The woman waiting for fries at McDonalds gets arrested in Clearwater by the food police Clwtr PD. Why isn’t that officer fired? There are still gestapo police actions in Clearwater. Arrested cuz the cop was gestapo. Granny is suing. Go, granny, go. This county will never learn. Meanwhile, the real criminals are running around...

Terri’s vision was BETTER than www.judgegeorgegreer.com. I bet she could see much better when she was alive, before Jeb’s autopsy. Jeb, Florida’s big coward. Jeb ran the aftermath too: appointing cultists to judge openings, running Bernie McCabe’s State Atty investigation and even going to Pope Benedict’s investiture representing the United States. He wasn’t representing me. The State killed Terri w/federal help.

Bishop Lynch refused to pray the Rosary for Terri. There’s little chance he’ll drop charges against a faithful Catholic with children. Lynch is tied to the scientologists via their legal counsel.

Jeb could have saved her. George W. could have saved her. But they did not care. Or maybe they secretly rooted for Mickey?

It's the Sembler family who are BFF with Bush 41, 43 and Jebbie. It was about the money. Jeb used to call Sembler's wife honey something and Sembler was nicknamed "Mr. GOP". Although it irks me that Semblers are for Romney, I am for Romney. He did meet with Bobby Schindler and I believe Romney is his own man because he helped Haleigh Poutre.

The Bushes are fundraising sellouts every time.

I am glad Romney helped Haleigh Poutre. He is far better than McCain who is creepy and nasty. I cannot understand why they say he is strong for defense - he is totally opposed to protecting our borders and providing perks to illegal aliens. No country can survive without protecting its borders.

Members of Georgetown’s Right to Life organization joined as many as 200,000 other pro-life activists on a march from the National Mall to the Supreme Court Tuesday as participatants in the March for Life, an annual protest held on the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision, the 1973 Supreme Court case that legalized abortion as a privacy issue.

From newborns being pushed in strollers to protesters involved since the original decision, all ages were in attendance, including small contingents of high school and college students. Many of the protestors carried signs depicting fetuses and infants.

Several high profile pro-life activists spoke at the March, including Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, Terry Schiavo’s brother Bobby Schiavo, George H.W. Bush—whose remarks were recorded earlier and broadcasted—and Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, who received the loudest applause.................

Hope you have the time of your pro-life

Brother Paul speaks with a special eloquence on the topic of Terri. Here he speaks on voting...

................................

Paul O'Donnell, a member of the Franciscan Order of Peace in St. Paul, Minn., said Catholics can't abandon their faith when they enter the voting booth and vote for pro-abortion candidates.

"Absolutely not," O'Donnell said. "If one is faithful to the teachings of the church, they are not allowed to support abortion - or encourage it." See Video

O'Donnell also works with the Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation and attended the March for Life with her brother, Bobby Schindler. As Cybercast News Service previously reported, Schiavo was the brain injured Florida woman who died after years at the center of a contentious right-to-life battle.

Schindler agreed with O'Donnell that voting for a pro-abortion candidate was not compatible with Catholic doctrine. See Video................

From the UPI almanac...

In 2005, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected an attempt by Florida Gov. Jeb Bush to prevent the husband of Terri Schiavo from removing her life support system. Lower court rulings said the severely brain-damaged woman was in a "persistent vegetative state."

On this date in history:

Here it comes!

...................................

Tonight's Republican presidential debate at Florida Atlantic University shows why the Legislature moved up the date of Florida's primary.

No other state votes on Tuesday. Florida will offer the most revealing campaign test yet: a big, diverse state, with Republicans voting for Republicans and Democrats for Democrats. The results will set up Feb. 5, when two dozen states will vote and the nominations could be all but decided. If the state still were voting on the first Tuesday in March, the state wouldn't matter to the candidates until fall. Now, Florida matters at a critical time.

With the Democratic candidates still shunning Florida, the four remaining Republicans - Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee, John McCain and Mitt Romney - have tonight's stage at FAU's Boca Raton campus and the national attention all to themselves. While the debate will touch on the familiar national issues - the economy, national security - all voters in this most important swing state will want to hear answers to questions that have a Florida angle. Among them:

Were Congress and President Bush correct to intervene in the Terri Schiavo case?

It takes a little paradigm shift, if not a village to fathom what a liberal means, and how a lib brain deciphers things like facts. I will give it a try on this lib sanctified by the LA Times.

Lib lady Patt Morrison (That's Pat with two T's) was outraged at the Terri event. I am to guess if she were outraged that a poor innocent was murdered, or if she were furious that anyone would deign to save her. I wind up choosing the latter.

