Part 7 - EASTER SUNDAY -NO FOOD OR WATER 10-11TH DAYS- SHE'S FIGHTING TO LIVE [Schiavo]
Continuing thread ^ | 03/27/05 | various

Posted on 03/27/2005 6:45:08 PM PST by tutstar

After much hard work that has gone on for well over a year, it's been a week and 2 days since Terri has been without food and hydration.

Many asking the question how we could have become such a callous society as to deny a helpless human the basic necessity of food and water.

Terri's plight has brought to light many problems in the judicial system and opened our eyes to the fact that some laws need to be changed.

The work will continue to protect helpless individuals from suffering the same injustice as Terri.

A woman is dying and they're talking about cruelty to chickens. Try running that through the brain a few times.

I'm trying, but my brain keeps rejecting it. I'm supposed to be doing paperwork, but I'm thinking that it is important to stick around for news about Terri.

Is discussing meaningful things like cock fighting, Florida's version of a fillibuster???? They are disgusting.

Is it possible that our side is delaying, while JJ tries to twist a few more arms?

I'm tired! I'm tired of waking up every morning and hearing nothing but bad news for Terri. I just want to hear now she is gone so that she will not suffer anymore. I am going to go lay down for a while. I will be back on later. I'm a bit sad right now.

"I just keep looking at it as the most basic, that Terri is being deprived of her Constitutional rights -- which are recognized in fact as GOD given rights."

I've been making the exact same argument fer weeks or months, but the Judiciary has overruled us.

"What's wrong with one person on the chain of command slapping him/herself on the forehead and saying, "Folks, what are we thinking? A woman is being denied water and food in this blessed land of plenty! Now let's make it right for her right now!"

You'd think one judge wouldda had compassion enuff to do what you propose, but none did.

It's the Judiciary we need to be focused on, imho...there is no need to throw Dubyuh--or Jeb--under the bus fer this!!

FReegards...MUD

BTW...good to see you, too, my FRiend!!

I was talking with my husband this morning about Mrs. Bush's trip to Afghanistan! I can't believe that her visit on women's rights amounts to a hill of beans to Americans.

Surely, no one can be so naive to think that this will in ANY way take the spotlight off Terri. Those days are OVER. The sleeping giant of American is awakening, thank God.

I pray that's the case. But, praise the senate, the cocks are safe.

The gop miscalculated Terri's support vs. their support. Where are people heading? Not towards Mehlman.

This is not surprising. The fix is in. It's the only thing that makes any sense.

Wonderful. Lull us back to sleep. Some of us are getting too uppity out here.

We're not supposed to notice or even care that a disabled woman is being killed in 21st century America.

"Reagan IS "conservatism." It's a shame he's gone..."

Agreed...but he's still gone.

"I don't think you remember Ronald Reagan nor do you believe as he did."

Well, yer WRONG...MUD

What shocks me is how ignorant the public is about what is REALLY happening here!!!

Just as those of us who have followed it for 2+ yrs or more have come to some certain conclusions the general public's perceptions will change as they learn more about it. They will attack whoever they perceive to be to be in the wrong about it. Politicians would do well to remember that public opinion can turn 180 degrees at the drop of a hat.

Don't worry. We're trying to get Judge Greer impeached on the grounds that he has ordered something that is publicly repugnant and against the constitution of the U.S.

No updates at this time but it's in Tallahassee.

All we need is the 11th to reverse the district court's decision based on the error made when they ignored the congressional bill...then they will order the tube back in and remand to the district court for a de novo trial. I am not sure however if they will hold a hearing first as to the injunction...if so, that is what we are waiting for....LORD HELP TERRI TO HANG ON!

It is truly frightening that we now live in a country where evil walks the earth. All you need is money. Actually evil can flourish when good men do nothing.

Yes, I contiue to hear and read the same myths and lies perpetuated, such as "Terri has been in a Persistant Vegetative State for 15 years" blah, blah. She is NOT! If they would take 5 minutes to actually read the description of a PVS, it is so clear that she is not in one!

Some are ignorant, and some are apathetic maybe because they have no hope in their lives (y'know..."eat, drink & be merry, for tomorrow we die.").
