PEOPLE ??? .
We need to ask the MSM, the leftist, the libs, the gays, that ? would they tolerate the same thing that is happening to Terry, if it were a homosexual dying of AIDS/HIV and the family wanted to end their suffering ?.
People ?.
What we are seeing here for the passed few years or months in the stream of ideas & ideology, philosophy, values, morals, is ?.
That the left ( the libs,dems,fems,gays ) is being challenged , the issues are being forced to be dealt with, and we are winning the battle of ideas, and the fight for what is right.
The left is losing badly, and when ever they try to force their agenda on us, or their ideas, their views they , they are getting trounced.
Maybe, I am not able to articulate what I am saying here, so ? if someone can put this in better words or format, I would appreciate it.
I sure hope I am not the only one who notices what is going on between, the DEMS/LIBS vs Conservatives/American people.

If we fail to save Terry Schiavo, we fail as a society. We lose all moral direction.

We are a nation with millions of handicap parking places, braille elevator buttons, handrails and wide doors in toilet stalls, wheelchair ramps and wheelchair curbs, at costs into the billions of dollars.

In the middle of that we are now deliberately killing the inconvenient disabled through the barbarism of starvation.

Not only that, but, he was offered ( I don't' know now how much it is ) $ 1 ( maybe not 2 million ) by a company to take care of her for the rest of her life, even her parents want to take her in and care for her.
The only conclusion ?.
He's got something to hide and cover up.

Exactly. He needs her dead to bury whatever evidence she has in the back of her mind should it ever be tapped.

Ain't that the truth.
In the liberals mind, a dog has more value than a human does.
The same kind of logic is the reason why they don't want us to drill for oil up at ANWR.

This unreal situation truly makes me want to join the vigilante society. I cannot believe we are going to stand by and watch a judge kill this woman. 20,000 people rushing the building ought to do the trick. Liberals like sit-ins, we need an eat-in.

I wonder if they will tolerate the same standard that they use for Terry, as in , if a known homosexual who was dying of AIDS/HIV and is living on a feeding tube ? .
As RUSH would say ? HHHHHmmmmmmmmmmm ??????

His motive is to gain monetarily and to cover up someTHING, pure and simple.

Five months? Was that the length of the marriage? Why can't an annulment take place here? They authorities should annul this marriage, which would give all the power to Terry's family.

O.K., folks..I love Morton Kondrake and I loved "Saving Millie." But, on FOX news, Mort has just come down on the side of the short-term husband very unlike the kind of husband Mort was. The issue here is MONEY, Mort. I have studied abuse of women..I do not know whether you have investigated that epidemic in your journalistic career. I feel certain in my own heart and mind that Michael Schiavo most likely fits the category..When Millie was diagnosed with Parkinson's, you had a mature marriage. That is not the case here. One-size does not fit all!

I'm not sure what the name of this hospice is, but I will refer to it henceforth as the "Joseph Mengele Center for Useless Eaters".

Love you too, Sis. Comfort yourself with Matthew 25:41-46. It is not right to wish for anyone to go to Hell, but I think it's OK to smile a bit at God's promise to deal justly with liberals on the march. While they are busy rationalizing the tormenting and cruel murder of a helpless woman, God's justice is there in writing.

At the moment we are drifting dangerously toward anarchy.....

Right! Defiance of marriage laws by mayors, killing of judges, the suppression of free speech by universities, by legislators ( Campaign Finance Reform ), etc.

Not looking pretty.

A sneeze from SCOTUS (which may or may not have already happened) and the whole sorid affair will be over with in favor of the husband.

You have swerved right into the main problem, as Rush would say.
A sneeze from SCOTUS is all it takes to do anything.
A sneeze from SCOTUS could turn you into just plain zero (to borrow from a Schwarzeneggar movie).
It's about time the Courts were served notice they cannot sneeze at life or into the Constitution anymore.
This is the case. This is the time.

There is one question that has been troubling me - is this woman on some kind of public assistance like medicaid or medicare? That would mean that we are actually fighting to keep spending taxpayers (our dollars) on social programs.

The answer is yes, as it is for hundreds of thousands if not millions in nursing home indigent care. It is an argument to kill them all. Even Hitlery isn't stupid enough to go down that road.