I was taken aback at first thinking she was talking about libertarians as well, alas it was librarians...

Anger: It's not fair. How dare they? How can they practice retrograde isolationism abroad and rapacious cronyism at home? How can they dishonor 9/11 by exploiting the nation's fears to justify upending the Constitution and creating a metastasized secret government? Threatening librarians with prosecution? Arresting people wearing anti-Bush T-shirts, thus conflating protest with sedition? Sneaking and peeking on us without warrants -- at the same time they're wrapping the White House in impenetrable secrecy in the name of national security? I went to bed at night raging against the outrages -- Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo, Katrina, Blackwater, Terri Schiavo -- and woke to fresh ones with the morning's news...........

A national near-death experience... We're getting closer to the light -- the one at the end of the George Bush tunnel.

Here comes projection again. In this case as in haters calling people they hate haters, it is the brain dead calling people they hate brain dead.

As we celebrate the 35th Anniversary of Roe v. Wade and the granting of reproductive freedom for America's women, it worth acknowledging the sacrifices of those who have made this freedom possible.

Dr. Susan Wicklund, who managed an abortion clinic in Bozeman, Montana until 1998, has just released her book "This Common Secret: My Journey as an Abortion Doctor."

Wicklund tells about how she was forced to buy a .38 Special and a bulletproof vest to protect herself from anti-abortion protesters. Wicklund's daughter had to be driven to school in a police cruiser.

The morally significant time is the explosive brain development from 25-33 weeks, the period that the Supreme Court decided that the state does indeed have a right to defend the rights of the fetus.

There is a compelling moral and legal symmetry between the end of a person's life (the brain-dead Terri Schiavo, for example) and the significant brain activity that signals the beginning of a person's life in the third trimester............

COLUMBIA — Lana Jacobs, a prominent social services worker and peace activist, has left the local St. Francis Catholic Worker Community following questions about tens of thousands of dollars in missing donations from the organization she co-founded, according to members of the charity.

~Snip~

As a political activist, she protested in the form of civil disobedience by digging symbolic graves in front of MU’s ROTC building and crossing a police line to bring a bottle of water to Terry Schiavo, a dying woman who was taken off life support in Florida.

RU-486 or RU against it? It is a nasty, diabolical creation. Thread by wagglebee shows its effect.

Thirty-five years after the Supreme Court's landmark Roe v. Wade decision, a pill that has largely faded from the rancorous public debate over abortion has slowly and quietly begun to transform the experience of ending a pregnancy in the United States. The French abortion pill RU-486, on the market since 2000, has become an increasingly common alternative, making abortion less clinical and more private. At a time when the overall number of abortions has been steadily declining, RU-486-induced abortions have been rising by 22 percent a year and now account for 14 percent of the total -- and more than one in five early abortions performed by the ninth week of pregnancy. .......

Again on the topic of the liberal mind, a story appears in a thread by Utah Girl. Thanks, wagglebee, for the ping.

We see up close the monster behind the mask, the one we fight in various incarnations each day.

This is Alison Wonderland...

A recent essay by Alison Piepmeier of the College of Charleston provides some of the best examples of the cruelty, heartlessness, and utter self-absorption embodied in the modern feminist movement. Aptly titled, “Choosing Us,” the essay shows that, for feminists, abortion is a device to prevent one thing: Feminist inconvenience.

Alison begins her abortion story by informing her readers that her unwanted pregnancy began with an “ecstatic, hushed fling on the cold tiles of the bathroom floor a few weeks earlier” while her brother and his girlfriend were in the other room. She had used contraception, but the contraception had failed. After crying for a few hours, she confessed that she made up her mind to abort fairly quickly: “…unlike those after-school special girls, who always decide to either keep the baby or give it up for adoption, I wanted an abortion.”..............

BOSTON, January 22, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Attorneys with the Alliance Defense Fund filed a lawsuit in federal court Friday against a new Massachusetts law that creates a 35-foot "buffer" zone around abortion clinics. The law essentially eliminates free speech rights within the zone by restricting pro-life advocates from sharing their message with people entering the clinics.

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- The NCAA has adopted a new rule to help pregnant student athletes not have to choose between having an abortion or losing their scholarship or place on a team when they become pregnant. The new rule comes after exposes that students at Clemson University and University of Memphis had abortions rather than lose their sports standing..........

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Roe v. Wade celebrated its thirty-fifth anniversary on Tuesday, but prominent African-American leaders say the black community isn't ready to party. That's because abortion has affected black Americans in disproportionate numbers as more blacks have abortions and more abortion business are in historically black neighborhoods.
