Terri's Freepers,
Judge George Greer denied Terri's parents' Motion for a Stay to protect their daughter's life while there are still pending issues in this LIFE AND DEATH MATTER. In addition the Department of Children and Family Services made a surprise visit to the court hearing the other day and asked Judge Greer if they could approach the bench. Judge Greer denied DCF the opportunity to speak. DCF asked for 60 days to conduct a complete investigation of allegations that have surfaced in the form of a Complaint to their agency.
What was set in motion instead? On Friday, February 25th, Judge Greer REFUSED TO issue another Stay because he was "not comfortable" issuing a say to protect a Ward of the State but instead "set a date certain" (on his calendar at least, not on mine) to BEGIN THE BARBARIC, ANTI-AMERICAN, STARVATION-DEHYDRATION SLOW MURDER OF TERRI.
Attorney Gibbs for Terri's parents held a press conference after J. Greer's order that was so tastefully written to indicate that "he was giving the Schindlers until March 18th so they could "prepare for Last Rites." Attorneys Gibbs called this ruling and prior rulings "Hitler-resque". Indeed.
If Judge Greer wasn't LEGALIZING EUTHANASIA in his courtroom, why any need for Last Rites? Greer's urgency to fulfill this killing places urgency on every one of us to lobby Governor Bush, Florida's House and Florida's Senate.
A Judge in America is ordering the manner of someone's death, a disabled woman who is healthy but needs rehabilitation.
Time is short so we don't really have time to get into Greer's mind to see why he is Florida's Til of the Hun.
What can we do?
1. LOBBY TO SAVE TERRI
2. HELP BUMP THIS THREAD.
3. POST ARTICLES YOU SEE ABOUT TERRI.
4. VISIT PINELLAS COUNTY FLORIDA AND VIGIL WITH US AT HOSPICE WOODSIDE.
5. VISIT TALLAHASSEE AND LOBBY IN THE HALLS OF THE LEGISLATURE.
6. HOLD A DEMONSTRATION AT THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION.
7. Join the Message Board that freepers started at the Crystal Cathedral/Hour of Power. TELL YOUR CHURCH ABOUT TERRI.
8. Tell your friends that Terri is alert and aware of her surroundings and to visit www.terrisfight.org to see her videos.
9. PETITIONS. We will gather current Petitions here for you. At this time, you can sign a SAVE TERRI PETITION AT www.renewamerica.us. THERE ARE ALSO IMPEACH GREER PETITIONS ABOUT.
Finally, the Pope has no Living Will. He will be SAFE as long as he stays away from George Greer's courtroom. The Pope is in our thoughts and prayers and he knows of Terri. He wants Terri to be freed from oppression and from a painless death by starvation-dehyration.
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO EVERY DAY, THE PAY ISN'T VERY GOOD BUT THE FRINGE BENEFITS ARE THE GREATEST. You are Great Americans and liberty is Terri's and freedom from oppression. Freepers, that is the big payoff if we continue our daunting task.
Terri's family is grateful to you and all of your prayers are being heard by the Giver of Life.
This is Terri's Fight and the battle is enjoined. JOIN US TO SAVE TERRI FROM FORCES THAT HAVE BUT ONE GOAL THAT IS AGAINST EVERYTHING AMERICAN.

EXACTLY!
AND SOROS IS BEHIND IT!!!
I lost my link and walking OUT THE DOOR! bUt do a google on SOROS-- HIS OWN WORDS!!
"We should consider laws that permit next of kin to decide to forego life sustaining medical interventions even when a patients wishes are not known."
"The doctors and nurses are working to prolong life, instead of preparing a patient for death ."
"We weren't forced by lack of financial resources to put her into a hospital where medical intervention may well have kept her much longer in a state of limbo between living and dying. Just by giving her food, the process could have been unnecessarily prolonged."
And more interesting reading.......
Soros provided $15 million in initial funding for Project Death in America (PDIA), whose headquarters are located at Columbia University's College of Physicians & Surgeons.
Terri Schiavo's Parents Discuss Rejection of Million Dollar
by Steven Ertelt
LifeNews.com Editor
March 11, 2005
Clearwater, FL (LifeNews.com) -- Terri Schiavo's estranged husband has rejected a California businessman's offer of $1 million dollars if he will turn over guardianship of Terri to her parents. Bob and Mary Schindler said the rejection shows Michael is not concerned about Terri's best interests.
"After he has denied Terri therapy for so many years and denied our family any opportunity to help her, we can only come to the conclusion that he is not comfortable with the prospects of her regaining her abilities to speak and communicate to us the reasons for her condition," the Schindlers said.
The Schindlers said "it seems clear" that Michael "has neither the inclination to discuss the matter with our family as we have proposed previously."
The Schindlers also said the rejection bears on the desire of George Felos, the euthanasia advocate who is Michael's lead attorney, to have his name associated with a case gaining international attention.
"We are not at all surprised that Mr. Schiavo's lawyer, George Felos, will not allow him to entertain such an offer," the Schindlers said in a statement. "It seems to us that the case law has become far more important to Mr. Felos than making any attempt to mediate the matter outside of the courts."
The Schindlers were heartened by the proposal made by Robert Herring, a wealthy electronics executive.
Herring said his offer still stood until Monday in case Michael changes his mind over the weekend.
"Clearly, Terri's situation has touched the hearts of many people," they said. "Mr. Herring's generous offer is surely one of the most incredible we've seen, but it is also illustrative of how good people cannot sit idle when a grave injustice such as this is taking place."
Felos told the media Friday that the offer was "offensive."
He indicated Michael has rejected previous offers -- including one for as much as $10 million. Felos said Michael would not take the money because he promised Terri that he would not keep her alive artificially.
"Michael has said over and over again that this case is not about money for him," Felos said. "It's about carrying out his wife's wishes. There is no amount of money anyone can offer that will cause him to turn his back on his wife."
However, Michael has come under fire from Terri's family and others who say he has broken his marriage vows. Michael has lived for years with another woman, Jodi Centonze, and already has had two children with her.

