Thank you for keeping us informed.

[mrobison]

What are they voting about?

[johnb838]

What sort of vote?

[davidosborne]

The Bill that Gov. Bush wants to PASS for Schiavo

[Centurion2000]

VOTE LIFE guys .... if not then all hell is gonna break loose.

This thing is starting to resemble the furor of Dred Scott.

[mrobison]

If it passes, how long until the feeding tube goes back in?

[PilloryHillary]

Thank you for posting!

[AmericaUnited]

Here's a link the an story that details how a top Florida Department of Law Enforcement agent was ordered to shut-down a criminal investigation in the Schiavo case!

The agent had determined there was probable cause that fraud, corruption, collusion was committed!!!! Medicaid/Medicare, abuse, etc.

Bernie McCabe, state attorney for Pinellas and Pasco County ordered all investigations shut down.

This info maybe why Bush and DCF is acting!

Here...

[proud American in Canada]

Pardon my ignorance on this, but how will this bill be different from "Terri's Law"?

[davidosborne]

Bill will go to House, then to Conference, Then to Gov. Bush... If it passes it will get to Gov. Bush by the end of the day...

VOTE EXPECTED TO BE VERY CLOSE.... Sources say it may fail by 1 or 2 votes

[Semper Paratus]

If they act will this keep the states rights democrats happy?

[PhiKapMom]

I am really getting nervous -- why don't they just VOTE?

[Future Useless Eater]

EITHER mister Bush could use their EXECUTIVE ORDER powers to STABILIZE her with an I-V for the few days it takes this matter of the feeding tube, and for the motions to allow FEEDING BY MOUTH to run the gammet thru the supreme court.

[mdittmar]

Gotta get their face time in while Terri lays dieing,VOTE ALREADY!!!

[davidosborne]

I have been watching the debate all day.. this is the closing statement.. a quorum is present.. the vote will take place as soon as Sen Webster Closes..

[PhiKapMom]

They picked up a black Senator's vote after he was not on the side of pro-Life. He made an impassioned plea and with all hope it will turn enough Senators. They also talked about people walking off and not voting which means instead of a vote they would need 1/2 a vote.

[mewzilla]

Someone on Hannity's show a while ago said that if Terri's supporters win this vote it would be in large part thanks to some Dem state senator who gave a very impassioned, wonderful speech. The senator has a wife who's a nurse apparently. I wish I could remember the pol's name. God bless him.

[PhiKapMom]

Thanks for the info! Then you heard the black Senator -- the guy on the radio said he on fire.

[glennaro]

Here we go ...

[bigdblogman]

[jacquej]

Bill is defeated...

[Future Useless Eater]

bump

[mike182d]

Bill is "nayed."

[sissyjane]

I can't get it to stay up, so would you please tell me what is happening?
Are they voting?

AARGH!!!!!

[jacquej]

Bill is defeated...

[mewzilla]

I think we're talking about the same guy. Do you recall his name?

[glennaro]

Voting underway. Failed! 18-21

[freepertoo]

Bill defeated!

[davidosborne]

18-21 DEFEATED....

[justshe]

"I am really getting nervous -- why don't they just VOTE?"

This is really testing our aging bladders, I agree! :-)

[PhiKapMom]

DCF is going to take custody if this vote fails is my understanding from the Governor's press conference.

[Halls]

My GOD!!!

[mewzilla]

Was it the same three?

[A Citizen Reporter]

"instead of a vote they would need 1/2 a vote"

What does that mean?

[Shermy]

"VOTE LIFE guys"

Not really. They're voting that a living will in writing must be required. IE, they're calling Husband a liar.

Permitted to kill if victim gives prior approval. Assisted suicide.

[Halls]

They better do it now!

[11th_VA]

Bill is defeated...

????

[mewzilla]

I wonder who got to at least two of them.

[Petronski]

Okay DCF, get in there!

[glennaro]

Well, at least now Jeb doesn't have to wait until the House debates, then a compromise bill presented.

JEB CAN NOW ACT!

[Saundra Duffy]

What's happening?

[Joanna Najfeld]

God have mercy.

[cherry]

she needs IV fluids at this point....TF can be replaced in a couple of days.....

geesh....why doesn't that everloving husband just divorce her and leave her be....

why does this adulterer that has shown absolutely no compassion or love for his bride have the right to kill her?

also.....this is purely murder.....you don't just arbitrately remove feedings just because you're tired of having someone around...after 15 yrs!!!!

[Ladysmith]

Exactly! And FAST!!
