TERRI SCHIAVO DAILY MARCH 2005 PART 6- NO FOOD OR WATER IN THE 6TH-7TH DAYS - GOOD FRIDAY

various | 3-24-05

[STARWISE]

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.

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors....

I need to vent. I have been so disappointed in both the Bush bros, especially Jeb. But everytime I have mentioned it I have been flamed and reprimanded. There are Kool-aid drinkers on both sides, not just the left. I too feel this picture is so much bigger than Terri. This is the first step into euthansia and so many of us do not realize the seriousness of it all. Knowing and seeing the total picture, not only the corruptness but the future as well, I did expect Jeb to step in. Do we have a right to be disappointed? I believe yes. I do know that man will always let us down, but God will not. I believe Gramma Brad's post saying something to the effect - get your spiritual lives in order because this is so much bigger,,, was in fact prophetic. God Bless Terri. May God forgive us. Thanks for letting me rant.

...and I don't think Jeb and George realize how much we are angry at them for this. I think they thought their political careers would suffer more if they do something to help Terri, but I have a feeling they will soon find out that doing nothing hurt them more.

It's more than anger, and it's more than moral outrage. It's a knowledge that Terri was betrayed and abandoned, and so were we all. They yielded us up, and democracy also, to the judiciary.

So much for "we the people."

I know my lesson learned from all of this is that the Judicaial system is in control of the US in every area, family court, probate court, criminal court,etc.. They are the masters and now we know that is true seeing our own executive leaders bow to them! I will never forget this as long as I live. Many people will in the coming weeks, but I won't and I hope none of you will either! We must never forget Terri and keep it in the minds of people every day, including our leaders! We will not tolerate this any more!

You said it for me.

Amen

[Brad’s Gramma]

....and lead us not into temptation...

[Awestruck]

There should be a certain amount of happiness in a natural home going.. (or promoted to Glory as the Salvation Army says).. but when it is forced .. it's not so easy to understand..and it seems to hurt more..

I feel the same way about Terri as you do...I think most of us do...

[nicmarlo]

in some it even goes beyond indifference into hostility toward those who believe that Terri should live, that she is responsive, that she is not in PVS -- because, HEAVENS! the MSM doesn't say so!

We just had Rathergate....but, the media tells the truth. okay. What's wrong with these people? Could they smell the coffee if it was right under their nose?

[sfimom]

I feel the same way.........I most certainly don't feel guilty when I feed my own children but I feel guilt at every morsel or drop that enters my own mouth.......

[Theodore R.]

Women left the home in droves - dreams of more money - of larger homes (higher property taxes), nicer furniture on credit cards, a larger, more expensive wardrobe. Also, another worker in the family meant 2 cars were necessary - more car insurance, gasoline. After a hard day's work at a dreary desk, Mom is too tired to cook dinner, much less attend a PTA meeting, or be a homeroom mother to her child's classroom, be a Cub Scout Den Mother, etc. Buy fast food or easy-to-prepare microwave meals and plop it on the table, disregarding that the kids are undisciplined and have the manners of slobs.

You nailed it, lakey, but most people still have "faith" in Betty Friedan, don't they? And I'm pretty sure there are no "homeroom mothers" any more, but there may be in some of the "better" suburban schools, if they exist.

[SeaBiscuit]

I have those same sentiments.. Something is terribly wrong in our society to let this happen. It can't bode well for our future. I've had a profound sense of sadness mixed with an equally profound sense of anger..

[Shire]

Also those black congressmen like the mean-looking John Lewis would have had a different stance if Terri were black, you can bet your bottom dollar.
Can you imagine if Terri and her family were black? Trying to save her from a white husband, lawyer and judge?

This has nothing to do with her race....it is the fact that she is a Christian!

[Brad’s Gramma]

....but deliver us from evil, ......

[Awestruck]

OH my goodness honey.. I'm not the boss here..hehe.. I just play one on tv... I'm just another lamb in the Lord's care..

[Lauren BaRecall]

*grin*

[eccentric]

According to the husband from hell, cremation is what Terri would want because she's afraid of bugs.

Funeral directors should be screaming about this!!! Caskets are sealed! They will assure you that bugs are NOT going to get inside any of their caskets!!

[Awestruck]

For Thine is the Kingdom......

[Theodore R.]

I mentioned earlier that Pat Buchanan, who opposed the Bushes when it was never popular, wrote a book in 1975 called Conservative Votes, Liberal Victories. I read it in the early 1980s. What has happened is that 30 years has passed, and everything that Pat said has accelerated. "We" still win elections, but liberals still prevail on policy, now through courts.

[SeaBiscuit]

Amen

I am not nearly as eloquent as many of you here but I feel that this song is appropriate tonight.......

Eric Clapton's 'Tears in Heaven'

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way, through night and day
Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven

Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please

(instrumental)

Beyond the door
There's peace I'm sure.
And I know there'll be no more...
Tears in heaven

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

[Theodore R.]

cremation is what Terri would want because she's afraid of bugs.

This is so far-fetched that it may have actually happened. Or maybe MRS has a vivid imagination as well as an evil heart.
