Also today, a Senator spoke in reference to that type of scenario. He said they are duty-bound to make laws that have to deal with people and the Constitution and how it affects us, individually. He then gave an example of another bill, in the works, that has to do with 2 reporters, in jail, because there's no federal protection as regards to their charges.....2 people they are making a bill for.

The senator who spoke is a lawyer; I can't remember his name. But he was very clear in explaining the Legislation's DUTY. He said, also, if they are "not allowed" to make laws, as concerns the citizenry, then their jobs are no job, "they might as well go home."

I noticed this morning, during the 10am segment, that the woman host shouted down a pro-Schiavo guest with lies about the money Mike Schiavo got having benn spent on her care, when I understand that most of it has gone on lawyers, and the taxpayers are paying for Terri's care.

so he has no more impetus to step in with force than his brother does...great.. because obviously saving a human life isn't enough of a motive..

please people don't revere someone just because they have an (R) after their names! Remember, Greer is a Republican and supposed christian too...

just because something is legal, doesn't make it right. If you see someone being murdered then you step in physically.

What an absurd statement.

morphine is SOP in dehydration cases...Cheryl Ford says it was part of the drug protocol the last time...I don't know how much they used, but it's used liberally in hospices to help ease dying people...

Waco was an bouse of power -- but not the same kind as your professor was suggesting. BATF agents had been shot and killed, so the Feds had full standing.

I guess cause I am scared that with this fever means infection and unless she is given antibiotics, which she won't, than she will die. Her husband is an animal who will not allow anything but pain meds given to Terri! As long as he is in control Terri will eventually die. I think what the bill passing in the senate and likely the house late tonight will mean Terri gets her feeding tube back, but is it to late because of the fever? I hope and pray I'm wrong! God I hope I'm wrong!

They are spreading, as gospel truth, all the lies promulgated by Michael Schaivo, George Felos, and George Greer....those whose credibility and motives are in question....those same folks who have criminal allegations made against each one of them, as pertains to Terri, and other matters, i.e., Medicare Fraud, Election Fraud, breaking Florida laws as pertains to the roles/duties of a Guardian, and more.

They are trying to make sure Terri is dead before the bill becomes law. MS is a horrible creature. I know he will be in trouble in eternity, but I want him and his cronies to pay for what they have done to Terri NOW!

it seems too coincidental that the congress seems LIKELY to
save Terri soon after midnight, and Michael cutting off ALL
Schindler visitors this afternoon.

It seems very likely that he will 'accidently'
over-medicate her today or tonight before congress can act. Can't DCF send an officer there to monitor everything?

"I won't watch FOX anymore as pertains to Terri. They are INTENTIONALLY spreading DISINFORMATION CONCERNING TERRI. They responded by snotty e-mail to corrections by FReepers about Terri's condition; they are taking as "truth" Greer's 'truth' about Terri.

They are NOT reporting NEWS about Terri. They are reporting LIES."

Right you are, nicmarlo. Right you are.

I stopped listening to their lies 2 years ago, although if I'm on my brother's house and he has Fox on, I'll watch and listen, but only to know what lies and misinformation it is spreading. It's good to know what the enemy is doing and saying. I now get the news from the Net, Conservative talk radio and from books.

The Dims may want a roll call vote at 12:01 AM this morning, which may take some time to get members back.

it's not absurd.. he does have the power to take terri into protective custody..and he hasn't.. you either make a move to save a life or you don't.. pretty freaking simple.. personally I'd trash my political career to save a life.. but that's just me.

Yes, it is; yes, it is. Anything Fox says anymore, I no longer believe. They're no better than the alphabet channels, I have learned. They're getting more like them as the months go by.

I'm sure he is not concerned about his political career. Anyone who knows the Bush family knows they are not political hacks or hogs.
How do you know what he has done or has not done? Are you there in his office? Do you have access to what he has done or hasn't done? Have you spoken to him on the phone? In person? Maybe you could inform the rest of us then.
