I watched the MSM the other night, and I think Michael is in for a rough ride. CNN, for example, was playing the vidiotapes of a respossive Terri, and mentioning, for the first time I'm aware, the contrary medical opinions in the case: no longer were they mouthing the "vegitative state" thing.

The big story for the MSM will be the results of the autopsy and any culpability of Michael in her wrongful demise...

I think the MSM smell blood. OJ and Jacko, move over.

pond scum?

Tell us, oh great one, what the President is going to say?

A. Sorry
B. We need to change this
C. Secret's out: the executive branch is impotent
D. It's a great time to be an estate lawyer.
E. Tax relief for families of people being starved to
death by the judicial branch of government

Get real. Bush was nowhere to be seen on this issue in the last week... I love our president, but he really screwed the pooch by staying in the shadows. He looks weak on his principles.

Flame away, it's just an opinion.

I know emotions are running high right now, but please people... Take a deep breath and look at this objectively.

We are a nation of laws. The laws were followed. Yes, we disagree with the outcome of the laws but the only way to fix that is to change the law.... but NOT by doing something that betrays our principles.

Chill out.

H E A V E N I S M Y H O M E .



BY WILLIAM BAXTER.



"Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven."




I HAVE no resting-place on earth,
On which to fix my love;
But, O, my heart is yearning for
The promised rest above.
'Tis true, this earth is passing fair,
O'er which I sadly roam;
But yet it hath no charms for me,
For heaven is my home.

A pilgrim long I've wandered here;
But, with a steadfast eye,
I see a rest reserved for me,
At God's right hand on high.
Then all the joys of earth in vain
Shall tempt my feet to roam,
To seek a dwelling-place below,
Since heaven is my home.

O, were this earth as fair as when
Primeval Eden smiled,
I would not by its glowing charms
To dwell here be beguiled;
But I would seek a brighter world,
Where God has bid me come:
Then seek no more to bind me here,
For heaven is my home.

Not flaming you, but the laws were not followed. Trial de novo did not occur, as was ordered by Congress, which has Constitutional authority to order this.

It only took you 3 posts to reveal yourself as pond scum.

It's likely I was supporting George W. Bush way before you ever heard of him. Which is something I did before he was elected gov of Texas. I've always been a big fan of his.

Like immigration, I wonder if he grasps the subject at hand. I give him a D- on this issue. A very important issue. One which cuts to the core of what this country is all about. And today, this country is about murder. Signed, sealed and delivered by the people we pay with our taxes. We fund the people who have brought death to this woman. For some people this is pretty personal.

Jeb Bush is toast politically.

Prayers for Terri's family. A year ago today my father passed away, one day after the decision was made to no longer take him to dialysis, so I am familiar with family decisions while in the midst of the dying process (0 kidney function, alzheimer's and a very weak heart). For weeks (while having dialysis every 3 days for 4 hours) he was experiencing the skin eruptions they said Terri would develope as her kidneys shut down, they were very uncomfortable for him. He missed one treatment before he passed.

The dying process is unique. Personally, Terri only began the dying process at the removal of her feeding tube. How can that be right?

Thank you, Blurblogger! I needed to hear/read those words from my favorite hymn today! Being a Lutheran, I guess it would have to be my favorite.

who used the Constitution as the law of the land, the same way we try to use the Bible

Ain't that one of the big debates on FR?

We didn't need a shootout. Just Congress and the Deptarment of Justice sending the National Guard in to enforce their order.

I never said I wanted him to emulate Bill Clinton. NO one despises the Clintons as much as I. I said I wanted him to lead.

Mr. President, there's nothing you can say to smooth over or whitewash that national disgrace that happened under your watch. Your public surrender to the liberal judges hard to watch, perhaps almost as repulsive as watching this innocent woman slowly starve to death while you did your best immitation of a Frenchman.

Law was created by man. Some things are more important than laws.

Praising the Schinder's grace in a difficult time. The strong have the duty to protect the weak. Presumption in favor of life.

I understand... but that all happened a little too late.

The best way to honor Terri's memory is to make sure it doesn't happen again. This requires logic and reasoning and patience... not knee-jerk reactionism.
