Terri's Case: The Roe v. Wade of Euthanasia

Terri's father says the courts are in control of this country


Now that the courts have ruled that a disabled person--Terri Schiavo--must die, who is the next disabled category to go? Those with Alzheimer's? Those with incurable cancer? Those who are paraplegic?

Remember, Terri committed no crime. She signed no will stating her desire to be starved to death. How her injury occurred remains a mystery. She was on no ventilator. She was not brain dead. Her parents offered to take her home and care for her at no expense to anyone other than themselves.

But her husband--the man who years ago abandoned her and moved in with another woman and had two children with that woman but refused to divorce Terri--said he wanted her dead. Strange, but he said nothing about Terri wanting to die until seven years into her disability. For the past 14 years he has denied Terri any therapy. Thirty allegations of abuse, neglect or exploitation were filed in court by the Florida Department of Children and Families. But the judges disregarded all that.

Instead, they said Terri must die. Not in a humane manner, but by starvation.



Liberals have been salivating over a case like Terri Schiavo's to use in pushing euthanasia. The promoters for activist liberal judges are poised for major gains.

How arrogant and powerful have activist judges become? Here is what Robert Schindler, Terri’s father, said about the judicial system that sentenced his daughter to a slow, agonizing death by starvation: "What I think you're seeing now is a display where the judicial system is…flexing their muscles. They're showing who's in command of this country. And we're not. The public is not, and the people you elect to Congress are not. The judges are. And woe to this country with those people in power. We've lost control."



The only body that can stop liberal activist judges from controlling this country is the U.S. Senate. In a few days the Senate will vote on ending the liberals' filibuster of conservative judges who see their sole responsibility to be that of interpreting the Constitution. What the liberals want are activist judges who will create laws they cannot get passed through Congress. The Constitution requires a simple majority of 51 votes. The liberals want to require 60 votes to end their filibuster.



TAKE ACTION NOW!
This will be the most important vote taken in this session of Congress. Tell your two U.S. Senators to vote to change the rule to a simple majority as the Constitution requires. If the Senate fails to do that, then a minority of 40 Senators and their cohorts on the bench can, and will, force their agenda on every American.

Some good Senators are sitting on the fence, waiting to hear from you.

"Schiavo smiled, raised her hands and made guttural sounds late Sunday while being visited by her father, Bob Schindler, and a friend, who was talking about how she liked to go out dancing, O'Donnell said."

braindamaged does not equal dead.

"A Time Magazine poll released on Sunday found a majority of Americans surveyed who called themselves born again Christians or evangelicals agreed with the decision to remove Schiavo's feeding tube. The poll was conducted March 22-24."

Who were these people that they polled? Just because someone cant feed themselves is no reason to let them starve to death. Born-again Christians? Right, what happened to "love each other deeply"? I am proud of those who were able to protest this disgusting act of murder her "husband" is being able to do legally thanks to the liberal judges,and congress's fear of getting involved. Whats next? Kill off everyone in nursing homes because they are not active members of society and their familys want to get the life insurance policies or the inheritance? What excuse will they use..."when they were twenty one they made a comment that they didn't want to get old"...oh so they would not want to live life like an old person so we are just doing what they wanted....kill them off( its not really murder to refuse to feed them or heal them or shelter them). To me it seems just like taking a newborn baby out of its mother and laying it outside..."well if that baby really wants to live it better get up and feed itself or ask to be sheltered...we cant assume that it really wants to live".

I keep hoping to be inspired to write something of intrest....nope
