I think they meant, no one knows if the Judge will decide for or against the Schindlers. Tom Delay was asked by a reporter yesterday, well, why would a Federal Judge rule differently from the State Judge. Delay answered that there was no way to know how they will rule. I think he started answering by saying, "We don't know". Sound familiar? But really, the bill is specific as to the case being de novo. And the leaders swore that the Judge will not negligently allow the subject to die while their case is underway. Exactly the same as an execution would not be allowed during a Habeas Corpus hearing in Federal court to determine if a convicted murderer should be put to death per a State court ruling.

Yes, Dear!

He needs to be put in a cell and let suffer the same fate he's put sweet Terri through.

And yes, he's a Republican. And even all the Republicans that are liberal are horrible!

But the party itself is for LIFE not death.

God bless you for all you do, florida voter.

your recollection is probably correct, tx; my brain has gone to mush...so much up and down. I've got a bit of a headache, right now, too.....and I'm sure that Terri's wishes that were all she had to deal with.

Yes, Lazzara is bad news indeed, but he won't be involved tonight in Terri's case.

They are going to send her case to federal judges in ATLANTA when the president signs the bill.

That's my understanding, from everything I've read so far.

You misunderstood what Delay meant by that. I assure you this is going to a Federal Judge PRONTO. And his decisions will decide the case, ultimately. I know what Delay meant. It was confusing, however, and was clarified very soon thereafter by Senators Rick Santorum and Mel Martinez. Sorry you gave up.

The mainstream press keeps telling them that the video they see of a lovely young woman is a mirage and that she is really brain dead. I guess we have to tell the other half who can't think for themselves, that this lovely young woman who lights up when her mother comes to visit, laughs at her fathers jokes, makes a face when her father's mustache tickles her, tries to speak to those who come to visit, is really alive.

Liberalism can make people blind to the truth of what's in front of them. I know one person who, when confronted with proof that the Killian memos could not have been printed in 1972, said maybe he keyed it into a computer file and it was recently reprinted. Technically conceivable, I guess, but I really can't imagine anyone punching a paper tape with a memo-to-file. Storing the document would seem so much easier, and a sheet of paper has got to be more compact and useful than a couple yards of paper tape (which I think holds about 10 characters per inch on a 1" wide tape).

Everyone including federal judges are on call tonight for 1 am or 2 am to get the tube put back in.

Wouldn't it be faster to put in an IV until she can be taken to a REAL hospital?

For another example of Liberal Mind Disease, check out the thread "We didn't know what Terri [Schiavo] wanted, but this is what we want..." [CNN interview]. If the pro-death people wanted to dismiss Michael's statement as an innocent slip of the tongue, that might have some plausibility, but the explanation they use instead is simply bizarre.

I got over it. I'm happy to see that it will not go back to Greer.

It is a roller coaster, though. My emotions seem to get in the way of rational thinking all too often when it comes to Terri. That's all I meant.

