US House of Rep. in an Extraordinary Sunday night Session [Schiavo] (Bush Signs Schiavo bill)

[FoxPro]

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 don’t want to be known as the party that killed Terri.

This is American history happening before your eyes.

[MarMema]

This one is the worst yet. She acts like she knows what she is saying.

[Republican Wildcat]

Here's this lady again from earlier.

[MNJohnnie]

Against. But, the Florida Legislature had a chance to act on changing the law, which is where this ought to be legislated.
Instead, the Congress decides to completely ignore everything that's happened in Florida, and order a de novo review of all facts and figures.

This is a terrible precedent to set, especially in the area of family law.

Either we're a nation of laws, or we're not

NO WRONG. This is EXACTLY what we are seeing happen. There is a gap in the law where the rights of the Parents are totally ignored. Legislature did not act. There fore the National Legislature steps in to create NEW law to address the situation. This is EXACTLY how the system is suppose to work. What is NOT suppose to happen is for unelected judges to make emotionally whimsical judgments with NO sort of check or balance on their power. What you are seeing is the system of checks and balances in action. Congress is acting to reign in an out of control judiciary just as it is suppose to work.

Was this Wasserman-Schultz women once a man?

[Keyes2000mt]

Kaptur said this should be between the family, not the courts.

[longtermmemmory]

GUARDIAN AD LITEM WAS NOT INDEPENDENT! HE WAS HAND PICKED TO GIVE THE DESIRED GREER RESULT.


Wasserman Schults is the one who sent Elian back. She is misrepresenting everything. She is just using Goebles/Hitler big lie theory. Repeat a lie.

[Petronski]

A de novo examination of Terri's case. New discovery, new findings of fact, new hearings, new everything.

[Chickenhawk Warmonger]

her cerebral cortex is NOT liquified. a persistive vegetative state means no response to pain, etc. i hope to God none of these people ever end up in the position that Terri is.

[RightWhale]

Dems haven't had a great speaker since 1972.

[Numbers Guy]

Do you mean the thin, young-ish woman with the long blonde wavy hair?

Hey, Debbie, the 80's called. They want their hair back.

[Tree of Liberty]

Drudge isn't hosting the audio, the Family Research Council is. Drudge is only linking to it.

[Dolphy]

She didn't look so good...I think the Dems are bringing in people off the street to pose as Representatives and vote. They probably offered cigarettes.

[Jrabbit]

I think she might have been a homeless person that just wandered in.....

[Ladysmith]

Now would be a good time for that tape...

[MarMema]

Too bad we have to close with this witch.

[sinkspur]

Congress is indeed acting under Constitutional authority to determine jurisdiction of federal courts.

Congress will not have the final say. It is likely that the USSC, which has already ruled on this matter once, will determine that Congress does not have the authority to overrule Florida courts.

[VRWC For Truth]

If the detainees at Guantanamo were withheld food and water, consider the uproar.

[BCrago66]

This is court idolotry. Only the euthanasia advocate chosen by the court may express an opinion. Other nurses and doctors, even those who saw Terri, don't count.

[jayef]

Her cerebral cortex is liquefied? Wow . . . I thought that only happened to Martians.

[MNJohnnie]

Kaptur said this should be between the family, not the courts.


What about the Parent's rights? They are family too.
