I can't understand this, most of the democrats around here where I live are for saving Terri, why would they go against them ? Many Catholic Democrats...what is wrong with this picture?
all of my Catholic friends are for saving her too.
I read that Wexler in the House and Kennedy in the Senate are going to block or at least delay today's proceedings. They are trying to get enough support to block what is proposed. That's what I read. I'm looking for the link to it. It scared the bejeebers out of me.
ORGEON'S DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSMAN EARL BLUMENAUER VOWS TO KILL THE FEDERAL BILL TODAY

March 20, 2005
PINELLAS PARK, Fla. As Republican lawmakers scramble to pass legislation in an attempt to preserve the life of a brain-damaged woman, one Oregon congressman is doing all he can to stop the bill.
The emergency measure, which passed the Senate today, would allow Terri Schiavo's (SHY'-vohz) parents to take their case to a federal judge and take Schiavo's fate out of Florida courts. Judges there had ordered her feeding tube removed.
But Oregon's Democratic Congressman Earl Blumenauer says the measure is immoral because Schiavo made it clear to her husband that she would not want to live in a vegetative state.
He is organizing the opposition to the measure, which comes before the House on Sunday afternoon. One-third of the members present need to vote "No" to ensure that the feeding tube is not put back in.