TERRI SCHIAVO IS UNDER THREAT OF DEATH (AS YOU KNOW THE GUILTY AND CONSPIRING PARTIES HAVE SURGICALLY REMOVED HER FEEDING PORT). SHE IS A CONGRESSIONAL WITNESS AND THE FEDERAL MARSHALLS NEED TO BE SENT IN TO PUT HER INTO PROTECTIVE CUSTODY. THE PINELLAS PARK POLICE ARE CORRUPT. TERRI NEEDS NUTRITION, HYDRATION AS WELL AS THERAPY AND REHABILITATION, ETC. HER VOICE HAS BEEN STIFLED ON PURPOSE SO THAT THE PEOPLE TRYING TO KILL HER CAN USE SUBSTITUTED WISHES. SHE WAS TRYING TO SAY THAT SHE WANTS TO LIVE JUST THE OTHER DAY! PLEASE GET THE FEDERAL MARSHALLS IN THERE. IF YOU HAVE TO RELAY THIS TO THE PROPER HOUSE OR SENATE REPRESENTATIVE OR ANY OTHER PROPER AUTHORITY THENPLEASE DO SO IMMEDIATELY. WHY CANNOT THE HOUSE CONVENE EARLIER THAN TOMORROW? TERRI NEEDS PROTECTION PRONTO! JUDGE GREER IS NOT A LEGAL JUDGE. HE HAS FLEECED THE ELDERLY AND DISABLED WITH ATTORNEY DEBORAH BUSHNELL. HE DOES NOT WANT TERRI TO LIVE. HE IS AGAINST HER LIVING WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE. YOU ALREADY KNOW THIS. HELP ME OUT, HELP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE OUT AND HELP TERRI OUT BY GETTING HER PROTECTION!!! I CAN BE REACHED ANY TIME AT THE NUMBER BELOW. I HAVE EVIDENCE OF CRIMES AGAINST TERRI FROM MY OWN GOVERNMENT CASE NUMBERS. DCF IS NOT INVESTIGATING. THEIR PINELLAS COUNTY DCF INVESTIGATOR I TALKED TO THE OTHER DAY IS NOT A COMPETANT OR A CARING INVESTIGATOR. FEDERAL JUDGE LAZARRA (THE DISTRICT JUDGE WHOM WILL BE REVIEWING TERRI’S CASE IS FRIENDLY WITH GEROGE FELOS AND DOES NOT LIKE THE SCHINDLERS) IS AGAINST TERRI LIVING TOO AND I HAVE PROOF OF IT FROM THE FEDERAL TRANSCRIPTS OF OCT. 10, 2003. THIS IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. I FAVOR AND HOPE YOU WILL ALSO SUPPORT THE INCAPACITATED PERSONS LEGAL PROTECTION ACT AS IT WILL PROTECT THOSE WHO ARE AT RISK OF BEING DEHYDRATED AND STARVED TO DEATH AGAINST THEIR WILL. THE FEDERAL LEVEL SHOULD BE THERE LIKE IT IS FOR THOSE ON DEATH ROW IN OFFERING THE EXTRA PROTECTION FROM ERROR ON ANY STATE LEVEL IN THE COURTS, ETC. AND CONSIDERATION OF ALL THE FACTS. IT WILL GIVE FEDERAL REVIEW OF CASES IN WHICH THERE IS NO ADVANCED MEDICAL DIRECTIVE AND IRREGULARITIES IN STATE COURT PROCEEDINGS. THIS ACT WOULD NOT ENCROACH UPON THE PRIVACY PROTECTIONS AMERICANS NOW ENJOY WITH REGARDS TO THEIR MEDICAL TREATMENT DECISIONS. IT ONLY ENSURES THAT THE INDIVIDUAL'S FEDERAL DUE PROCESS RIGHTS HAVE BEEN OBSERVED AND PROTECTED BY THE STATE COURTS.

The congress needs to be involved because this is a human rights, constitutional, criminal and corruption issue. De Novo federal review is needed although the Congress will be failing Terri to have federal review in a circuit court if it has to go to Tampa. Judge Lazarra is prejudiced against Terri schiavo living. In regards to Judge Greer he is not a legal judge, did not file a valid oath of office, and other paperwork in a timely fashion, etc., should not have been on the ballot and is involved with other attorney's in regards to fleecing the disabled and elderly. The attorney's and judge are in cahoots with the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast. Inc.

I did the research and michael schiavo is responsible for denying Terris voice and
substiting his own .. she has been denied rehab to speak. She is trying to say she
wants to live. They should teach her to say DIVORCE.

GREER BASED HIS RULING ON

1. HEARSAY! THAT IS INADMISSIBLE – against the law!

Not only that,

2. MICHAEL ONLY REMEMBERED THAT AFTER HE GOT THE MONEY!

3. fact is that GREER IS NOT LEGALLY IN OFFICE as a judge.

Unlawfulness, Not Emotion Key Issue in Schiavo Case

It’s important for America to understand that Congress must get involved in the Terri Schindler-Schiavo situation. Yes, this is an emotional case, and yes there are questions about the right to die, but at the heart of the issue are the mass violations of laws that have been broken to bring the case this far--as far as Washington.

1. The judge is not in office legally. He violated Florida Statutes by not qualifying for office and thus could not legally appear on the ballot and was not legally elected. Therefore, he has no legal jurisdiction in the Schiavo case or any other judicial matter.

2. The judge based his death ruling on inadmissible hearsay which is barred by Florida Statutes.

Michael Schiavo ONLY “remembered” what Terri supposedly said AFTER the malpractice money was given to him. money that was to be for her care and therapy which he then refused her. Instead, Judge Greer allowed Terri’s rehabilitation money to be used for Michael’ to pay lawyers to kill her by removing her feeding tube.

3. Judge Greer is acting in the statutorily prohibited and ethically prohibited dual role of judge and guardian

4. Judge Greer never seen his ward which is yet another violation of the Florida Statutes.

5. Judge Greer has denied Terri independent legal counsel, a violation of Florida Statutes and denial of the Due Process Clause and Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution.

6. Judge Greer has allowed Michael to unlawfully place Terri in a Hospice and engage in a Medicare and Medicaid fraud. She is not terminal and the "certification" presented was not done lawfully.


