Mod note: Calls for violence will result in suspensions
Michael Schiavo has filed a petition with the Supreme Court asking them to stay out of the case.
The second judge fairly pleaded with the lawyers to frame their arguements to him in a way he could act. They instead argued that her religious rights were violated. When I heard that my heart just sank.
Some sort of stay on Greer's authority needs to be made, in the name of investigating corruption there, then his injunction preventing Terri's rescue can be temporarily set aside.
Is there no mechanism to stop a runaway court in this land?
I think I would have rioted when I watched the cops putting handcuffs on that little boy and girl yesterday who tried to take in water.
Goosesteppers only follow orders.
There is no equal but separate between branches anymore. The judge has become the maker, employer, jury and outcome of the law.
This is very sad. but hopefully, this will allow the Republicans in the Senate to do what they need to stop the Usurpation of the law by the judiciary in this country.

"...The pundits keep telling me that my stand on this issue puts my political fortunes in jeopardy. So be it. That revelation produces from me no flinching. There is a simple reason why: I know that in life dreams come and dreams go. But conscience is forever. I can live with the concept of not serving in Congress. I cannot live with the idea of remaining in Congress at the expense of doing what I believe to be right."

They may have done a good job in State Court but in Federal Court they were way over their heads when they went after Greer instead of presenting the new facts to be heard.
Our local radio had that Randall Terry turned down most lawyers that offered their help pro-bono to fight in federal court for what its worth.
"There's many hundreds of good Florida freepers down here that have been valiantly fighting the good fight. Many have jobs that depend on the tourist trade."
Why do you think it "all happens in Florida?" It's all happening here because we are fighting the invading liberal northerners.. they want us to become New York or New Jersey and we're not giving up easy.
I agree.
Where are all the Freepers who are Florida lawyers? I can't believe that there isn't anyone out there who could figure out a way to file something that would block this.
That tells me that there really isn't anything that anyone can do. The law is the law. It needs to be changed so that this doesn't happen again.
noted.
Blind, or they know that this goes deeper than we imagine.
So a controlling adulterous spouse (who the wife was planning to divorce before her sudden brain injury) - who along with his attorney (and that attorney's hospice?) have a financial interest in her death, receives the court's backing to euthanize his wife.
Despite a disputed medical diagnosis of PVS and that (tainted) spouse's hearsay (provided only after the wife was awarded a large medical malpractice settlement for rehab therapy) that the wife did not want to live "in that condition".
Where is the political party that loves to jump on
"suspicious timing?" Ah well...
What "condition" did Terry envision at age 26 when she expressed her "last wishes" to her soon-to-be ex spouse? The condition of being able to recognize and smile at her mother?
And the courts have given her helpless body over to Schiavo and Felos despite the loving parents being willing to undertake the cost and care of their daughter.
Father, Father....
When did President George W Bush say he would act on his own yesterday?
Mark Levin? a JUDICIAL SCHOLAR?????
I think you're right about that. I'm not an expert, so either Gibbs', for some reason, couldn't do it - perhaps time was an issue, perhaps it wouldn't guarantee re-insertion of the tube and a new review would take longer than an acceptable window of time.
Either that, or he's not a very good lawyer. I think everyone's hands were tied with the tube being taken out. That's why, among the most damnable aspects of this case, it is stupefying that the judiciary - heck, at least the legislature - would have at LEAST said, 'put the tube back in so we can have a fresh look at this without a shot-clock to worry about.'
How on earth would an autopsy show whether Terri could, with rehabilitation, experience improvement in her condition??? Autopsies show what is, not what might be.

"Is this request about DCF?"
No. This SCOTUS refusal to hear the case has to do with the steps taken after Congress passed that emergency bill. Apparently SCOTUS doesn't feel that any improper rulings have been made by the lower courts in that matter.
The DCF thing is something else.
Moreover, in 1999, the FL legislature could have passed a bill that DIDN'T call food and hydration "artificial life support" like it did.
Judge Bork seems to get it. He was just on FOX commenting that he's concerned that someone is being killed without due process.
