3. I'm hoping it will make them act more crazy
and people will see these are the people who are trying to take control of our government.

Supreme Court Won't Hear Schiavo Case

1 minute ago


By HOPE YEN, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court on Thursday refused to order Terri Schiavo's feeding tube reinserted, rejecting a desperate appeal by her parents to keep their severely brain-damaged daughter alive.

The decision, announced in a terse one-page order, marked the end of a dramatic and disheartening four-day dash through the federal court system by Bob and Mary Schindler.

Justices did not explain their decision, which was at least the fifth time they have declined to get involved in the Schiavo case.

4. I don't see where Jeb & DeLay could think they have any options left
...but when has that ever stopped them before. DeLay's probably calling the courthouse riot goon squad together right now for a command performance at the hospice.

6. DeLay doesn't like to be smacked down.
This could get interesting.

7. Oh, but....
Rev. Mahoney is now on MSNBC railing against the Florida courts and imploring Jeb to move forward regardless. Judge Greer, according to Kerry Sanders, has ordered FLorida sheriffs to insure that there are no attempts to physically remove Terri or try to take custody of her. Sorry, no link. I'm listening in real time.

Who will stop the whackos now?

13. Thanks
You answered my question below. I heard about Greer's order on Morning Sedition.

BTW, if you haven't discovered that show yet, try it. I never listened before the two Marks replaced Randi one day, but it's awesome.

12. On Morning Sedition this morning
Lordy, but I'm getting to love Morning Sedition...

They said that some judge in Florida might station troopers at the hospice facility in order to prevent Jeb from sending over some state employees to save Terri.

Does anyone know more about that?

8. Supporters for Michael Schiavo
Edited on Thu Mar-24-05 10:54 AM by Terre
There WERE supporters of Michael (and the rest of us) at the hospice.

See the image (at time of this posting) on MSNBC's webpage:

Edited to add Question of the Day:
Do politicians really care or are they pushing their agenda?