People must separate the emotion from the laws that were broken. Even if one is an advocate of the right to die, it must done within the confines of law –such was not the case here.

Someone's letter to Blumenauer:

Congressman Blumenauer,
It is hard to believe that you consider yourself a conservative Republican. Your efforts to thwart this most needed Bill are unbelievable!

Terri Schindler Schiavo deserves justice and due process. It is painfully obvious to anyone with even remote intelligence, that this case goes way beyond courruption and judicial tyranny! Terri is an innocent victim!

Before spending your time and energy on trying to allow this judicial homicide, educate yourself. If you want to play the role of legislator or lawmaker, then it would certainly behoove you to know the facts! They are all out there ~ public records, depositions, medical reports, bone scans and the like.

Terri Schindler Schiavo deserves a fair trial. The painfully obvious corruption in this case goes beyond imagination. Greer, Schiavo and Felos are the "Three Amigos" and someone needs to put a stop to the travesty and afford Terri the same kind of judicial process which we allow even the most severely convicted criminals.

PLEASE check the bone scan. PLEASE check the Hospice admitting papers. PLEASE read the countless depositions of doctors, nurses, friends and family who all tell a much different story than the court has allowed to be heard. PLEASE ask yourself WHAT IS GREER/SCHIAVO/FELOS AFRAID OF?

This is not "fulfilling a last wish" as Mr. Schiavo suddenly claimed. If that were the case, why did he go against that wish for so many years before suddenly remembering an alleged passing comment? If Mr. Schiavo is concerned with his promises to his "wife" (although I use that term loosely), what happened to that ever familiar one ~ "... in sickness and in health... til death they do part?" If Mr. Schiavo says it's just to do "as Terri wanted," ask yourself where having a live-in concubine who has mothered two of Schiavo's children over the last ten years fits into "Terri's Wishes."

This is just wrong. Blatantly and painfully wrong!

This is judicial tyranny. This is judicial homicide. This is judicial corruption at it's finest. Somebody better put a stop to Greer's freight train of injustice before he derails America!

Dead men don't tell lies.... BUT
Dead women CAN'T tell the truth!

Preserve Terri's Rights!

From Blogs for Terri http://www.blogsforterri.com/archives/2005/03/terri_groggy_an_1.php#moreTerri


Groggy and Unresponsive: High fever last night likely due to infection caused by improper removal of the feeding tube

According to a trusted source, Terri developed a high fever last night, most likely due to infection caused by improper removal of the feeding tube... she is groggy and unresponsive, and may not make it much longer.

So PLEASE GET THIS OUT ASAP...DIRECT CONGRESSIONAL REQUEST!!!!

Please if you have a fax machine take a moment and contact by fax the offices of Congressman Robert Wexler: 19th District of Florida - FAX 202 225-5974


and Earl Blumenauer - FAX 202 225-8941
Their voice mails are already full! These two are going to oppose the legislation today that will save Terri Schiavo. Please stress the following: (copy and paste if needed or write your own message)

This is NOT about interfering in states' rights. It is the job of the Federal Government to ensure that State Law is followed and that Terri Schiavo and others like her receive their right of due process, which to this point, has been denied. The federal amendment will ensure that Terri and other disabled people like her will receive a review of the procedures followed by state courts - a right everyone is entitled to, especially in matters of life and death.

Please stand up for the life of those who are unable to speak for themselves and pass the Incapacitated Persons' Legal Protection Act without delay. To allow Terri to die based on the hearsay testimony of a husband who has abandoned her, a lawyer who is a euthanasia advocate - and a judge who has allowed both state and federal law to be broken would be a gross travesty of justice. Judicial tyranny in this country must end!!

Most of all - please pray for Terri Schiavo.

"Pray for Terri. Something went wrong when they took out the feeding tube. She has a HIGH FEVER from a new infection. ARE WE WORKING OUR WAY TO FIRST DEGREE MURDER?????"

Call Jeb Bush and tell him that Terri needs to get to a hospital NOW!!

e-mail: jeb.bush@myflorida.com

Like i said. Hospice is not a surgical facility and the stomach hole was not closed to prevent leakage of septic digetive fluids into the body cavity. She will not die of starvation so they can say so....

+++

MS is trying to ban her family from the room now!!!!!
just heard that on Fox! - Michael is now in contempt of court (but Greer will do nothing) and he is also in contempt of Congreess.

+++

He is only able to petition the court to do this via an emergency hearing with Greer. He is in contempt of court and contempt of Congress.

