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

Posted on 03/20/2005 6:03:40 PM PST by 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.

We can't say now we didn't do everything we could to stop the Judiciary. We really need to abolish judicial review but that's a subject for another day.

pull the plug on a loved one.

Sigh - do not use that language, please. "Pull the plug" has to do with vents, etc -

Food and water is a separate issue. And we won on that tonight.

The majority of the public wants to see her killed.
Most chose Barabbas, as well.


And 43.7% voted for Hitler.

Looks like we won the latest battle. Once my adrenaline slows down, I think I'll get a good night's sleep for a change.

"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."

We hold these truths to be SELF EVIDENT. (meaning there can be no judicial, congressional, executive review or interferrences) that all men are created equal and they are ENDOWED BY THEIR CREATOR with certain unalienable rights, among these are LIFE, liberty and the persuit of happeniness.

Also: Amendment XIV:

Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Dance, dance, dance with those ghouls. Congress has gotten in motion on this issue, and having pulled free of that mud it is free to move. Note that Congress has the constitutional right to cut off USSC review of whatever issues it wishes.

I like the fact that the Rats are split themselves 46-Yea to 53-Nay.

It appears that the Dems have some humanity, after all.

You know you have a point you know but you know the media you know is full of you know the best and you know the brightest.

If ANYONE was listening at Newsweek and this girl still has her position at this time tomorrow, well...you know...

But SHE is not gettng any say...only Michael her "husband." There is no evidence she said this, only his "word." Under the circumstances that he is living with another woman and has kids by her, he should be REMOVED as her guardian. And how about we ASK TERRI?


It doesn't matter what we think about Michael as guardian. All that matters is that it was found and upheld on appeal that there was clear and convincing evidence that this is what she wanted.


If we don't like that standard, we have to get the florida courts to change their law to not consider oral statements to be indicative of our wishes.

Here is a post I wrote earlier on the subject. It and the next one under it has links to the court docs.

MORS VINCET OMNIA is my guess at the Latin for "Death Conquers All"

My guess would be: MORS OMNIUM VICET Partly from VENI, VIDI, VICI -- Caesar famous saying of "I came, I saw, and I Conquered", but then I may be in the wrong tense... Past Tense for "VICI".
