Judge George Greer ruled that the State of Florida has no right to take custody of Terri Schiavo, which ruling came hours after an appeal by Terri's parents to re-insert the feeding tube was refused by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, another hearing was scheduled tonight before US District Judge James D. Whittemore .. the same judge who previously heard and denied the request subsequent to the 'de novo' intention of the law past last weekend by the Congress and signed by President Bush, in an effort to confirm that no stone was left unturned before Terri would endure legally sanctioned dehydration until death.
Father God, as we come to the close of another day, we again acknowledge that You are Sovereign and that You are the only true and just Judge. We have many questions in our hearts tonight, Lord. Questions about our leaders and what they could have done and what they may still be able to do on Terri's behalf.
And yet we acknowledge Lord that we also fail in so many ways. We have all put our hearts and souls into wanting Terri to live, and if I know anything at all about President Bush and Governor Bush I know that they too have agonized over what is being done to Terri and they desire for her to live. Bless them for their efforts, and Lord, if there is still something more for them or any of us to do, I pray that they will see that and will have the courage to act. Remove any confusion from their minds, Lord, and from their advisers. Bless all who have been working and praying tirelessly on Terri's behalf.
We also ask for a change of heart in George Greer, and Micahel Schiavo. You are their Creator also, Lord, and You are able to soften their hearts if they are at all willing.
We also pray for peace and comfort for Terri's family and friends. May they be able to have a supernatural rest tonight and rise refreshed tomorrow to a new day. I pray Lord that good news will await them. And if not, I pray for your abundant grace.
And lastly Lord, but certainly not least, we pray for our dear and precious sister Terri. Cradle her in Your arms tonight. Comfort her. Give her Your nourishment Lord. Preserve her life if that is Your will. And if it is Your time for her to come Home to be with You, we pray that her Home-going will be peaceful and joyous, for we know that You are walking with her through this shadow of the valley of death and will welcome her Home with open arms.
We still would love a miracle, Lord, that would raise her up. We have no one else to look to, but to You. We place all this in Your hands, and we trust You completely. In the Name and blood of Jesus I ask all this, Amen.
It is a serious question.
You have a lawyer making a representation to the tribunal.
If the lawyer is lying to the judge just to have the tube reinserted, the judge has to make a finding regarding the statement. If the judge does not say that the vocalizations were let me live, the judge could just say it was a misinterpritation. Otherwise the attorney may be in larger trouble. If the judge finds the attorney intentionally lied to the court (ethical violation of lying to the tribunal) the judge may HAVE to report the attorney to the bar.
If the judge does that it also solidifyies the inevitable emergency appeal. I bet Felos and his fellow hemlock society types are mystified why the mother and father will not quit.

LOL! Me too!
Well folks, guess I'm headed to bed. Another night goes by and still nothing for Terri. I fear she will die some time this weekend if she doesn't get help that she so desperately needs. I hope I wake in the morning to some good news for once in this tragic mess. All my mornings have started so badly since last week. I can't bear to hear more sad news for Terri. Will be praying. Someone please ping me if they hear any news! Thanks!
amen
Amen to your prayer!
amen
But then he wouldn't have goten that special award a while ago for his great judging.
Greer has been asked four times to recuse himself. He has illegally said no each time.
According to Florida Law, when a party states that there is a conflict with a judge, and requests he recuse himself, he MUST recuse himself immediately.
The Shindlers have asked the judge to recuse himself four or five times. He has refused.
Amen.
Phil, I love your graphic!!! It's so beautiful.
I'm gonna check out your link now.
Goodnite, sleep well... will ping if we hear anything.. have peace!
Amen
Yes, exactly, if they would do their jobs than this whole thing could unfold and the truth could come out, that is ALL it would take...and the congress even send something to the fed court to tell them that, which is why Whittemore gave the rehearing...only a de novo trial should have occurred, and the feeding should have begun immediately when that was granted. This is a court disobeying the people that we elect to make our laws!

Maybe its like getting your name written on the blackboard when we were in elementary school. If it gets written up there too many times ya stay in and read during recess?

Wasn't that the B.L. Zeebub award for outstanding service in the field of bench leglislation and enforcement tactics?
