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.
Weldon on Cspan right now speaking is an outstanding man...
Some people think that being uncaring is a virture and that compassion isn't macho. Those who follow Jesus know that He expects the strong to also be compassionate: "If you have done it for the least of these, who are my brothers, you have done it to me."
Pres. Bush gave us all a picture of strong, compassionate leadership when he got on the plane today to save one disabled woman's life. That isn't being ruled by emotion. That is being ruled by the love of Christ.
Hearing John Lewis condemn demagoguery was simply amazing.
I know. But that was then, and this is now. And he's an idiot. With a microphone. And a vote for our future.
(This is a permanent link, you'll have to scroll down to #79 and click that one to read what they said.)
Well, it was only an hour.....
Dave Weldon up.
Scott Peterson will get a federal review. Guy that killed the girl in Florida get a federal review.
he talked to the family and discussed the case with neuralgist that examined her. Denied access to her room.
Weldon, as all Republicans, have fact to back up their arguments.
That is why Congress is acting so quickly. In the future, try to open you mind and consider obvious facts instead of wasting our time by posting your usual, knee jerk, abusive responses.....

The issue if you had read it, and thought about what I wrote, is not about Congress acting BUT ABOUT CONGRESS' INACTION ON AN EQUALLY, IF NOT GREATER ISSUE TO THIS COUNTRY. And the issue is NOT knee-jerk or ABUSIVE. It is factual.
It sounds like he sipped an extra dose of Democratic kool aid. You'd think for someone who suffered a blow to the head fighting for civil rights in a Democrat dominated south that he wouldn't have pledged his body and soul to the Democratic Party. But hey, what do I know.
Let me give an AMEN to what John Lewis did on the Selma bridge. Got his head busted over it. He was in the street to stop a bad Alabama state policy.
In that day, there was a bunch of demagoguery on states rights (paging Sheets)
Democrats have no idea of the public realtions disaster they are creating. It's as though their party is headless monster. Come to think of it, IT IS.
Thanky kindly.
When this is done, I'll read it...:)
Barney the gay-guy is just so hyped that he keeps getting time..... Absurb.. Who votes for this idiot???
A Republican Congressman on C-SPAN said that the original House Bill (Passed Thursday?) had 100 Republican sponsors and about 30 Democrat sponsors.
Always amazed me why the blacks vote so lockstep for the RATs when they (RATs) were for segregation.
The number on the floor is irrelevant -- most of them are off the floor, in their offices, etc, until it comes time to vote.
I hope Rush and FNC play this tape as well, so millions more people can hear it.
