This is an unprecedented session. The Congress is meeting to save one persons life (in real time).
The only reason the Democrats are agreeing to this is that they dont want to be known as the party that killed Terri.
This is American history happening before your eyes.
This really makes the democrat party look like the true inheritors of the Nazi philosophy.

I didn't want to bring the "N" word to this thread, but that is the exact sentiment I was thinking! They are the party of Death.
I am amused at all these Ds who are so enthralled with States Rights and Federalism all of a sudden.
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Isaiah 5:20 ASV
No, no, you must have missed it. Chris is a student of the Dan Blather School of Evidence!
Now you advocate a humane morphine drip or as some would call it murder...
A morphine drip isn't even in the discussion. Never was. You know she doesn't even meet Florida's threshold for PVS?
And if she is, as you say, in a PVS, why do they give her morphine each time she has the tube put in or out? It's because she feels pain.
He said that we should not be spending time with Terri since others in the world are starving. IOW more important things to do.
Conyers now focusing on what we are going to appear to the other nations of the world? Conyers is woried about the French? What a moron and a mental midget.
Sensenbrener is correcting Conyers LIE about what TX gov bush did on living wills.
The Democrat speakers are droning on about "The Founding Fathers" and sound so DEAD while doing it!
Is Hillary Rodham passing them copies of
the Constitution and saying "Read THIS!"?
Why is it the DEMS want Terri DEAD???
He's not even there. It's an auto-reply thingie, it is programmed to just keep saying the same thing over and over.
He's in bed doing his bong.
The 1998 Florida Legislature created (CS/CS/HB 3387);
"The Panel For The Study of End-Of-Life care".
This 22 member panel was directed to study issues related to the care provided to persons as they near the end of their lives.
This panel was the starting point for the legislation that was eventually passed and changed the law in 1999 in Florida that included "food & water" in the definition of "artificial life support".
See Florida Statutes 765.101
See a copy of this panels report in the attachments
Among the various panel members you will find listed - Mary Labyak - of Suncoast Hospice. Mary Labyak was on the same board as other Suncoast Hospice Directors - George Felos (Michael Shiavo's attorney) and Rep. Gus Michael Bilirakis (co-sponsor of HB 2131).
3 ambulances at hospice, msnbc speculates they are taking terri to hospital to get new feeding tube. All fed judges in Fla onn call and appellate judges in Atlanta standing by.
I think she will get it back, amazing.
Are yall seeiing this on tv right now?
It's hardly a new thing. What is scary is that so many people don't know this is a national issue, and most of those who do know don't know much about the situation.
Thanks. Suits the entire disgusting mess perfectly.
another ambulance arrives, now three~
I'd love to send it to that annoying Neal Boortz. Heck, he'd just say it was "reflex".
Jerk.
My Congressman Tom Cole is now speaking.
Stalin said one death is a tragedy, a million is just a statistic. I think some of them might be wonder how much they can stomach being Dems. I'm also seeing this among some of the women I work with.
Ignore those nozzles on the ceiling.
THe purpose apparently is to provide an acceptable method of assisited suicide. It is wrong.
