We no longer have Heroes, we have Egg sucking spineless politicians and dictatorial tyrannical judges.

There are no Heroes in the Modern State says Marcuse. They have been replaced by sports figures.

I can tell where they are not, and that is in the police department that is guarding Terri Schiavo. I have heard of police departments getting the blue flu and staying in protest of better pay. Why would any P.O. agree to accept this assignment? I would think that he/she would rather stay home be part of this disgusting execution.

Political considerations have always led to markedly decreased testosterone levels. It's funny that when it came to decisive federal intervention Janet Reno had more cojones than anyone on the scene today.

There are plenty of real heroes left in our society. They are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, in our police and fire departments, and in our everyday lives. There are even some real heroes in the halls of power if you know where to look.

That ten year old boy who tried to bring her water. He is a hero.

The thing about America is that YOU are the hero.

I am the hero.

The fool down the block is the hero

10 year old Josh Heldreth is a true hero who is actually acting on his beliefs down in Florida getting arrested trying to take water into Terri Schiavo.

I do not think that dramatic gestures are the right thing to do in this circumstance. I don't have enough trust in the conflicting versions of the events surrounding Terri Schiavo to make a positive judgement about what the right thing to do is.

This article indicates that you think you do know what the right thing is, but you're waiting for someone else to pick up the cause and do something about it.

That's the wrong approach. Don't go looking for a hero. Be the hero.

There's a line from a movie that I really agree with.

"It's not hard to do the right thing, it's hard to know what the right thing is... but once you know what is right, it's hard not to do it." - Ben Kingsley in "The Confession"

personally I like the secret ops approach.....slide in under cover and spirit her away.......and a great film.....

Allow the guards to put down their weapons, no one gets hurt, we saw it with Elian....we have the people, just not the balls to call them.

If you want a hero in this case, fly down there and do something. Stop expecting everyone else to be your hero.

***Where Is Our Hero?***

He is risen.

And rejoice in that even through our tears she will bask in his light soon enough.

So this is a sad day in America, for John Wayne lives no more.....

W will do great things on the world stage, but he will not ride in on a white horse to save this woman.

Will the AG Gonzalas seize the body and investigate, or will this little click in Penellas Park: a Judge, a former sherrif and a killer, (who has been watching the evidence for 15 years making sure no one finds out what she could say) get away with murder.....
