nay, its very reason to exist - to protect the fundamental, inalienable rights of its citizens.

And a court has found that Terri Schiavo does not want extra ordinary measures used to preserve her life and that she has that right.

Until that ruling is overturned, if Jeb does act outside the scope of his authority, he will be violating Terri Schiavo's rights.

Two possibiliteis, here:

1. You were conversing with someone who is CINO (Christian In Name Only). Many heretics and apostates still attend churches everywhere; it's their substitute for mebership in the Rotary or Kiwanis Clubs.

2. You were conversing with someone more recently brought to faith who has not yet fully realized all of the moral ramifications of the techings of Scripture. For many converts, that is a real process of growth and change and they need alot of grace and mercy along the way.

Nah, they'll let Whittemore skate.

Just like they'll let Greer off scott-free.

Our side has lost the will for a REAL fight. And the Dems and their pals know it.

It may be done for the Republicans. It has now been proven when they are up against evil, they fall apart. What kind of message does this send to our enemies, tyrants, and dictaors when even President Bush can't save 1 handicap woman from being starved to death. What pray tell our our young men and woment thinking in Iraq and Afganistan now?

"I guarantee Judge James Whittemore will be impeached by congress for ignoring and NOT following directions..."

Thanks for that reply. Is impeachment by Congress the only legal way to get rogue judges off the bench?

When did Frist say this? I thought his posturing the past month or so indicated that he DOES have the votes.

Did anyone accuse you of being a troll when you signed up on Aug 24, 2000?

I think the newbie was sincere, this could help Jeb's political career, secondary to doing the right thing.


You made the same mistake.

Putting the aspect of Jeb's possible political, personal, professional gain ( and suspected exploitation ) at the beginning of the statement, with "doing the right thing" as an afterthought, as an "oh by the way it's the right thing to do despite the fact that the evil K. Rove told you to do it for the BFEE...as they say at DU.

I made LOTS of mistakes as a newbie. I STILL screw up.

no way no how is any judge going to be challenged by congress.

FORGET IT. It is not going to happen. Greer is not going to worry about contempt. Whittmore is not going to be impeached.

You are wasting time.

I certainly hope you are correct about this.

Sigh I think the law has truly failed Terri in every sense of the word. A mentally disabled woman is being starved/dehydrated in a hospital room, with security guards throwing her family out at the door. What else is there to say? It's a big injustice and the polls show 60-70% don't care, I'm disheartened.

Saw this morning that he doesn't think he has the votes. Some of his compatriots aren't sure!

He is without a doubt weaker than Lott if that is possible.

What a court finds is not the measure of one's rights. Real rights are inalienable, a court decision cannot strip a person of them. In the specific case, the court's finding is of course an abomination that should offend anyone even reasonably familiar with the facts of the case. The court made the finding in contravention of law - hearsay evidence is not admissible in court, yet that's all the court's findings of Terri's alleged will is based on.

Make your voices heard, Floridians. Be warned, silence will speak louder than works.

Oh... furthermore, food and water are not extraordinary measures. There's nothing that she requires to stay alive that you and I do not also require.
