Suddenly all I'm hearing from the liberals are about how we are "a nation of laws, a nation of laws." But now get this:
"We live in a system of laws, not of men."
(Susan Estrich, on with Greta, 8:55 PM PT )
Can you believe it??? NO, Susan!!! We are a nation of men who care for men, and who write laws. Our laws serve men, NOT vice versa!!
You said: "F.S. 415 gives the Governor permission to place a disabled person into protective custody, something like that. It's late but that's the law."
I heard Terri's parents puzzling over why Gov. Bush has not yet used his constitutional powers to act.....
This is heartrending.
Do you have any clue why neither the governor nor the president have written executive orders?
I just wrote Bush again, reminding him we are three EQUAL branches of government, that the Supreme Court decision is not the final word!!!! Pray that he hears and understands.
I will never understand why he has not intervened. A day or two is understandable. But not now. Would you ever trust a man who had the power to give you food and water, but withholds it despite pressure?
Why should I trust you, Bush? Isnt' it time to get your own wisdom, your own Christian maturity that doesn't require advisors?? Terri is SUFFERING. Rescue her, let the courts decide later.
If they decide yes, to put her to death, it will be harder, because she has family who cares for her, as well as a nation. Are we going to be silent as one by one the disabled, or the unattractive are murdered? INSTEAD, we could be a nation which suddenly turns, WANTING the disabled and helpless, VALUING life!!! Wanting unwanted babies!
