I think we've all waited long enough for this matter to be resolved.

If that happens is there any way the ghouls can prevent the tube from being reinserted?

I don't think a judge moves this slowly on emergency injunctive relief to insert a feeding tube. I am very pessimistic.

Napolitano was chosen by Fox for his telegenic presence not his knowledge of the law. He was a N.J. Superior court judge. A step up from municipal court judge but certainly not in the ranks of a U.S. District Court judge. Given the patronage system at play in N.J., one suspects legal acumen had very little to due with his ability to become a 'judge.'

what is the NEXT MOVE of people who are just in this case?

I heard earlier that there was another appeal ready to file with another (higher) federal court, I think in Atlanta, in just this eventuality.

Seems to me something like this happened in Bush v. Gore.

But whatever, we know we can't rely on the corrupt judiciary. THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE MUST ACT.

What apparently happened, and I am just guessing, from the title and the follow up, is that:

1. Judge refuses to hear case, and refuses to rule for tube reinsertion.

2. After this, Parents go in with emergency request, to reinsert the tube, because they intend to appeal and if Terri isn't going to get hydrated and fed NOW, she won't live, or be "past the point of no return", by the time they go and have their appeal heard by the 11th Circuit Appeals Court.

What kind of idiot judges don't see what the heck is going on here?

That would be the same kind of idiot judges who are looking solely at the politics of the scenario, and damning the LAW. (Of course, should the decision not go Terri's way, I'm sure they'll "spin" something that the average person will find believable).

This will be one of the steep prices we pay for the confirmation of so many of Clinton's judges. You know that none of them are defenders of the Constitution. And yet the wrangling about Bush's judicial nominations goes on......

According to Hammesfahr, the guy who spent 10 hours with her, she should be able to regain speech after therapy, and go eat in restaurants.

Hammesfahr is on Hannity and Colmes tonight -- listen to what he has to say!

If he rules against re-inserting the tube the Schindlers will immediately file an appeal during which time the tube goes back in.

On what basis?

Do you know how many people in nursing homes can't feed themselves???

Good point. My uncle was in a nursing home for a couple of years, unable to recognize anybody or get out of bed. According to the Florida judge, I guess we should have pressed a pillow over his face once he stopped feeding himself and got it over with.

You should hear Mark Levin rip Napolitano to shreds on Levin's radio show (WABC, New York).

well I would hope any judge makes a finding on the law and not his own personal beliefs.....don't you......I mean his beliefs may influence part of his decision but I would hope that he follows the law.......if I ever end up in court, and I get a Dem. judge, I hope he renders his findings without prejudice to my views

One way or the other, this case has the POTENTIAL (if acted on correctly by Congress) to be a lightning rod/kick in the a-- for our guys to actually DO SOMETHING about the out of control judiciary.

Whether they act on it or not is a whole 'nother matter..

It is both legal and constitional to protect civil rights.

USC 14th Amendment 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.

Does Michael's hearsay about Terri's "wishes" constitute "due process"? The hearsay he remembered after the $1.2M settlement - years after Terri's "heart attack"?
