Bush: "We in government have a duty to protect the weak, disabled and vulnerable,"

The religous right anit no joke!, they have taken over the republican party.

Better comply...

Otherwise "Operation Terri Freedom " could be launched.

Does this mean we can kill all retards and cripples.

Does this means that you don't have to follow judges ruling

It's just a matter of time before Congress organizes the House Committee on Un-Christian Activities and begins holding hearings. It's obvious that Un-Christian activities are rampant in America and are undermining the US Government. How dare Theresa Schiavo assume that she has a right to die in any way she chooses and communicate those wishes to her husband, in contradiction of the Bible of the United States of America.

Vatican slams bid to let brain-damaged woman die



VATICAN CITY, March 21 (AFP) - The Roman Catholic Church on Monday condemned legal attempts in the United States to allow a brain-damaged woman to die after 15 years in a semi-vegetative state, saying that "The agony of Terri (Schiavo) is the agony of humanity."

More right wing religous fundie propaganda:

Ok that is creepy. Like tub girl creepy.

"We in government have a duty to protect the weak, disabled, and vulnerable."

I guess that means he's going to be bringing in universal health care.



Good thing Americans are smart enough to realize that this is all a desperate ploy by the right to create a wedge issue and take people's minds off of important things.

"by a lopsided 67 percent-19 percent, most think the elected officials trying to keep Schiavo alive are doing so more for political advantage than out of concern for her or for the principles involved."

I love it when Americans prove that they're not as stupid as TV tells them they are.

The Terri Schiavo Case
Schiavo tapes: snippets, then not much

A review of four hours of tape on public record shows a few powerful images suggesting Terri Schiavo can respond, but also hours where she has no signs of consciousness.

She seems to smile at her mother's voice. Her eyes follow a shiny balloon. Asked to open her eyes, she arches her eyebrows as far as they will go.

These and other fleeting images posted on the Internet have turned the heart-wrenching case of Terri Schiavo into a constitutional showdown.

But such moments that suggest awareness - culled from four hours of medical examinations that were videotaped in the summer of 2002 - are rare compared to the times when Schiavo lies in bed, slack-jawed and seemingly unresponsive, her limbs stiff, her eyes vacant, her hands curled in tight contractions.

The St. Petersburg Times reviewed all four hours of tapes, which now are public record in the Pinellas County Courthouse. Over and over, Robert and Mary Schindler beg their daughter to demonstrate any sign of consciousness. They have contended for more than a decade that she smiles and laughs in direct response to their conversation. They have told the court that her eyes follow them around the room.

These tests, these videos, offered a chance to show the judge firsthand.

"It's Mommy. Look this way," Mrs. Schindler urges at one point. "Can you say, "No, no, no' like you did before? No, no, no?"

"Terri, Terri, Terri. Can you look over here, sweetheart?"

Here and there, their daughter's glances and moans seem to coincide with what's being asked of her and might lead one to conclude that she responds. But more often than not, the parents' entreaties fall flat.

A judge who viewed all four hours concluded that Terri Schiavo exists in a hopeless vegetative state and ordered that her feeding tube be removed, as her husband requested. Appellate judges, who also saw all four hours, agreed.
