>>WPPFF?

Otherwise known as, "I'm glad these people have a thread, so I can know whom to ignore in the future."<<

Well done.

=== The end of the world as we know it

Well, they've been promising us a "New World Order" for some time now. I'm sure they know what they're doing.

Do you think Terri Schindler will make it into our report on Human Rights Abuses this year or we will continue to focus our efforts on those nations we believe need more "democratizing"?

The FL attorney general is part of the Greer organization! He is expected to seek the governorship in 2006.

"Here in Connecticut we have a convicted serial murderer (Michael Ross) sitting on Death Row who wants to die. Yet we have lawyers, judges and activists tripping over themselves trying to keep him alive."

-- caller on WTIC-AM radio (Hartford, CT) this morning

[Clorinox]

So you would ignore your significant others wishes regarding keeping them alive in a vegetative state just so your conscience would feel clean?

[NYCVirago]

This statement was taken from an article written about Felos in 2001. It appears that he's been planning to write a book about Terri for several years.

Thanks for the info. I guess the two of their souls have already been talking, right? Something tells me that those who are complaining about the idea of the Schindlers getting a book/movie deal won't say a peep about this.

[SilentServiceCPOWife]

If your wife/husband asked you to make sure they were not kept alive in a vegetative state hooked up for machinery to live for years on end would you honor their wishes even if you appeared to be a "bad guy"?

Wouldn't it be more accurate to ask if you would want your spouse to make a decision like that based on a throw-away, emotional remark that you made after a family member's funeral when you were 23 years old?

[Dr._Joseph_Warren]

May the Lord have mercy on Terri's soul.

May the Devil have his way with Michael's soul (if he has one).

[SoVaDPJ]

God bless Terri and the Schindlers. Terri's with God, and the Schindlers are finally free of the monster she married.

My question now is, "OK, what do we do next? And what can I do personally?"

Going to next Thursday's MFJ, but aside from that, what can I do next to stop the murder of the inconvenients?

[Clorinox]

"Because that generally doesn't mean, "Starve me to death." But, I see you're WPPFF and thus, goodbye for good."

If I ask not to be kept alive in a vegetative state, I would expect that yes, starving to death may be a possible outcome of my requst.

[Eurotwit]

I would hope that most people could agree with the general gist of those points.

[Budge]

Stuff a sock in your ill-informed mouth, 2RP!

[bert]

Terry Shiavo died.

[Darksheare]

Watchit newbie.

[processing please hold]

But, I see you're WPPFF and thus, goodbye for good.

Does that really stand for witness protection ....? What exactly is that please? How do you know if someone is in the wppff?

I am angry that the media is making all of us (who stood to have Terri's tube reinserted)...the media is making us out to be Christian zealots & Right-to-Life extremists. Because I did not want an otherwise healthy, but physically and mentally challenged woman to die by withholding food and drink from her, I am being called a radical Right-to-Lifer? My God, who really is on the opposing side?

Thanks for bringing this up. As part of this thread seems to be about casting blame it seems that this ought to mentioned (and then reiterited several hundred times):

For all the blame being cast on Jebb, we ought to step back a moment and recognize that if any are to blame as much as Mr. Shiavo and his usurpatious legal henchmen, THE MEDIA ARE TO BLAME. In covering Terri's plight, (on the whole of what I've seen) they have shown a most ugly bias, and an incredible indifference to seek readily available information. As a profession which should seek the truth of daily news, they show an utter disdain for it. THEY ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PUBLIC BEING MISINFORMED. Although they have done so many atime, it is truly contemptable in Terri's case. PIT OF VIPERS! WEAVERS OF LIES!

[Smartass]

Truly a black day in American history...
May God have mercy on Terri's soul.

THANKS FOR THE PING!

"Deed(s), Tim, speak louder than words."

And the lack of a good deed here SCREAMS out!

I am at the point in my life where I only trust the history of any man. When I do business with a new client,
I have a good friend who is a private investigator who checks them out back to the fetus. Why? Because almost all of the people out there these days are strictly out for themselves. Honor, integrity and just plain decency are being replaced with " do unto others, cause they'll do unto you". The GOP has become the party of big government, open borders, cheap labor, outsourcing etc.
I have no faith that the Republicans will stop the encroachment of renegade judges. We now own the House and Senate, yet we run it like cowards.....like the minority party. Where are our LEADERS? Reading the lastest poll results, and acting accordingly.

[Clorinox]

If I had my wish come true in this case, Michael would have divorced Terri and allowed her parents to take care of her, however my wish means nothing because our laws determine the spouse has the ultimate say over their spouses medical decisions should they be unable to speak for themselves. If you don't like the way the current law stands you should definitely fight for a change.
