Continuation of Terri Schiavo daily March threads. Due to overwhelming participation we reached over 5000 posts in three days time!
I know, I've told A. Pole I'm sorry.
Randall Terry said the judge was a she. I heard him on Hannity. I though he would know. Only reason I referred to a she.
"According to Dr. William Hammesfahr, world renowned neurologist:
Terri's feeding tube is for the convenience of nurses; not because Terri needs it. Terri does not drool. Liquid is the hardest thing to swallow, and she swallows 1½ to 2 liters of saliva a day.
Terri is not in a persistent vegetative state or coma. She is a living, thinking person who makes choices and decisions. This is terrible. "
Thank you.
It was actually Randall Terry referring to the Judge as a " she". HE surely wasn't UP on the case was he. That is scary since he is supposed to be respresenting the parents...............ugg
She communicates in her own way. She can only pronounce a hand full of words. Friday, I think it was her father (?), but someone told her to she'd better tell them she wanted to live because they were going to kill her and she shouted, "I waaa", so loudly the guard stationed outside her door ran in to see what was the matter. Now, what does that tell you?
BTW, the guard was hired by hino (husband in name only) to frisk her family so they wouldn't bring in food, a camera for evidence, or anything to stimulate her. The last time hino pulled her feeding tube, he sent the sherrif's dept. in to threaten suit against the church and arrest the priest if he gave her last rites. You see, if she was able to swallow to swallow the wine and host, his case would be blown out of the water and he'd be spending the rest of his life behind bars. The moment she dies, despite her Catholic beliefs, he will cremate her so all evidence of trauma and broken bones (bone scan showed abuse and doctors stated someone had really worked her over) will be destroyed forever.
No, as I understand it, these are the Republicans that voted in FLORIDA against the Bill there. Terry Randall says if they can be convinced to come over or change their vote, they can pass the Bill in Florida that would make it illegal to withhold food or water from a individual without a written directive!!!!!
I think he said they need 3 more votes.
Welcome to FreeRepublic A. Pole
Randall Terry.
You made me tear up. Only Freepers apologise so quickly and easily. :)
I wont speak for anyone but myself, but I agree with you - utterly horrifying to me. Like being buried alive.
I think I could handle it if I could just blink yes or no answers. But, to be utterly dependent and unable to communicate would be a living nightmare for me. To be unaware and have people messing with my private body would be almost as bad.
The good news is that more of us are getting our written directives made now. I wish every single person would.
Its appears the Federal Judge on the case is a liberal.
I was wondering if the President can just issue an EXECUTIVE ORDER to restore the feeding tube?
We now know we are surrounded by liberal activist judges, that want to make law, and the day of reckoning is coming for the Democratic Party and the Liberal Judges.
This Day will not be forgotten.
Hey, no problem. I should not have barged into the topic for which I am not prepared and without verifying the radio talk claims.
My thoughts too! "Randall? Where have you been? You don't even know the judge?"
so what's the harm in letting her have an IV while he studies? he knows time is of the essence here.
Thanx
I don't know. There have been times in my life when it seemed like the deck was stacked and nothing good would come. At the right moment God brought blessings and changes.
I have no guess one way or the other.
Just keep praying!
Lord we know the children of Israel pleaded for judge to judge them, they'd go to their sin, repent and then turn away again. Lord let our nation return to you, let the revival begin in each of our hearts.
God let there be one righteous man who will not let Terri be killed. Lord we're begging and praying for her life. We're weary of unrighteous judges who don't even follow man's law. Lord help us!! Forgive our country for its sins. Deliver Terri and deliver us!
Thank you Jesus.
Let the walls of Jericho come down as they did for Joshua.
Lord please hear your Christian soldiers not only here, but throughout the world, that believe that only YOU as our creator can take innocent life. Terri does not have a voice here Lord, we need you to intervene on her behalf. So much evil has been done to her already, please let that end today by having this judge rule in favor of life. We are gathered together asking your help as your faithful servants! Lord Jesus please help Terri and her family!
I guess I am too. This must mean that if we get subpoenaed in the future we can just ignore it and not go to jail!(sarcasm)

Update From the Court:

No decision from the Judge. The Judge did not give any indication when he would issue a ruling. The court hearing lasted approximately two hours.
David Gibbs: Clearly stated his arguments surrounding the law and the basis of the Congress and the statement of the President of the United States.
David argued how the US Congress, the President of the United States and the Vatican supported Terri's rights. Mr. Gibbs eloquently spelled out that this hearing today was not to discuss the entire case, but to have an emergency decision to
reinsert Terri's feeding tube. Gibbs stated, "Patrick Henry said give me liberty or give me death. Gibbs argued that if she is dead, she has no liberty."
George Felos: Droned on for an hour essentially attempted to make every argument he has been making for the last several years. He then rudely stood on the street corner and spoke to reporters stating they would have to "slice Terri's stomach open" in order to put the tube back in. Felos tried to convey to the
reporters how the "majority" of America agreed with him and that what Terri's supporters were attempting to sell was propaganda. Felos stated that the President and the Congress have overstepped their boundaries.
Felos again tried to play Doctor and discuss a procedure he knows nothing about. He also does not address how if he wasn't Hitler, her tube would still be in. He never had to have the tube removed, it could have been capped off.
George Felos in my opinion is an evil man who walks the same path of the men who callously marched people into the gas chambers.
Judge Whittemore seemed to listen carefully to the issues surrounding Terri's religious rights being violated and her legal due process not being followed.
Mary Schindler told me this afternoon, that this morning at 6:00 AM, Terri did laugh with her father. Mary is very frightened for her daughter right now. It has been 72 hours since Terri has had fluids and nutrition. The Schindlers are a loving family and wish only to take their daughter home to provide her with the same love they gave to her from the day she was born.
President Bush issued a statement earlier saying that this is a complex case and a serious issue, however it is wise to always look on the side of life.
We pray that Judge Whittemore will come to a decision soon and will realize that Terri's life is pending his decision.
VERY interesting those dark sided senators are all from FL. I totally believe, Greer or Felos or someone has dirt on them. Isn't it odd that all FL judges have agreed with Greer and now FL senators are toting the line as well?