The only thing that Greer has given them is "uninterupted visitation" and that was by court order, if Schiavo wants to suspend their visits he has to go to court. They should take their court order and go see their daughter, they do not have to obey anything Michael says.

Something went wrong when they took out the feeding tube from Terri Schiavo. She has a HIGH FEVER from a new infection. When Terri had minor infections previously, especially when she was first placed in a hospice, she was NOT given a simple antibiotic for the infection.

ARE WE WORKING OUR WAY TO FIRST DEGREE MURDER?????"

Action must be taken immediately to assure Terri's life. We must allow Terri her due process.

Now Michael Schiavo is not even allowing the comfort of her parents and siblings presence while she is being STARVED TO DEAETH!!! This is how much he "loves" his wife as he has stated as recently as 2 days ago?

There is only one human being who can really express her wishes regarding whether or not she wishes to continue being maintained with a feeding tube. That one human is TERRI SCHIAVO

herself, and she has that constitutional right to express her wishes. It is my understanding from people who have been in her room and actually experienced her level of alertness and capacity to respond that it would not be that difficult for her to learn to communicate even if it’s by a long eye blink or even a grunt.

What would it hurt to provide her that opportunity? Her estranged “husband” has had terribly conflicted interests all along from day one. He has said openly on TV that Terri really died 15 years ago. I think that is clear and convincing evidence of how little he has her interests in mind.To him, Terri is already dead. So why pull the feeding tube. Is it to get rid of certain “evidence” of abuse? I don’t know, but Terri DESERVES to have that become a known factor. Why is Michael Schiavo so determine for Terri to NOT have an autopsy and to be cremated immediately upon her death. What is he so panicked about?

The bottom line is that the real FACTS of this case need to become known and Terri is entitled to DUE PROCESS. She NEVER had her own atty or guardian ad litem. Who represented TERRI? It is not a Judge’s role to act both a Judge and simultaneously as the guardian ad litem.

What is Judge Greer’s own personal agenda? What might be HIS selective perceptions and biases? He’s a human being and human beings FILTER all information and stimuli that they are exposed to. Why is he so determined that Terri should die. Take a look at his background. Was he ever affiliated with the Hemlock Society? Are his leanings toward euthanasia as Felos is?

How much evidence did the courts of appeals get to see. Since Greer refused to admit so much evidence on behalf of Terri into the record, how can the courts of Appeal possibly render a fair and just verdict or order? They haven’t seen ALL POSSIBLE EVIDENCE!

I do not view Felos as really looking out for Michael’s best interests and he is representing him in name only. There was probably a contract retaining him. What Felos is REALLY representing is the “Right to Die” movement, the Euthanasia movement……a very slippery slope wouldn’t you say? A little too much like Hitler if you ask me.

It’s not a crime to become vulnerable, helpless, a victim of abuse, or a victim of illness.

Terri is certainly entitled to the same rights as serial killers but she’s not even getting what they get in terms of due process.

Please forgive me if I am rambling, but I am a Traumatic Brain Injury Survivor who was once in Terri’s position. But fortunately I had a loving Dad who made sure I got all the therapy I needed to recover. I am now leading a life filled with love, friendships, and I put a smile on dozens of people’s faces every time I leave my home.

EXCERPTS FROM CYNTHIA SHOOK MAY 8, 2001 DEPOSITION

Backround:
In late 1991, 1½ years after Terri's collapse, Michael Schiavo became
involved in an intimate relationship with Cindy Shook. The romance continued for approximately one year. It can be documented that the two spent a
weekend at the Don Caesar hotel in St. Petersburg Beach and they also
contacted a Century 21 Realtor on the premise of purchasing a home.

In May of 1992, at the apex of the romance, Schiavo had Terri's 2 pet cats euthanized to clear the way for his moving in with Cindy and her pet dog.

In the summer of 1992, Schiavo moved into his parent's home. We can
speculate with reasonable accuracy, it was at the instructions of his
attorney, since the living arrangement would be contrary to Schiavo's
"loving husband" image they were projecting for the upcoming November 1992 malpractice trial.

In April 2001, Cindy Shook (married name Brasher) was interviewed by an investigator working in Terri's behalf. Unwilling to come forward because of her immense fear of Schiavo, Cindy had to be subpoenaed and was then subsequently deposed on May 8, 2001 to try and learn more regarding her intimate knowledge of Michael Schiavo's character traits.

Excerpts; May 8, 2001 Deposition:

Cindy Shook describing Schiavo's possessiveness.

"he's very jealous. He stalked me at my.at where I worked after I stopped dating.when he would get mad at me he would tell me, I would rather be laying in bed in the nursing home with her than with you. I mean he can be the most incredibly mean person"

When asked if she were afraid that Michael would physically harm her or if he would harm children.

