I really love President Bush...very much. My intention is not to bash him, but when he's wrong...he's wrong. And right now an American woman is being murdered by government legislatures and the courts. He needs to do or say something...at the very least I would like to see heartfelt moral outrage...I have not seen that. I have seen a sigh, a shrug, and "Oh, well, did what I could."

My intention is not to bash the President...but it is also not to be blindly loyal when he's wrong (and also, please know, I'm not saying you are...just saying how I feel about it).

“Where There’s Life, There’s Hope”: Terri’s Case Back to Court
By The Empire Journal
Where there’s life, there’s hope.

As Terri Schindler-Schiavo clung to life in a living testimony of her desire to live, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta agreed to allow her parents, Mary and Robert Schindler Sr., to file an emergency motion requesting a new hearing on the reinsertion of her feeding tube.

The motion asks to have the feeding tube reinserted immediately “in light of the magnitude of what is at stake and the urgency of the action required”.

Felos Exposed, Autopsy Mandated In Schiavo Case

By The Empire Journal

As first reported Tuesday by The Empire Journal, the announcement by Michael Schiavo’s attorney that he had decided to allow an autopsy to be performed if his wife, Terri Schindler-Schiavo dies, was bogus, no more than spin and yet another cover-up in the case.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

I'm with you, Freepertoo. One party is in our face as to where they stand so there is no mistaken them. The other party tells you what you want to hear but gives you excuses why it can't be done. If this woman is successfully killed, then the grace that God afforded us will be gone.

Live a life filled with love for others, following the example of Christ, who loved you and gave Himself as a sacrifice to take away your sins. And God was pleased, because that sacrifice was like sweet perfume to Him. Ephesians 5:2 (NLT)

I'm disappointed also that he hasn't done anything more, but I am not in a position (and I'd say no one here is, as we're not privy to the info he has) to judge him for why he hasn't done more since he made a special trip back to DC to sign a law for Terri in the middle of the night.

When you say things like this, "I have seen a sigh, a shrug, and 'Oh, well, did what I could.'" it spreads a misconception when we've never seen him sigh and shrug and say that. In actuality, we've seen him make a special trip to save ONE person's life: Terri's.

President Bush is human, so he's going to make mistakes. Whether he's making one here, I don't know enough to say, even though people keep posting stuff that says he does. In reality, things are more complicated than that.

I will say this: I have seen W stand up and do what is right REGARDLESS of what people said about him, so I have no reason to think that that is what is holding him back now. He must have a good reason, and until I hear otherwise, I'm not going to criticize a man who HAS tried to save Terri.

I think it's better for us to wait until the dust settles and hopefully the truth will come out over time.