This whole situation has made me rethink the Physician's Directive" my attorney recommended I sign a few years ago. I just now reread it, and then I tore it up. I told my husband that he is to make the medical decisions (he has Medical Power of Attorney for me) based on this: If anyone wants me to be kept alive, then don't "pull the plug." By that I meant family members, of course. He said, "so if someone offers me a million dollars to keep you alive, I should accept the money and call a gurney to take you over to his house so he can keep you?" Ha ha ha... he's a real joker. He laughed and said ok. He's a wonderful,sensitive man (we've been together for 20 years), but his sense of humor is a little whacky.
More from Rick Roberts:
"I'm sitting here in my own brain trying to wrap myself around this, I don't understand how a judge can do this. If this isn't playing God, I don't know what is.
"As long as any hope is out there, don't you follow that?
"This is an execution of a totally innocent person."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Moronic caller on now, saying she shouldn't be kept alive.
RR: At what point do you play God and say pull the plug?
Caller saying it's too much of a stressful situation for her husband and his money...(just reporting what he said.)
RR: This is not a pet that's costing a lot money to pay for, you can't just give people a shot to end it.
RR: I don't know what the squabble is between the families, but at the end of the day when you see eye movement, I'm sorry, you can't play God with this.
RR: God forbid that any of us find ourselves in this position, what is our safety net? Spouse, courts, social services, none of that is working for Terri.
New caller: talking about Terri responding to her parents, she hasn't had therapy, caller talks about how govt is paying her bill, not husband.
RR: talking about Terri following the balloon with her eyes, and how husband says it's nothing but reflex. How can anyone pull the plug on her.
RR: As long as there is one bit of human spark, no one should be playing God here.
I was listening to the Schnidtt Show on 970 AM radio this afternoon with Bobby Schindler when Michael's obnoxious brother, Brian Schiavo, called in. Brian threatened to sue Bobby and the Schindlers. Brian Schiavo came across as a thug and a bully.
It DOES run in the family. I found the old clip from the Glen Beck Show of another brother, Steven Schiavo. Perhaps the new folks on this thread hadn't heard it.

Oh, and I did tell my husband that "pulling the plug" did NOT mean pulling a feeding tube.
Which is why I always ask to speak to the legislative aide who will be handling whatever Bill I am encouraging.
But I did speak to her alertness and the visit by the Schindler's attorneys this past Christmas eve, and the fact that there are no other videos or photos of her available because for all of these years Schiavo has SAID NO to photos and videos...that the Schindlers had to break the rules to take that video, so DESPARATE are they for the WORLD to know that Terri is alert.
oh man! I just started listening and must have missed you. I would've loved to hear a rant live
Brian, Michael, and Scott Schiavo all had to agree to the dehydration and starvation of both of their parents. I wonder if they divided the goodies three ways, or if Michael got the greater amount since it was his idea to kill the Schiavos off. Apparently, Mrs. Schiavo had opposed dehydrating Terri.
Being there in spirit is a wonderful thing...thanks. I am firmly convinced that there is nothing more important than prayer...nothing.
And folks...the Lord is always right on time...never a moment too soon or a moment too late, and He's got it covered.

Is it just me or is MS starting to look like h*ll?
I was breathless from getting our HUGE dog and smaller dog to settle down....was afraid their barking would come over the radio! LOL
I so wanted to refer people to theempirejournal.com and freerepublic.com for up to date history and documentation on this case..but Rich let me go.....whaaaaaaagh!
On Larry King, Michael said something to the effect that dehydrating their parents felt good.
He's just Dorian Grey in reverse...somewhere in an attic sits a very attractive portrait.
Yes, he looks bad...good.
What was wrong with the parents that he felt he had to kill them both?
OH HORRORS!!!! HINO LOOKS LIKE BELA LUGOSI--
I would say that MRS looks older than his 41 years, but he is a big bully who intimidates many. That so many in FL admire him will be the permanent mystery of this scandal.
