URGE SENATORS, REPRESENTATIVES TO RESOLVE DIFFERENCES, PASS 'TERRI'S LAW' IMMEDIATELY

Both the House and Senate have now passed bills that would give the Schindlers the opportunity to have their claims that their daughter's starvation violates her federal constitutional and statutory rights heard in a federal court. Unfortunately, the bills have significant differences in content. Both houses must pass the same version in order for the bill to be signed by the President and put into effect to save Terri.

Now, your help is needed TODAY to contact your Senators and Representatives and urge them to do whatever is necessary to resolve the differences between the two chambers and get a bill that will save Terri to the President’s desk before it is too late.

PLEASE ACT NOW! Under court order, Terri's feeding tube is scheduled to be removed at 1:00 pm EST today, Friday, March 18.

To contact your senators and U.S. representative, go to:

Simply type your zip code in the "Take Action Now" box.

Time is precious! Only a massive outpouring from constituents will move legislators to act quickly enough to give Terri her chance at life.

Heavenly Father, we return to thank You that in Your hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. This mother's child is sustained this day by You, O God, and no other. Soothe her brow and ease her pain, for the one who pledged to love and cherish her has consigned this wounded woman to a horrible death, sanctioned by the very courts charged to protect her. Bring forth that one Judge, O God, who will render the justice long denied, who will proclaim loudly that "thou shalt not kill." Years of agony have been the portion of her family ... sustain them in their great hour of need. May Terri's words burn brightly in their hearts, and in ours ... "where there's life, there's hope." Pierce the hearts of men this day ... those whose job it is to protect the American people ... grant the greatest wisdom and courage that these same people can fashion words that will redeem Terri from sure and certain death. We look to You expectantly, O Lord, for You are Sovereign God. To You be all glory, honor, and praise, now and forevermore, Amen ...

Thanks for posting the bills. Delay was on Fox this morning, they are talking about getting the bill passed and signed Monday.

But I'm wondering what happens if they ignore the bill in Florida. I would never have believed they could ignore a Congressional subpoena and get away with it.

As another poster said the US Attorney works for Gonzales, why couldn't he get the attorney to follow the law. I don't know why they needed to send it to the US Supreme Court to deny it again. Do we now have to go through the US Supreme Court when someone decides to ignore the law of the land.
A subpoena is supposedly the law of the land.

Do US attorneys get to enforce only those subpoenas they like?

What you witnessed yesterday was the overthrow of the Federal Government by the church of scientology and Judge Greer, who effectively became the judicial and legislative and executive branch of the government. He told them to stuff it and they did. You will see this happen again and again in the future days, months and years.
I don't think it has yet hit any of our legislators in the house and senate, but at this point in time if a state judiciary does not like what the legislative branch passes, this precedent will surely let them know, just as it lets each of you know that regardless of anything you say or vote, you are going to be euthanized when you are no longer productive. Forget social security, they aren't going to let you spend it unless you have beaucoup in the bank producing lots of interest, paying more taxes on this interest than social security will pay you. As soon as there is not a net gain you are dead.
Foreign nations will now have to negotiate trade deals with individual states or risk that the individual states will not honor the treaties negotiated by an ineffectual federal government that exists only in our minds. The judiciary in individual states can now tell the executive and legislative branches that they are not going to pay taxes, obey laws, or send soldiers to defend our nation. Of course the legislative branch could tell the state there would be no more federal money, but that won't work either because then they would not be re-elected when the schools, transportation, medical and welfare systems shut down. So you see, you need to get out your flags and bow down to the new "President" and "Legislative" branch of the new government of the United States, George G. Greer.
You have witnessed a bloodless coup.

I also think that The Empire Journal might want to look in the direction of an organization of Democratic Aides.

As soon as there is not a net gain you are dead. This is one of the tenants of scientology.

The judiciary in individual states can now tell the executive and legislative branches that they are not going to enforce laws passed by the Legislative Branch of the old government except by state judicial discretion, to pay taxes, obey laws, or send soldiers to defend our nation are now also subject to their discretion. Of course the legislative branch could tell the state there would be no more federal money, but that won't work either because then they would not be re-elected when the schools, transportation, medical and welfare systems shut down.

So you see, you need to get out your flags (you'll have to ask George what the design will be, maybe someone can design one for him) and bow down to the new "President" and "Legislative" branch of the new government of the United States, George G. Greer.

MY LETTER TO MY CONGRESS CRITTERS TODAY -- AT THIS SITE:

http://www.capwiz.com/nrlc/dpq/dbq/officials/

LOOK CLOSELY at these pictures of Lisa McPherson, before and AFTER her brutal death, after being deprived of food and water for 17 days, while in the "protection" of the Scientologists in Clearwater, FL .

THIS IS WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT!

TERRI SCHIAVO IS BEING STARVED INTENTIONALLY IN A CASE FROUGHT WITH SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES AND BY A JUDGE WHO HAS NEVER EVEN SEEN HER IN 10 YEARS OF COURT OWNERSHIP OF THIS CASE--- NEVER!!!

Can you believe that any prudent and fair judge would purposely avoid seeing the subject of so many contradictory reports in person? Ever??

By the way, this judge is legally blind -- everything has to be read to him in the court, and he has made gross errors in judgement because he misread numbers, etc. and rendered inappropriate sentences.

Both the House and Senate have passed bills that would give Terri's parents the ability to bring before a federal court their claims that their daughter's starvation violates her federal constitutional and statutory rights.

Unfortunately, the bills have significant differences in content. I urge you to do whatever is necessary to resolve the differences between the two chambers and get a bill that will save Terri to the President's desk before it is too late.

I URGE YOU TO ERR ON THE SIDE OF LIFE -- LIFE ... LIFE!!! A convicted killer or a dog wouldn't be legally allowed to be starved to death in America.

Sen. Obama, I'm paying particular attention to your actions in this case. I'm new to this area, and have watched the attention you've received. You are being looked to as a future great leader. Show us .. shows us your regard for the sanctity of life and integrity. You can't be a good Christian, no matter what you profess, if don't follow the most sacred precepts of our Lord -- "What you have done for the least of my children, you have done for Me."

Terri is NOT in a coma, NOT hooked up to machines. SHE IS CONSCIOUS, AND WILL FEEL THIS TORTURE JUST AS YOU AND I WOULD, IF WE WERE DENIED FOOD.

In the name of all that is American and the mantle of protection to which all her citizens are entitled, I PLEAD WITH YOU TO NOT OBSTRUCT THE ACTIONS IN PROCESS IN THE SENATE AND HOUSE TO ALLOW FEDERAL PROTECTION OF HER CIVIL RIGHTS.

HELP HER -- PUT YOUR CONSCIENCE BEFORE YOUR PARTY!!!

Imagine your child or grandchild was stricken with a medical crisis that rendered them conscious but unable to communicate. Could you tell the doctors to let them starve to death without giving them every chance at therapy, etc. to help them?

This is what has happened to Terri. Her "guardian" has denied her the rehab and therapy that he promised when he sued for medical malpractice and won a substantial award for that purpose.

LOOK INTO THE FACTS -- PUT YOUR PARTISANSHIP ASIDE -- DO THE RIGHT THING. YOUR CONSTITUENTS ARE WATCHING YOU!!
