Al Gore talks in Sweden about torturing people. Guess he's never heard of Terri Schiavo. Terri wouldn't have made it through 2003 if Gore were POTUS.
We would not be routinely torturing people," Gore said. "We would be a different country."
The Protection of Incapacitated Persons Act of 2005 was designed to give people under the same circumstances as Terri Schiavo, rights to the same federal judicial review as state convicted death row inmates which the Democrats have long stood in favor of. After Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert (R-IL 14thDist.) dropped the gavel shortly after 1:00pm EST Sunday opening the special session of the House then immediately recessing to continue work on negotiations, the Democrats came out within the hour denouncing the emergency session of Congress as horrific, shameful and abusive. Once again, the political left has thumbed its nose at legislation aimed at defending those who cannot defend themselves in favor of partisan politics. As I flipped through several news channels, all I saw was a broken record backwash of the democrats drumbeat on how bad this impending federal legislation was for the country. What I find even more annoying is that to solidify their left wing rhetoric, they make it look like mainstream America is simply shocked by this unprecedented show of intimidation by Congressional Republicans. Watching this pathetic bunch of pro-death losers rant on and on about protecting states rights made me so sick that I felt like throwing a sledge hammer through the video screen! Suffice it to say that its no wonder the Democrats were sent packing with the assistance of the MSM after this last election.
FV SAYS: This protection act is the one that Judge James Whittemore, Fed District Court in Tampa IGNORED when he refused to restore Terri's feeding tube and hydration. J. Whittemore should be arrested for defying congress and the POTUS. Tom Delay was right all along about the "little judges". But, look what little judges pulled off.
