Will they drag Terri Schaivo in front of a senate commission?
I hope they dont put on a sick little dog & pony show.

Will they have a Pastor there to lay hands on her to relay the answers to the questions asked her?

I shudder to think of where this may go.

2. They'll drag her up there. And then I have no idea what they'll do.
But they'll do something. They always do something. :hi:

3. Perhaps they'll pipe in a voice over a speaker saying that its God.
And that "Terri must be kept alive and all dems and others who want her tubes removed are sinners...and GWB is my son..."
I can see a Monty Python skit in the making.

5. The Reich is now skilled at using the brain-dead ...

... just look at how they've propped up Chimperor Codpiece and made it appear as though he had half a brain. Terry Schiavo is merely additional practice for the puppeteers ... she'll be the 'Judy' to the pResidential 'Punch.'

"Terry Schiavo for President in 2008! Vote GOP!"

Congress to Call Schiavo as Witness


Fri Mar 18, 2005 01:08 PM ET

By Vicki Allen

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Shortly before a feeding tube was to be removed from a brain-damaged Florida woman, U.S. lawmakers on Friday called on Terri Schiavo to appear before congressional committees in an attempt to keep her alive.

House of Representatives leaders issued subpoenas for Schiavo while the Senate called her as a witness to congressional hearings to stave off the removal of her feeding tube, scheduled for 1 p.m.

Both the House and Senate also summoned her husband, Michael, who contends she would not have wanted to be kept alive in what court-appointed doctors describe as a persistent vegetative state.

"The Senate and the House remain dedicated to saving Terri Schiavo's life. While discussions over possible legislative remedies continue, the Senate and the House are taking action to keep her alive in the interim," said Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, a Tennessee Republican.

7. The MSM will LOVE this one.
Edited on Fri Mar-18-05 03:03 PM by in_cog_ni_to
We've gotten rid of Peterson and Blake...on to the new saga of the week. I can see it now. Helicopters flying over the hospital, 100 attorneys dramatically entering the hospital AFTER THEY SPEW THEIR RELIGIOUS CRAP BEFORE THE ADORING MSM, wheel Schiavo out on her bed, give the adoring MSM a glimpse of her lifeless body, more helicopters flying overhead with zoom cameras preparing to follow the plane to Washington DC and away they go BACK to DC filming the trip from the air....repeat bullshit Florida episode. :grr: Man, I HATE these people.
