And this thread certainly has it's share of them. ;)
I agree with you!
And the other threads are even worse. Only one has shown up this afternoon - they must be waiting for their orders on what to recite next.
I saw your post. I posted my call to Sensenbrenner a little earlier in:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1352657/posts?page=4262#4262
As I posted, they also told me that it was scheduled for Wednesday. I asked them if they could "expedite" it like the Senate did. They couldn't tell me and never used the work "expedited". I did not consider Wednesday expedited, not did they indicate that Wednesday was an expedited session. I wonder if they used the word "expedite" after I called. They sure weren't calling it an expedited bill when I called. It looks like a regularly scheduled bill is now being called expedited.
If you look at the schedule there isn't anything posted for Friday, Monday, or Tuesday. According to the other members of the committee, it was up to the leadership what bills were scheduled. I really think Rep. Sensenbrenner could get a vote quicker if he wanted to.
The senate has the same bill introduced by Martinez and they are acting on it today.
Wednesday gives very little wiggle room.
He totally made the connection immediatly and chatted with me about that. How food and water are just basic and how he can't understand how a person could be starved to death if they haven't said that is what they would want, in WRITING.
Oh Lord! I love it! That was very clever! LOL!!!
Or looking to see what we're doing.
5,000+ posts - OMGosh!
I just read about the insurance company a couple of nights ago, but I read so much about so many things, that I don't know where I saw it.
Unfortunately, I don't have the energy to look for it.
Come On DCF, do something now!
I think the connection of "Life Support- It's what's for dinner" is a great attention getter and I'll continue to use it, when I can work it in.
However I jsut got off the phone with Senators Feingold and Kohl of Wisconsin and I literally stopped their aids cold when I said, "Florida is the Roe v Wade of Forced Euthanasia"
I jsut strongly encourage everyone to use this in their subject lines and in thier letters and e-mails.
I cna't emphasize enough how that short statement stopped the listener cold. I could literally hear them take an intake of breath. I mean it STOPPED them cold. They really understood the seriousness of the issue when I used that phrase.
I stronly encourage everyone to use "Florida is the Roe v wade of Forced Euthanasia"
It changes the topic completely from "right to die" to Euthanasia, which is what it is.
Also they always are impressed that I am calling from France. I feel certain when I am talking with them that they really are writing it down and that my Senators are actually going to see the words "Florida is the Roe v Wade of Forced Euthanasia" They have promised me that they would give my message to the Senator. I think these messages are going to be seen.
BTW it is Senate Bill 539
Neither Kohl or Feingold would go on the record, what their position is. They both claimes it was jsut introduced last night so they need a chance to evaluate it.
The "trolls" have to wait for "orders" from "headquarters" all right. Most of them know virtually nothing about the intricacies of this horror. One of their lines of attack has been: do you want to pay for health care for the terminally ill? I replied, "We already are: it's called Medicare, and it was signed by LBJ in 1965."
Praying for their courage and guidance and confusion on the part of the enemy.
How long have the righteous waited in vain for a government agency to do what is right, only to find that the agency is and remains AWOL?
There are just a few hours more than seven days left, and the clock is not slowing down. I am most pessimistic.
That's what the enemy of God wants. Discourage His people and they'll stop praying and fighting.
I'll see what I can find - I may have the info somewhere else.
But that's the beauty of this. We're just doing what we usually do. We have nothing to hide.
God is going to act. And they don't know what *He's* going to do. We don't know what He's going to do, either. But even if we did, and had His plans posted from one end of the internet to the other, there's nothing they could do about it.
I think it's worth their sweating about it. God is in control, and I believe He will soon manifest His power. To Him be the Glory, now and forever.
What will be their next move, will they obey Greer, or appeal the decision or will they go ahead with the investigation?
Knock it off! (I mean that in a good way.) Pessimism will have an actual effect on the outcome in this situation. Focus your energies on praying the DCF takes Terri into protective custody. That is a real possibility and would be great if it happened. Keep your chin up; Terri needs us to be hopeful and resolute.
Amen and Amen!
Dear FRiend, see my post #4456.
God is never late. :o)
