"too easy"? Please. You say you are pro-life. How is it possible that you consider not feeding someone okay? She may not have the quality of life you desire but that does not mean she does not deserve nourishment. Pro-life is more than just anti-abortion. It has to do with life at ALL stages. "Let" her die is the mentality of the party of death. I believe you should go back and look at the whole picture of why the husband and judge want her to die.

He would be a national hero if he did. May he have the courage to do so, if the need arises.

I would encourage all to ingore the trolls. If we feed them they will stay, if we don't they will go.

Pull their feeding tube, eh?

This is no longer about Terry. This is about Judge Greer vs Congress. At least in his eyes. Black Robe Fever at its finest.

This case could unintentionally bring the battle between Congress and King Court to a head at last.

If the doctors were given the subpeonas from Congress would they be in contempt if they remove the feeding tube?

I don't know the answer to that question, tutstar.

Her friend said she stated to her that "where there is life there is hope". Who's to be believed?

It is a state judge essentially killing a witness and it will not stand.

**************

That makes sense to me, but I'm not an attorney. Are you, or is there an attorney here that can address this?

Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus going on before.
Christ, the royal Master, leads against the foe;
Forward into battle see His banners go!

Refrain

Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus going on before.

At the sign of triumph Satan’s host doth flee;
On then, Christian soldiers, on to victory!
Hell’s foundations quiver at the shout of praise;
Brothers lift your voices, loud your anthems raise.

Refrain

Like a mighty army moves the church of God;
Brothers, we are treading where the saints have trod.
We are not divided, all one body we,
One in hope and doctrine, one in charity.

Refrain

What the saints established that I hold for true.
What the saints believèd, that I believe too.
Long as earth endureth, men the faith will hold,
Kingdoms, nations, empires, in destruction rolled.

Refrain

Crowns and thrones may perish, kingdoms rise and wane,
But the church of Jesus constant will remain.
Gates of hell can never gainst that church prevail;
We have Christ’s own promise, and that cannot fail.

Refrain

Onward then, ye people, join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices in the triumph song.
Glory, laud and honor unto Christ the King,
This through countless ages men and angels sing.

Refrain

An illegal order remains illegal even if it issued by the highest authority. An order from a judge to murder a human being has no force and effect. The State Of Florida should really be taking steps to prevent the order from being carried out and arrest the judge for breaking the law. We've gotten so used to judicial tyrants that we're afraid to book them.

Bingo!

Allow me to post this in large print and in bold because it's worth repeating.

As far as I know, his [Greer's] order cannot override Congress.

Send the US Marshals!

There are many mixed-up would be lawyers out here today.

And you are one of them. Once congress issued the subpoena in Terri Schiavo's name, (which I believe they did unconstitutionally, btw) this became a federal issue. She is required to appear before congress on March 28, 2005. Anyone who interferes with this (ie by removing the feeding tube) is in contempt of Congress. Greer has rules from the bench that he is ignoring a congressional subpoena. He has no power to do this, and I am a big state's rights person. If the tube is pulled, I would issue an arrest warrant for Greer and for anyone at hospital who physically removed the tube.

At some point one of these sides needs to respect the rule of law.

They say (and the video shows) that Terri is swallowing her own saliva. The judge and Michael will not permit her to be fed orally. If I stretch it, I "might" be able to understand the leaglity of removing the feeding tube as a medical proceedure. There is NO WAY that any human can condone them not permitting her food orally.

The woman is brain damaged. There are a lot of brain damaged people out there that are still be fed.

The judge is trying to hang his hat on separation of powers.

(can congress subpoena Nixons records?)

Greer has turned this into a race.

Even if there is a special recall election the other judges will call in favors of the big law firms to defend Greer. Greer will put a "voluntary" sign up sheet inside his courtroom for all lawyers appearing before him so it can be published in advertising form as lawyers who support Greer.


I think the reall issue at this point is whether they can make her die faster. Supposedly the pain killers they will give her are just as easy to use to kill as to stop pain. Judge Greer is hoping she can be helped to die faster.

"Teri said she wants to live!!!"

Yes. I'm guessing the judge does as well. I wonder if he has thought it through.
