Geez, so today we've had both Jesse Jackson and Pat Buchanan coming out in support of Terri Schiavo? Makes a person wonder if they should be in agreement with them.

He's been saying it on FOX. It's just that he is drowned out by the other fanatics jumping for facetime.

Pat never misses a chance to attack Republicans. He needs to go crawl back into his hole.

"Pat never misses a chance to attack Republicans. He needs to go crawl back into his hole."

Yep. He's pathetic, just like all the fake "conservatives" who are showing up here and attacking Jeb in an effort to separate the pro-life people from the Republican party.

The real enemy is the judicial tyrants. The real solution is the Constitutional Option, so that GWB can appoint conservative judges over the fillibuster of the Dims.

Why is it that you never miss an opportunity to attack anyone critical of GWB or republicans?

It's absolutely mind-boggling that these 'small-government' folks would like to see executive tyranny in place of judicial tyranny. If either of the Bush brothers sent in the NG, gunships, Delta Force, or whatever it is that some of the people on these boards are calling for lately, it would set a completely different (yet equally dangerous) precedent.

The system of checks and balances, without a doubt, must be preserved -- our very way of life depends on this. The fact that we do not like the way judges come down on an issue does not mean that the executive and legislative branches are duty-bound to openly defy the third branch. There are other venues to pursue change at the judicial level -- but we must remember that the power is not completely out of our hands unless we choose to ignore it. Legislators hold the power to impeach -- and we hold the job security of our legislators in our hands with our ballots.

Fixing the judicial branch, a branch of our government thoroughly poisoned by leftist activists, is going to be a deliberate and drawn-out process. We need to jolt our elected officials into action -- keep in mind that judges are still bound by the rules of impeachment. Legislators and executives still rely on our votes to keep their cushy jobs; it's time to hit them where it hurts. Only then will we start to see the modernization and humanization of the courts, and bring an end to the leftist stronghold that is the courtroom.

Go to newsmax now. They're saying that they may have enough votes to sign the Terri bill.

As they say, "Politics makes for strange bedfellows".
Today, Jesse Jackson is on the scene and pulling for Terri.
The Democrats cannot be too happy about this. Terri (bless her heart!) is causing an earthquake of a shake up in the political and religious world that has not been seen in years.
Believe me, this will not be over...even when she physically dies. This will result in a fresh look at life and death, updating our laws and, especially, the so-called "separation of powers". The fight has only begun.
I was playing with a child's "Jack-in-the-Box" today and found myself literally expecting Judge Greer to pop-up...even there. The guy is everywhere!!!! He "rules" over the President, Congress, the Governor....who else?

Thanks for your fine post -- now we will see if people can read and comprehend.

What is so sickening is that these same people were calling for Reno and Clinton's heads when they took Elian but now the shoe is on the other foot, it is okay!

Yep. Everyone should focus their energies into removing the activist judges both state and federal. Also working to change the laws so such a situation can't happen again.

At the very least, Governor Jeb Bush should respond to Michael Schiavo's explicit public invitation, by showing up unannounced with everyone and everything he needs to make a final and sudden decision on whether he should attempt to save Terri's life right now.

Well, Pat actually went out of his way to defend GWB in the 2004 campaign.

This is very interesting dispassionate, legalistic rigamarole. Many of the people you disagree with cut through the B.S., didn't care about state's rights, big government, all the other arguments and said, Thou shalt not kill.
Put all the theories of government in the garbage can, too much education can and does separate us from our morality.
They're killing a woman who wasn't dying.

That might become a national sport if Terry dies.

I can't explain it right now because it's still in its formative phase, but I have this idea that the public reaction to this case will be very different some months from now, when the public realizes how poorly the truth was reported. When the story isn't "taking someone off life support" but "this woman was starved to death", the DUmmies might not be laughing so hard as they are now.

Public opinion turns around and STAYS turned around on certain stories. This could be one of them.

That could be a real career killer.

Agreed. What is your opinion on the best solution as to judges blatantly ignoring laws passed by the legislative branch of government?
