I agree on much of what you are saying and especially the importance for us all to vote and help reset our course. One of the things many of us have seen in this case with Judge Greer is his cheerful flouting of existing laws and the Constitution itself, as if they were only guidelines meant for lesser souls.

He would brush aside the Constitution with the same alacrity as those who would rename the Ten Commandments the Ten Suggestions. Others here are better versed in how he abused the definitions of Guardian Ad Litim, but I am eyewitness to how he violated the Constitutional rights of a friend who was thrown out of a public place in Greer's imperial court for no legal reason whatsoever. Even the cops blushed with shame as they escorted out my friend.

That is what we face constantly in this epic battle of good versus evil.

We who fight for Terri's legacy will continue to be called kooks but do not concern ourselves that much considering who is doing the name calling, namely the far left, the euthanasia/bioethicists, the clintonists, the communists, and the terrorist. As time passes, Terri's legacy splits those definitions into cleaner lines. The factor appears in the races all over this country right now.

I guess what we see is that additional to drafting new laws, we need an implementation of present laws with real teeth and a way to keep mavericks like Greer to their contract or drive them out of power.

Meanwhile I will be doing my part on Tuesday, and hope we all do the same.

In a secret ballot in which 4,779 lawyers participated statewide, the attorneys favored retaining Chief Justice R. Fred Lewis and Justices Barbara J. Pariente and Peggy A. Quince, who are on the ballot seeking to be retained for six-year terms.

Lewis, Pariente and Quince were on the bench in 2000 when the Florida Supreme Court voted 4-3 to order Katherine Harris, then secretary of state, to accept the manual recounting of ballots sought by Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore in his race against Republican George W. Bush.

Lewis, Pariente and Quince were joined by Justice Harry Lee Anstead in favoring the statewide recount , but the ruling was later reversed by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Snip...

Since the retention system was instituted in 1976, no justice has ever lost a retention vote. If a justice is voted out, a replacement would be chosen through the state's Judicial Nominating Commission.
