The killers of Martin Anderson are hiding behind the shield of the Dept. of Corrections. Jeb let the boss go but my, my, the killers get a pass? It was by their hands this young man's life was taken.

They suffocated Martin Anderson and watched him die in a most barbaric way. They didn't call for help right away. Was that in case he lived? Why call 9-11 if he lives because they would have gotten in bigger trouble if Martin had survived with brain damage.

The debate is on NBC tomorrow night. Check out WFLA Tampa Channel 8 to see if they have any coverage on line of the debate.

I don't know if Max Linn will be on the NBC guv debate or not. Max Linn knows more about Charlie Crist than anyone. He's also the only candidate who is against amnesty.

Do you know that if there's a settlement w/Martin's parents, Florida taxpayers will be paying for Martin's murder? We paid for Terri's murder too. and are paying for Mikey's death tour as he gets more time off from his supervisory position at the JAIL, then dem candidate for governor Jim Davis has missed in D.C. State sponsored murder is pricey.

It looks like Florida is going to skate cheap FV.

"On Oct. 18, 2006, U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle set a trial date of April 16, 2007. In the same ruling, the judge dismissed the civil-rights and conspiracy charges against the Department of Juvenile Justice and Bay County Sheriff's Office, and ruled that the entities would not be responsible for punitive damages."

The Terri Factor continues its effect with increased tempo. Today's news clusters around the position candidates took regarding Terri. (remembering killing an innocent is good, fighting to save an innocent is bad, in the eyes of the left.)

Here is the first sampling for today:

This isn't to say they have been a do-nothing Congress; that would be far too kind. After all, our legislators did manage to pass yet another pay raise for themselves this year - because it's important that their pay, but not the minimum wage, keep up with inflation. And they took quick, decisive action on the matter of Terry Schiavo. When they haven't been enriching themselves or distracting us with nonsense issues, they've been passing disgusting legislation like the Military Commissions Act, which guts the Geneva Conventions and all but legalizes torture. They've also been cutting student loans.

Democratic Congress should be top priority

The Terri Factor flavored with an oxymoron...

Warning! NYT source!

“I am a Republican and have traditionally voted that way,” Tony Schuler, an operations services manager at Microsoft with a Harvard M.B.A., said as he sat with his wife, Deanna, in their home above Lake Sammamish. But Mr. Schuler abhors what he sees as a new Republican habit of meddling in private affairs.

“The Schiavo case. Tapping people without a warrant. Whether or not people are gay,” he said. “Let people be free! It’s not government’s job to interfere with those things.”

>> It took me a week to get through the first 30 pages or so of Fighting for Dear Life by David Gibbs III, because it was that moving.

Yes... it was that moving. David Gibbs was a witness. One who cared. One who wasn't hustling to kill an inconvenient, disabled woman. One whose heart was not hardened to the truth. What he saw, and said, and documented, was: Terri was very much alive and responsive.

>> Besides being a moral conservative activist, I’m also a cop and supposed to be tough yet many times I had tears in my eyes. During the year or so that Terri was in the news, I was never quite sure if the media was telling us the whole truth and apparently not only were they not presenting the whole truth, they were actively engaged in hiding it, and in many cases, telling us outright lies.

We've heard the lies here, sir, every one of them, over and over and over. Mr. Gibbs's book will help the truth emerge and prevail.

The Terri Factor and more fretting about Santorum...

I have no doubt he believes what he says. Just as he believes homosexuality's akin to bestiality, Boston's liberalism caused pedophilia in the Catholic Church, Terry Schiavo was "executed," public education is "weird socialization," mothers of means shouldn't work outside the home, and the mainstream media lie about him.

There's a gathering storm all right. It's the one he brought upon himself.

The Terri Factor and health care, bis...

Over the past five years of the Bush presidency, Republican congressional majority and political ascendancy of the religious right, the term "values" has gained currency in our national lexicon. So-called social values issues such as gay marriage, "intelligent design" and the Terri Schiavo case have helped to determine close elections.

During this time, I have been dismayed, as an American and as a physician, that little sustained emphasis has been placed on a "value" issue worthy of our national focus: the lack of health-care access for all Americans.

A true values issue: health care for all

The Terri factor and liberal fantasies and courageous inaction...

Imagine...

