After much hard work that has gone on for well over a year, it's been a week and 2 days since Terri has been without food and hydration.
Many asking the question how we could have become such a callous society as to deny a helpless human the basic necessity of food and water.
Terri's plight has brought to light many problems in the judicial system and opened our eyes to the fact that some laws need to be changed.
The work will continue to protect helpless individuals from suffering the same injustice as Terri.
Nat Hentoff also said in all his 50 years of reporting he has never seen anything like what's going on here.
Perhaps he's once again extending his sympathies to Michael. According to Jeb, this has very difficult for Mikey.
Look at the Thomas More Law Center.com website.
I know this isn't what you're looking for, but Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness are the very basis for the American creedo...and Terri has been denied all three. Legal murder is still murder. Ask our WWII vets who fought against just that thing. They must be horrified right now...especially this brave generation of Americans are very, very elderly now...and are in danger of dying by means of the very thing they fought against. WE are killing our elderly and our handicapped. God help us.

This is the SECRET.......remember in the scripture, the widow HOUNDING the judge?? Will JEB and GEORGE are our TOP AUTHORITIES here in the USA. If not, we are bowing now to Judge Greer!!
why dont you start one and we'll all help
Oh, i want to throw up!
Don't bet your cats with hino. You know what he does with cats.
I believe Coco Cola owns Minute Maid now.
I don't know how much evidence, if any, criminally there is against Michael Schiavo, but if there is even one bit, the Schindlers should file criminal charges against him, and that way prevent him from cremating the body; if he cremated the body, my thinking is that would then be destroying evidence.
I have heard only disgust from our vets!! Notice how that the Iraq war, and Social Security issues have taken a back seat over the past two weeks?? The WAR is right here, on our soil right now. Big TIME.
Terri's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, want to take care of the daughter they love so much. But Michael Schiavo has cruelly prohibed the family from taking care of Terri.
I tell you...I would vote for Bobby if he ever ran for anything at all.
LOL, I know! But I'm mad at them this morning and they did say 5 years ago that they didn't want to live without Meow Mix...all I have is Whiskas this morning.....
Jeb statement coming up on Fox....
Well, I'm sorry for Jeb. I'm sorry he doesn't have the fortitude to be a man and do his duty for his people.
Yes, the whole philosophy behind abortion, is selfishness. We have created a society of selfish people who are taught from kindergarten, that it is alright to kill another humanbeing, if they are some sort of trouble to you.
This is the heritage of an abortion society.
This is what comes of "personally being against abortion, but not wanting to push my beliefs on others".....it just so happens that their beliefs may be pushed on YOU!
GREAT that you also posted this. We need to keep bumping it, so I will repeat:
I just received this from RightMarch.com:
TAKE ACTION: Here are the two areas we need you to take
action in NOW:
1) Governor Jeb Bush has made several statements the last few
days, claiming that he doesn't have the constitutional or
statutory authority to take Terri in to protective custody.
But as we've mentioned before, we *personally* told his people
FACE TO FACE that he DOES have that authority: we had a
meeting on March 23 between folks from RightMarch.com (William
Greene and our attorney, Larry Klayman) and Governor Bush's
chief counsel (his top lawyer on staff). Then we had a meeting
on March 24 between our folks (this time, Larry Klayman AND
Ambassador Alan Keyes) and Gov. Bush's Chief of Staff. Both
times, we presented information on why the Governor DOES have
the authority RIGHT NOW under Florida Law and the Florida
constitution to take Terri into protective custody NOW, and
save her life.
But Gov. Bush failed to take action. Why? We believe that his
staff -- the political cronies that he has surrounded himself
with -- have NOT given him the documents we provided. They
just smirked and gave us political platitudes, acting like
they were doing US some big favor by granting us five minutes
of their valuable time. Then they walked off, apparently
tossing Dr. Keyes' well-researched documents into the trash
when they got back to their spacious corner offices.
These people are more interested in protecting their political
careers than saving Terri's life. So it's time for US to turn
up the heat on them, and DEMAND that they deliver the documents
that Gov. Bush NEEDS -- so he can save Terri Schiavo.
Ambassador Keyes and Larry Klayman are STILL willing to meet
with the Governor, or to have a conference call to explain
his authority, and his DUTY.
We need EVERYONE READING THIS MESSAGE to call Governor Bush's
lead counsel and chief of staff RIGHT AWAY, and tell them to
do one simple thing:
"SHOW GOVERNOR BUSH THE DOCUMENTS FROM ALAN KEYES AND
LARRY KLAYMAN -- TELL HIM TO EXERCISE HIS CONSTITUTIONAL
AUTHORITY, AND TAKE TERRI SCHIAVO INTO PROTECTIVE
CUSTODY RIGHT AWAY."
Call, fax or e-mail now:
Raquel Rodriguez, General Counsel
850-488-3494 (office)
850-488-9810 (fax)
raquel.rodriguez@myflorida.com
William Large, Deputy Chief of Staff
850-488-5603 (office)
850-922-4292 (fax)
william.large@myflorida.com
Also contact Gov. Bush and ask him to read the documents:
Governor Jeb Bush
850-488-4441 (office)
850-487-0801 (fax)
http://capwiz.com/sicminc/mail/?id=9483&type=GV&state=FL
(If you get busy signals, or full mailboxes, or unanswered
fax machines, please know that these ARE the correct numbers
and addresses. Just keep trying, if you can.)
You can click below to read -- AND USE -- Alan Keyes'
documentation that explains to Gov. Jeb Bush that he has the
legal authority to save Terri Schiavo... the SAME document
that we delivered to Gov. Bush's staff:
http://www.rightmarch.com/media/JudicialReview.doc
2) On Monday, we'll be sending several representatives up to
Washington, D.C., to confront House Speaker Dennis Hastert and
Congressman Tom DeLay, asking them to explain why they have
not enforced the subpoenas issued by Congress to Terri Schiavo.
Our people will also urge Congress to find Florida Probate
Judge George Greer in contempt for deliberately IGNORING Terri
Schiavo's subpoena.
Call, fax or e-mail Reps. Hastert and DeLay now, urging them
to enforce the Congressional subpoenas and to hold Judge Greer
in contempt -- and to therefore order the re-insertion of Terri
Schiavo's feeding tube... and ask President Bush to order the
Department of Justice to move in to save Terri:
Representative J. Dennis Hastert (R-IL)
202-225-2976 (office)
202-225-0697 (fax)
http://capwiz.com/sicminc/mail/?id=227&type=CO&state=IL
Representative Tom DeLay (R-TX)
202-225-5951 (office)
202-225-5241 (fax)
http://capwiz.com/sicminc/mail/?id=576&type=CO&state=TX
President George W. Bush
202-456-1414 (White House)
202-456-2461 (fax)
http://capwiz.com/sicminc/mail/?id=20004&type=PR
As long as Terri has breath in her body, IT'S NOT TOO LATE to
save her from starving to death. Her family hasn't given up
hope... so NEITHER SHOULD WE.
