Jeb Bush has FAILED and will be judged by history as a coward. It is said the hottest places in hell arent for the wicked, but for the good men who stand by neutral while the wicked unleash. Jeb Bush, who has done more for Terri Schiavo than any other elected official, is going to hell for it!
More wackiness.

And Aussie is not by their self.
I got really upset with Sean Hannity when he said that FR has been taken over by the kooks, not I am having my doubts, but what he might have been right.

Excuses, excuses, excuses. You're not serious about anything unless you are willing to find a way to accomplish your goals by actively participating in the effort. You may not be able to help Terri Schiavo, but you might be able to stop this from happening again. Job or not,as long as you are typing you are an arm chair activist. Nothing more, nothing less.
I didn't say quit your job. I said use your vacation time to personally question Gov. Bush., and calling him names to his face certainly won't help. It will just show to the public what a small person you are. People without ideas resort to name calling.

I do not think Aussie is a kook. It's just an emotional thing.

I wonder about a violation of civil rights? Could the Justice Department use the US Marshall's Service. Same as they did for integration in the 1960's.

It is a very emotional issue, but that is not a reason to loose all logical reasoning.
I am as mad as can be about MS and the courts, but I see no reason to eat our own when they have gone above and beyond trying to save Terri>

"Sure thing pal, I'll just quit my job now and then watch as my family starves not from a judge order but due to lack of income. Fact is, I'm in NO position to help Schiavo and anything I do would be symbolic."
I think Governor Bush is doing the right thing by observing the law, even though he disagrees with the judge's interpretation. I think the judge in this case is correct. So going to Florida is not an issue for me. However I believe Lecie was not saying you should quit your job. Lecie was saying that those with strong convictions that evil is being done should sacrifice vacation time and money to protest Governor Bush's stance. The symbolic value of such a protest is the whole point. It can jog the consciences of those like the governor who do have the power to act.
I have used vacation time to travel to different cities and hold my signs, in the faint hope that large numbers of people in vigils and marches and protests would make people think. It helps those who are taking unpopular stands to know that they have support.
It would be wrong to compromise your family's well-being for that of another family, but if the sacrifice is limited to vacation, I think Lecie has a point.

Without the willingness to do that we effectively live in a judicial thugocracy. Yes it has, and the Thug has his own armed Mafia now, in Clearwater.
Jeb and George W. Bush should treat this as an armed insurrection.
To: Lecie
-It's easy being an arm chair activist with a key board. It's a damn site harder to get off your butt and call an honorable man a coward to his face.-
If it was your offspring instead of Terri, wouldn't you be calling for the National Guard at the very least?
When there's extraordinary circumstances, don't you need an extraordinary solution? If not, then what?
To: AmericanChef
This is an armed insurrection. The judge has no authority to commandeer police against the governor. If the governor disobeys the judge, he has to answer to the LEGISLATURE! Not to the judge! Not to any court!
To: Dan93
Jeb brought this on himself by getting up and announcing that DCF had statutory authority to take custody, and then doing...nothing.
He should have just kept his mouth shut if he wasn't going to act.

George Greer is Governor of Florida today, don't ya know.It's more like Most Powerful KING of the "Southern Sector" in the "Judicial States of America".
You better bow to King Judge Greer NOW before he removes all food and water from you too.

To: verity
the Governor has demonstrated extraordinary courage in distinguishing between his personal feelings and his oath of office. Keyes, on the other hand, has demonstrated that he is unqualified for public office. Well said! You are absolutely right!

Au contraire, the Governor has demonstrated extraordinary courage in distinguishing between his personal feelings and his oath of office. Keyes, on the other hand, has demonstrated that he is unqualified for public office.Keyes is qualified to lose elections.

Yes, I know. Pity about Jeb being so gutless!Jeb is a wimp, he can not even keep his own daughters in line, lets hope he will never be elected President, we'll have a copy of J. Carter in WH.

Im not sure if Im on DU or FR anymore:(Actually, you are on the DU section of FR. It happens every time there is something controversial. They come over here masquarading as religious conservatives and spew all this crap trying to make conservatives look bad. You can always spot them, they are the absolute characture of what they think religous conservatives are.
To: McGavin999
"....caricature of what they think religious conservatives are."
What you are attempting to write (I believe) is that we are the absolute caracture of what we think religious conservatives are. But then again, some of us just are religious conservatives, Mr. McGavin.
To: SolomoninSouthDakota
Sorry that didn't make sense. Somehow the word corrector didn't correct MY misspelling. In any event the word is "caricature".

Alan Keyes is laying the groundwork for these folks to put the knife right in the back of the President, Jeb Bush, and the Republican Party.
I'd place money on it.
