Believers in the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence:
Where is Terri's independence?
I'm talking about her independence to learn and to be free from her lonely room.
To kick off Terri's May-June 2004 Dailies, our first article is by Deroy Murdock of Scripps Howard News Service.
Let Terri Schiavo's Parents Restore Her Dignity. May 22, 2004

Yes, pc93 has done so much. So many have done such tremendous work and have given so much of themselves that it would be nearly impossible to thank them all personally.
I stand in utter awe of the people who have gotten involved in this cause. Never in my life have I seen such kindness for a stranger, such tenderness for a family in need and such dedication to an effort.
Terri truly has one super-sized extended family. The people who have come forward to protect her are nothing short of remarkable.

We are one. For Terri and the family that loves her. And love beats out hate, everytime!!
Anyone who would like the ability to have a Terri Life Ribbon on their computer screen towards the bottom right either on the desktop or floating can send me either a private mail or an e-mail to pc93@bellsouth.net with their e-mail so I can send it to you with instructions certainly feel free to do so. Perhaps someone can host the file somewhere with the instructions too. I am offering in that I just figured a way to do it and also because RCIL is having their gathering to celebrate Terri's Life and Right to Live today.

So much for retirement, eh, Sheriff Rice? I'll be supporting Rice's opponent but won't have time to campaign against Rice because I'M GOING TO HELP TRY TO DEFEAT GREER.
DEFEAT GREER PING LIST to join freepmail floriduh voter.
What office is this corrupt sheriff then seeking? You mentioned only a Republican primary opponent, but you did not say which office the popular Rice is seeking.
A thread about The Visitation Hearing of May 26th and also regarding Terri's visit with her family for the first time in over two months which took place this past Saturday...
Suddenly, Sheriff Rice realized that he would miss public service if he actually retired.
Will Rice have Republican primary opposition, or will he become the automatic party nominee for this seat in the state legislature? We can be sure if he is elected (and it is a Republican district) that he will oppose any future "Terri's Law." The man has no conscience. How are the crime stats in Pinellas Co.? He may have tried to "cook" the crime stat books.
Schindler family reunited with Terri...after 2-month separation -- http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1147325/posts
Right! I'm still thinking, too, about how dispassionate people, like Matt C, are in talking about Terri -- as if she is not a real woman whose life is on the line?
It has often been noted on Terri's threads how much better treated death-row criminals are -- they maintain their rights and dignity despite their crimes against their fellow humans. Terri's only crime is that she suffered a brain injury, and that renders her subhuman somehow??? As if our minds, our intellect are the only things that define our humanity? Which is also ignoring Terri's responses to jokes, music, those she loves --- as was also reported YEARS ago in her medical records.
I'm thinking of a snide comment, but will spare you all . . .
An order was signed by Judge Greer today on June 4th, 2004 in response to the May 26th Visitation Hearing. The court concluded, "the investigation has been closed since the Clearwater Police Department found no evidence of criminal activity, no indication of attempted criminal activity and no harm done to Terri Schiavo. The court concluded there appears to be no evidence to substantiate a criminal offense occurred."
Therefore, the court has restored visitation to the Schindler family.
Visit www.terrisfight.org for documentation of this order.
Have a wonderful week-end and inhale the beauty of life!

That is really, really good news!
I'm beginning to feel like I understand the emotion Paul the Disciple had when he said "I beseech you"! There is a plague of apathy thick as the earth's crust and it covers the Christian community in general with a negative spirit of defeat.
If the few of us who are informed and concerned are the only ones to blow the trumpet, so be it! God allowed the walls of Jericho to crumble down as a result of the actions of a few people. We are those and we must remember that in due seasons ye shall reap if ye faint not.
We have a long way to go. It's hard for me to imagine all the miles Paul walked. I doubt I've ever gone further than 3 miles in my life. He was so committed to his purpose that he was willing to go to extreme lengths to accomplish the goal. Yet we falter when we've hardly begun.
God is the same as he ever was. He parted the sea, raised the dead, and many more miracles we could mention and elaborate on. We must give the praise to the Lord because it is He that has sustained Terri thus far. God's miracles are as real today as they were in Biblical times. We must continue to pray and take action! Some of the Terri threads are practically dead with only a few of the old time Terri supporters. Please help spread the word about the petitions that have been posted. I've thought a couple of days regarding a lawyer's opinion about the petitions. If that person is so inclined to discount the petitions on face value I think that it may be either that *the person is really not informed as he claims to be about Greer's rulings or ** the petition has some people worried that it may actually succeed. I already formed my opinion which reason it is.
Please pass the word!

Another reason which I forgot to include for the lawyer discounting the petitions is that the judicial community is tightly knit and do no wrong in each others' eyes.
Says damaged.. anyways was thinking might be better to include in the directions the url to download the Holiday Lights thing from the actual website that provides it and then just provide the ribbon which is very minimal in size.. let me see what I can come up with and then you can host it. Freegards.
Okay. Meantime, It's now up there, with a "readme.txt" file now included (the text from the e-mail you sent). FTP seems a bit dodgy, and I'm doing this from work so probably missed the error message from last time.
I won't have access to this address over the weekend. FReepmail me if you want to e-mail an update...
Take care.
