This is a photo of Terri Schiavo and her mother Mary Schindler. Take a close look into Terri’s eyes and her entire face. Does she look to you to be in a vegetative state? I see love and adoration in her face and eyes.

Today at 1:00 PM EST…

This is a legitimate constitutional act of Congress to do this. And it’s time that people like you understand how our government’s supposed to work and stop trying to mis-characterize both what the Constitution says and what you interpret the Constitution to say. The idea that the judiciary has trump power over Congress, that the judiciary has the last word, that’s something that’s evolved, but it’s not constitutional because the judiciary is not elected, Congress is. They are the elected representatives of us, the people, and they certainly have the power to rein in the judiciary. It certainly would help if YOU were intellectually honest. First off, nobody has said that the federal courts have no role in our system of government Clearly, federal courts do. But here’s the difference: That role that federal courts have in our system does not include setting policy for the nation, which is what has unfortunately evolved. In particular, judges are not free to impose their personal policy preferences on the nation. They do it because nobody stops them. But they are not free to do it. Federal judges have a say on what the Constitution means, but they don’t have the only say for all purposes. There are other branches of government that have constitutional powers as well.

I guess “Sucker” the difference between reading and understanding are strange to you.

As far as whether it’s God’s will to let Terri live, Terri is already dead. She has no cognitive brain function; the only thing still working is her brain stem, which keeps her “alive” with less mental ability than a chimpanzee. The fact that the shell of her body still happens to be ticking doesn’t mean she’s alive. Michael contends that she didn’t want to be kept alive artificially (and let’s face it, you can’t discount his eyewitness testimony just because you don’t like the guy). Looks pretty cut and dried to me.

Before anyone jumps on the name-calling bandwagon, I’ve been a Christian my entire life, and I’m a diehard Republican. I just don’t understand why this case breaks down the way it does, with people adamantly insisting that Terri can’t have the one thing that she apparently wanted.

beware when you put your faith in man.

Our God is just and Terri’s death will be vindicated. I take comfort in this. Terri, however, will have no comfort until she finds peace in the arms of our Lord.

I’m livid.
