God gave us His answer along time ago.

So we should just give up and not try to save anybody's life? If God strikes you down, you should not try to get healthy and recover?

SHE WASN'T DYING!!!!!!!!!

[Revelation 911]

I kind of figured a warning was coming - its best to spit, preferably on the ground

violence is no answer - you and i know that

[conservativebabe]

>>I think that I'd lose my mind if someone prevented me from being with my baby while she was dying.<<

The cruelty is beyond words.

Glenn Beck: We have to change the textbooks. This is the day when the three branches of government are no longer coequal.

But who is hearing this, if they don't listen to talk radio or get on the conservative internet sites? This argument won't be in our conservative newspapers like The Pittsburgh Trib (my local conservative paper), which published the USA Today hit piece last week on the Schindler family's "main goal" as seeking Michael's settlement money.

"She may have been a martyr for pro-life causes, but I'm not sure SHE did anything remarkable."

The Bible says that God chooses the foolish or base things to confound the wise. Never underestimate who or what God may choose to accomplish His purposes. He sent His Son as a poor carpenter to eventually reign as King of Kings.

Rest in Peace Terri.

Prayers for her family. Prayers for this nation.

May God have mercy on us.

"If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themsleves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.".......II Chronicles 7: 14

Forgive us, O LORD, and heal our land!

[amom]

We can sure use hugs today.

How true. It's time for us to draw on that inner strength and hopefully find some peace and guidance.

Culture of Abortion, Euthanasia, Harvesting the Dead (Stem Cell Research).....Schaivo's case will haunt us for many years.

May the Judiciary pay dearly in this life or in the afterlife. But wait, they believe in Oblivion after death....they'll someday find out.

I'll live my life like there is no Oblivion. I'd rather not take the gamble.

I only hope is her rotten, hating husband rots in hell where he belongs.

[AZConcervative]

This man ceased to be her husband when he committed adultery, the only acceptptable reason in Christ's words for divorce. Read the case. This man, her "husband" denied her the treatment she deserved.

[Credo]

This tragedy highlights the President's efforts to reform the judiciary and our tort system. Unelected judges really think they can blow off the elected representatives of the people. It obviously needs to extend down into the state level. The way judges in Florida are picked probably needs reformation (I am one time resident of the state). Essentially judges at the appelate level and justices in Florida are picked by the Bar association.

I don't think a Federal judge has been impeached and removed from office since Alcee Hastings in the early 90's. He turned around and got himself elected to Congress from ...Florida. The legislative and executive branches must actually check the judicial branch and quit ceding power to them.

I would agree my initial rhetoric was over the top. The governor's race in Washington state was flat out stolen although the big prize was not. Real election reform is needed.

[conservativebabe]

OOOh, good point. Sure would be.

[colorcountry]

Plain talk from a Texan. Thank you!

[ArmyBratproud]

He had stopped them from going in there for quite some time.

It was only after publicity of him keeping here parents from visiting.....that he would allow them in.

(One thing that the news did right)

This game was played several times over the course of the years.


And the fact that he banned them...several times.....has been widely reported. So someone making statements about the case.....should be well aware of that...

[sandbar]

>>>I want to know if her parents were with her when she died. I keep imagining my daughter lying in that bed and not being able to hold her hand as she slipped away.>>>

No, Michael would not let them be in there with her when she died.

[LYSandra]

Prayers for Terri & her family and my heart breaks that POS wouldn't let them in the room while she departed. I hope he gets his and soon.

[Tarantulas]

what a crock. what second guessers and ignorance of the family itself. what lousy things to say at this time of deep grief.

It's nothing more than an opinion. There's no need for that kind of response.

[quack]

Well,the time has come.I have no words,even though I knew this would be the outcome.I can only think of a few verses from Matthew to describe this event.We can take comfort in knowing she is with our Lord and that he will comfort her family if they allow him to.

Matthew 25:34-46:

34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

35 For I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

42 For I was an hungered, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

[Schwaeky]

I hear the Imperial march playing now... the death of the Republic is offical now with Terri's death, and the Empire of Greer/Felos/death arising from the ashes...