WASHINGTON — Imagine you're Austin Democratic Rep. Lloyd Doggett back in 1994: eager, ambitious and, as history would have it, elected in a Republican groundswell year that would ensure you spent your first dozen years in Congress as a political underdog.

Snip...

In his 12 years in office, Doggett has earned a reputation as one of the most liberal Democrats in the House and a loyal supporter of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. In the 109th Congress, he voted with the party on almost every major issue, except for flag burning and federal jurisdiction over Terri Schiavo. He registered a "not voting" on both.

Doggett's power would rise with win by Democrats... After 12 years in the minority in the House, Austin rep has ideas for future.

So now Terri's murder is being used to peddle estate planning. {*sigh*}

At least this fellow isn't mean about it...

>> October 29, 2006 - Theresa was only 26 years old when she went into cardiac arrest. She fell down in the hallway of her apartment and was rushed to the hospital. She quickly lapsed into a coma, and then spent 15 years of her life in what doctors diagnosed as an irreversible persistent vegetative state.

Except that that almost never happens to healthy young women, and when it does, medical science is quite capable of finding the cause. In Terri's case, no natural cause was ever found. What they DID find was strong evidence of assault and positional asphyxia.

>> But if Terri Schiavo’s situation has taught us anything, it’s that planning for such events...

What did Laci Peterson's situation teach us, Mr. Valentine? Same thing, I guess. If you make out a living will of some sort, don't leave your estate to a cheating husband.

Oh, and since this is a publication for seniors -- stay the heck away from Florida. It has laws in please to give you an early exit and let the lawyers paw through your estate.

The Terri Factor and myths...

From a Ms. Einhorn of Berkeley??? Wonder if it is biased, LOL.

One might think the record of the Bush administration and Republican Congress -- from domestic spying to Terri Schiavo to a long and expensive war -- would explode the idea that the difference between liberals and conservatives has something to do with the power of government to intervene in our lives. Yet the stereotype of strong-government liberals and weak-government conservatives continues to shape American political debate, especially when the subject is taxes. The Republicans who substitute debt for tax revenue may actually be feeding rather than starving "the beast," but the idea that Americans have always distrusted this "beast" allows them to paint antigovernment rhetoric as an apple-pie invocation of the national tradition.

The Terri Factor and those TERRIfying Christians...

Sullivan and Danforth agree that the vote by the Republican majority in the U.S. House and Senate to overrule a state court in the Terri Schiavo case was the final straw in allowing the Christian conservatives to take over the GOP. To them, it signaled the final abandonment of the Republican Party's long-held principle of keeping government out of private family decisions.

Religious right has controlled Republican Party for far too long

For a change of pace, the Anti-Terri Factor, Mikey's death kiss...

This stuff is so hot, so exciting to the lefties it makes the newest issue of Newsweak with the classic Right to Die Kill:

Caution! Do not schiavo on the hustings or they will make you clean it up.

The issues dominating this election season remain Iraq, terrorism and various scandals, but the Schiavo matter may prove to be a sleeper issue. It has cropped up in contests across the country—from the Florida governor's race to close congressional campaigns in Connecticut, Pennsylvania and points west. Schiavo himself has helped stoke the debate by campaigning for candidates who backed his position on Terri's case and lambasting those who opposed him. Using funds raised by TerriPAC, a political committee he founded last year, he has also given 15 candidates a total of $20,000. All of it is aimed at driving home his message: "Government should not interfere with personal matters," says Schiavo, who still seethes at the memory of Congress's and President Bush's attempts to block removal of Terri's feeding tube.

The St. Pete Times chides this Democrat candidate's flip-flop on the Terri Schiavo issue. What it should do is marvel that Campbell flopped from morality to evil, from intelligent to stupid, and from truth to lies. Even Michael Schiavo managed to be offended when the guy came around to Michael's depraved point of view.

An amazing exhibition of Democrat behavior.

The Anti-Terri Factor again: Barf Alert!

Mikey knows a lot about souls gone missing...

He needs protection from us cwazy wacky Christians. Luckily he has allies like the Middle East uhhh insurgents.

.................

Pope and President opposed him, but after a 15-year battle Michael Schiavo was able to let his wife Terri die. Michael Shelden meets him

Tall and burly, Michael Schiavo isn't easily pushed around. But he is still reeling from his battle last year with the right-to-life movement in America, which fiercely opposed his legal efforts to remove the feeding tube from his brain-damaged wife, Terri.
