6. What a surprise! I guess it's those damned "demon" judges again...

I'll give the religious right nutballs their props for persistence. Or, maybe it's just indicative of perseverative behavior (often associated with frontal lobe brain damage)?

11th Circuit Court Rejects Schiavo Appeal



Nearly 15 hours after agreeing to consider an emergency bid by Bob and Mary Schindler for a new hearing in their case, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected their request.

To be granted, the request would have needed the support of seven of the court's 12 judges. The court did not disclose the vote breakdown, but the order did say Judge William Pryor did not vote because he is recovering from surgery.

Three times last week, the court also ruled against the Schindlers.

In requesting the new hearing and a court order for their daughter's feeding tube to be reconnected, the Schindlers argued that a federal judge in Tampa should have considered the entire state court record and not whether previous Florida court rulings met legal muster under state law. The Schindlers' motion also said the Atlanta-based federal appellate court didn't consider whether there was enough "clear and convincing" evidence that Terri Schiavo would have chosen to die in her current condition.

11. Now its up to Jeb and W to save Terri. do they have the stones??

think not. they are both COWARDS to not act on their FAKE convictions. They can postpone an execution but cant postpone this???? the right wingnut loons are going to freak out. enjoy the show...:popcorn:

[underpants]

13. The fundies are CONVINCED that Jeb can just issue a decree

the campaign of myth and halftruths seems to have come full circle.

AS far as I have read Jeb has no say in this. I could be wrong.

[Guckert]

15. the great uninformed dont need to know the facts. that just makes it

confusing for their jello heads.

[merh]

18. The Air American news just reported that medical experts say

re-inserting the feeding tube will kill her now, her kidneys and other organs are shutting down and if she were "fed" again, her body could not handle the feeding and it would kill her.

No link, just heard it on the radio.

14. somewhere a lawyer is looking at yacht brochures

This Terri appeal thing is turning into a cottage industry.

I think some people are getting very rich off this.

16. I believe taken from the ruling

"Birch went on to scold President Bush and Congress for their attempts to intervene in the judicial process, by saying: "In resolving the Schiavo controversy, it is my judgment that, despite sincere and altruistic motivation, the legislative and executive branches of our government have acted in a manner demonstrably at odds with our Founding Fathers' blueprint for the governance of a free people - our Constitution.""
