Yes ... but they're very rare
I am sick about all of this. What is the use of voting for republicans if they do not govern as such. This and take a look at the TX legislature a den of li=ars and thieves.
So is Levin's followup book to be "Murderers in Black"? Just ****
("just damn" doesn't do it justice)
"Just what I thought would happen."
Same here. It shouldn't be a surprise.
It was just false hope o behalf of the Shindlers.
You know, maybe the good Lord wants Terri in heaven. Ultimately it is His will that will prevail.
Thanks. Your post was perfectly clear to me BTW.

ATLANTA (AP) — With time running out for Terri Schiavo, a federal appeals court Wednesday rejected her parent’s latest attempt to get the brain-damaged woman’s feeding tube reconnected.
More than 15 hours after agreeing to consider an emergency bid by Bob and Mary Schindler for a new hearing in their case, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals handed down its ruling.
“Any further action by our court or the district court would be improper,” Judge Stanley F. Birch Jr. wrote in a concurring opinion.
“While the members of her family and the members of Congress have acted in a way that is both fervent and sincere, the time has come for dispassionate discharge of duty,” Birch wrote.
To be granted, the Schindlers’ request would have needed the support of seven of the court’s 12 judges. The court did not disclose the vote breakdown, but the order did say Judge William Pryor did not vote because he is recovering from surgery.
Three times last week, the court also ruled against the Schindlers.
In requesting the new hearing and a court order for their daughter’s feeding tube to be reconnected, the Schindlers argued that a federal judge in Tampa should have considered the entire state court record and not whether previous Florida court rulings met legal muster under state law. The Schindlers’ motion also said the Atlanta-based federal appellate court didn’t consider whether there was enough “clear and convincing” evidence that Terri Schiavo would have chosen to die in her current condition.
Jeb, it's not too late to take action. Please!
Thankyou AdminModerator, you have saved me from many many flames. Typing is not my strong suit. This is sad news, the fallout will be big.
So much for the right to life.

Jess just arrived back at hospice
Big surprise. Agreeing to hear an appeal they knew they would reject is pure cruelty.
Terri would have been dead two years ago if it weren't for JEB's help, not to mention what he's done this time. Step back and take another look at it.
Bump Dio!
And getting rarer by the day.
And Jesse Jackson is back in Pinellas Park.
I guess all those Reagan and G.H.W.Bush appointees aren't worth the hot air and rhetoric Republicans have offered over the years.
The news media is running after him at this moment on the site of the murder hospice.
No it's over in the Senate. They will let her die.