"I am concerned about retaliation because I have a child -I have children and a husband. I know him, I know what he told me I said he could be a very mean person."

She spoke of how Schiavo stalked her for close to a year after the breakup and that she received repeated phone calls.

"He came on the floor looking for me several times. I felt it was out of character for him to get a job as an orderly at the hospital That was concerning to me. When he would come up to the floor looking for her she was not scared the first time but later was scared.

In town I would look up when I was driving.not at my work- she would look up in the rear view mirror and there would be Michael Schiavo. I would look up and he would be behind me in traffic. It continued for several months after he didn't work at the hospital. She would change lanes, try to make a turn and he would do the same. He did this about ten times.

One time he was behind me in traffic he got next to me in a two-lane going the same way, and he changed lanes basically right on top of where I was at, and I had to swerve not to be hit. I had to swerve off the road. Michael ran me off the road. I considered it as stalking, dangerous and guessed potentially life threatening."

Cindy thought about getting a restraining order. She talked to an off duty police officer in her building

They discussed marriage. She said Schiavo asked what would you do if I asked you to marry me. He never discussed getting a divorce.

Cindy said Schiavo got angry when asked questions about Terri saying:

"this had destroyed his life and he was being robed of a normal life."

Regarding Terri's care, according to Cindy Shook, Michael Schiavo said "How the hell should I know we never spoke about this, my God I was only 25 years old. How the hell should I know? We were young. We never spoke of
this."

(Larry King Interview) GET THIS TO THE CONGESS, THE GOV, THE PRES!!



There is also an affidavit that was submitted to court
by an ex-girlfriend of Michael's - she said he told
her he had NO idea what Terri would want- they were so
young they had NEVER discussed it.
Her name was Cindy Shook- I think-
Judge Greer discounted the affidavit, but with what he
said in this interview- it seems to prove perjury to
me!!
Prayers for Terri,
Tammy

"The fact that Terri would die naturally would never demonstrate that the judge isn't guilty". Because the judge decided the death, the death of a woman well cared by her mother, a woman who wants to live and would have been able to give the life in the past, as in the future perhaps. We are talking about a woman, like the mothers who gave our lives, who fed us with their milk, the milk of life.

The death is wearing the coat on which has been written "natural".
But death is only death and nothing more. It is the fact of the absence of life. What really counts is not the nature of death, but all the means at our disposal to keep safe the live of Terri and what is done with.

She has been resisting during 15 years. What a proof of courage.
The Courage has been always admired all over the past. It is also a sign of the force of Life. Life is naturally strong because we are here today. But, the personal life is also so much fragil in front of the arbitrary power under its most various forms. So, our conscience is that we have to protect the life, moreover the life of Terri.

We saw the video images of Terri, her open eyes, her _expression.
This proof is enough to convince the entire world that Terri is living. We've got a sufficient heritage, transmitted by education, which allows us to know what has to be decided : nothing. Nothing more than to let Terri free with her mother, to let her drink, to let her eat, to let her being helped by the others, to let her free in the actual free society, like the others.

There isn't place for loosing time. Everybody has to be conscious of the occuring mistake, regarding the sense of life. The conscious mistake is our nightmare, and the risk would be it wasn't.

There's a principle : life is being nourished by the love of the others, and it respects the nature. All of us, we love life for Terri and we want her to be safe.

Sincerely,

Jacques Guijarro

The point being you can't give Terri a fair trial if she is deceased. So, what Judge would be that stupid and would want to go down as Hitler like Judge Greer has become known as?

So, who all is staying up tonight late to see what happens? I plan on staying up to see when the House passes this bill and see if Foxnews will be covering the signature of the Presidant, but not sure how much later I can stay up. I want to, but I've got 2 kids on Spring Break this week and they will want mmo to get up early tomorrow and fix breakfast, LOL! My Dh thinks I'm crazy when I told him I wanted to stay up and watch the news and sit here on FR to hear updates! I say we should all stay up late, kind of like election night!

Not so, Polly. Delay just said something confusing in a press conference yesterday, but I knew what he MEANT by it, thankfully. The man was so tired he might not have known his own name! And Santorum and Martinez clarified it later. Greer will not make the ultimate decision in this case, and Delay did not mean that he would. The whole thing was just jargon and mumbo jumbo that mixed up a lot of people. It is legalese and technican word games, hairsplitting and the rest. Ignore that and watch what really happens. Greer will no longer be the AUTHORITY involved in the case...a Federal Judge will be.
