one another here that it is hard to tell the DU site from the FR site. Personally, I think the DU'ers get along better with each other.

My heart aches for what is happening to Terri, but it is also aching for the animosity that I see directed at fellow FReepers.

I miss the pre-election friendliness displayed by all. I say this with the most sincerest respect.

it's a stand-up-and-declare-whose-side-you're-on moment in American history.

Matthew 10:34:

Think not that I came to send peace on the earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35 For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law: 36 and a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

If Bush is ignoring the judicial crisis and not standing up to it, there is no judicial crisis. If the states are trying to push immoral laws on us, that's okay because we must support states rights issues...the koolaid makes us do this. Sheeple.

My concern isn't about koolaid or sheeple. It's about posting threads that are based on heresay, inuendo, and laced with over-the-top insults. I think there is a way to express concerns about Terri Schiavo and the issues around what's happening to her in a civilized manner. Instead, people on the political left have accused FR of being a hotbed of "rightwing freaks", and I'm sorry to say that the Terri Schiavo threads are proving them right.

It is a watershed event. It is the ultimate loss of our right to life.

Bingo! I agree 100%.
