**Exclusive Fri Mar 18 2005 00:50:07 ET** The Chairman of the Health, Education, Labor, and Pension (HELP) Committee, Mike Enzi (R-Wyoming) has requested Terri Schiavo to testify before his congressional committee, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. In so doing it triggers legal or statutory protections for the witness, among those protections is that nothing can be done to cause harm or death to this individual.
Exactly. If they would release this woman, her parents would care for her. Instead, they want to take the action that will result in her death. I, too, want the authorities to LET THIS WOMAN GO!!!
I have been worry about this quite a while, looks like a stay of execution can be ordered. Enough time to legally get things back fully in her and her parents favor, one hopes, and out of the hands of that scoundrel Michael!!
"...this prayer..."
Thank you.

Righteous sarcasm (in the case of my #460) !
I have watched you contort logic and reason on this thread claiming to be defending the Constitution, but this is almost funny coming from someone calling himself a conservative.
The judiciary is the avenue the left has chosen to disregard the will of the people. The legislature is chosen by the people, and THEY have come to Terri's defense.
The Constitution protects the life of each citizen, and you have chosen to accept the will of a liberal judge to defend the MURDER of this innocent woman.
Think it over. You can't really mean that you support the will of this single judge over the will of the people of Florida.
This is wonderful news! But I'm afraid to take a breath just yet. Because that judge and Michael are so determined to kill Terri I'm afraid they'll go against congress. I'm going to keep praying until I know she's safe from them.
Extremely well spoken. Thank You. I would sign my name to it right under yours.
Amen and AMEN, kayak! Thank you!
Too cute :)

Marshals can be sent to "arrest" Terri if she fails to show.
I can assure you that he does NOT speak for my vote.
To compare Congress to drunken sailors is an insult to drunken sailors.

Thank You! I never thought of that. That means the judge and Michael can't play God anymore. They have to let Terri live.
I'm worried too that they will just proceed according to their plan. I am afraid they will not be deterred by a subpoena.
Let me join my prayer with yours:
O Lord God Almighty,
you who know your own,
you who have called us to trust in you,
you who have asked us to be
the leaven of heaven in a hard, sin-filled world,
the light on the hill,
salt,
to be witnesses of your way,
hear our prayer, O Lord,
and let our cry come unto thee,
as we pray for Terri,
as we pray for her parents,
as we pray for those who care for her,
as we pray for those who work to help her,
as we pray for all those who would harm her,
as we pray for all people in Terri's situation,
as we pray for all those fighting the culture of death,
as we pray for all who wrongly think they are doing good, choosing death over life.
Help us, O Lord,
to choose life over death,
Help us, O Lord,
to lose our fear of standing up for the right,
Help us, O Lord,
to not be ashamed to shine your light before others,
Help us, O Lord,
to be willing witnesses
that you are the truth, the way, the life,
this day and always,
in the name of Jesus,
Amen.

UTI'S (which going untreated must have been excruciating), Dental Decay (anybody here remember their last abcessed tooth? Hurt like He!!, didn't it) and I'm sure she has survived many other infections, bedsores and such with the likely possibility of sepsis (blood infection) being a complication of some of them.
YET, the lady is still here.
We definitely should be at least humble enough to respect the tenacity for life the woman has and the NEEDLESS suffering she has been put through.
