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.

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR CONTACT INFO, IT IS ON THE WAY. Thanks, floriduh voter
Well, when Greer's ads can include apparent endorsements from other judges and his opponents can't because it would be criminal for another judge to give such an endorsement, or for a candidate to imply receipt of an endorsement when none exists, that would tend to give Greer an advantage.
BTTT
Just thought that article was very clear and filled with data some of us have been curious about.
BTW, a regular FReeper to this thread and other Terri threads is getting ready to drive to Florida from MAINE.
Would or do any of you have contact information for the stuff going on in FL this week in support of Terri. I think Phenn posted a post regarding places to stay...but it sure would be nice for a real life phone number, etc.
Please FReepmail me....FV has said on the beginning of this thread that going to FLorida was one of the top things to do to support Terri...it doesn't get much more intense than DRIVING from MAINE! THanks all
WOuld be nice to know name of hotel or motel other FREepers are staying in...etc

I have heard that before, but never was convinced of it. In the Curzan case, the lower court and appellate court said to pull her tube based on clear and convincing. The MSC and USSC saw it otherwise at the time. Clear and convincing has precedent all the way to the top. The Florida State Consitition is not silent on this matter either.
Right, but all that happened in the Cruzan case was that the case was sent back to the same trial court judge, who was instructed that he needed to determine that evidence was clear and convincing. I don't recall the exact timeline in Terri's case, but I believe her parents did appeal on that basis, and the appellate court handed the case back to Judge Greer, who then decided that clearn and compelling evidence existed.
One fundamental problem with the appeals system is that it's predicated upon the assumption that judges are honest and reasonable. In a way, this makes sense, since an open acknowledgement that judges were not sometimes dishonest or unreasonable would open up a huge can of worms. On the other hand, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
What they're about, IMO, is a well-devised, clever and stealthy marketing campaign, with subversive and deceitful goals.
They've never been forced to answer to the horror of Lisa McPherson's death/murder .. NEVER!!! How can the Florida authorities just accept that three principals have "left the country," without making a concerted effort to find them and extradite them back for prosecution??? Sunday Prayer for Terri Bump!!!
TX also has some liberal "Republican" judges of that stripe. But in FL, the judges are elected on nonpartisan ballot. So many in Pinellas Co. would not have known that Greer is "Republican" unless they recalled his service in the 1980s as a county commissioner. In TX all judges except municipal judges are elected on partisan ballots. You're right about voters being uninformed.
I remember so well in August 2003 that George W. Greer issued a stinging personal attack on Jeb Bush. For that reason, I mistakenly concluded that Greer must be a "Chiles Democrat." For some reason, Bush does not appear to be willing to do much this time for Terri: he says he has no constitutional authority to act.
This surprises me. I had been led to believe that the FL disabled want to "control" their own bodies, but maybe they don't want George W. Greer making the decisions for them. I would like to see an exodus of senior citizens from FL: that would surely get the officials' attention.
Welcome to Free Republic!
Is the freeper going to Pinellas Park? I'm considering going myself if our ELECTED officials don't get something in place to stop this murder. I'll probably be there late Wednesday afternoon, so let us know where their staying,okay?
I had oral surgery last week. I go back Wednesday morning hopefully to get the stitches out...if all is fine at the dentists, I'll hit the road afterwards.
I Am, I Am....
Mel, We have a Broken Arrow situation here.
I know I am going, and won't be alone
When are you going Orlando?
Gosh, how I want to go!
I was rear-ended and in a lot of pain and see a therapist or doc or dentist every single day.
I just sent you an email regarding the Freeper who wants to come down. Sorry I didn't get back sooner, but I was at the rally...which was amazing. All night prayer vigil starting in forty-five minutes, so if I'm not on, that's why.
