A Glance at Terri Schindler Schaivo

The death of Terri Schindler Schiavo is forever ear-marked in my memory as a time when I started listening to conservative talk radio. I was outraged that although Terri Schiavo was disabled she was FAR from being in a coma at the time of her dehydration/starvation/death. I studied the issue, and came up with the following paper and sent it to all of the talk show hosts I knew of. I was 14 years old. I realize that Terri was a financial burden in some ways, but when I read the book on her husbands involvement in her death, I was once again outraged that the family had specifically pleaded that THEY would cover all financial and physical burden. All the family asked was that Michael Schaivo divorce his wife and marry the woman who had become his fiance and given him two children after Terri's collapse. It is understandable that Michael did not want to divorce his wife because she had previously been awarded a large amount of money for her disablities that would become his at the time of her death.

Pulling the plug on a loved one is difficult - I am definitely not here to judge people who have been given no other option but to release a loved one from their suffering. But this case was desperately wrong, and I think even as a young girl, I realized this. Terri Schindler Schaivo was not just released from her life as she knew it here on earth. She was dehydrated and starved for 14 days to the point that her mouth was so dry and raw that she was denied even a drop of water to ease the pain. The following paper is not something I will not defend as perfect, but it still makes one think.

After all, it was Terri who once said the following statement. "Where there is life, there is hope."

I am only 14 years old, but “Injustice”, was one of the many words that came to my mind, as well as I’m sure to the minds of millions of other Americans, when I heard about the Terri Schiavo overruling. I say overruling, because everything good and right that should not have been forsaken was overruled, on her behalf.

“Someone ‘big’ MUST be stirred at this mess”, was my second thought as I humanly weighed the options for her life in my head. But, I had to conclude, that when I heard her flesh and blood were overruled…her governor was overruled…the president of her country was overruled…that someone twisted, and cold, and hurt was doing the overruling.

Who is this judge to take word over law? My third thought, was “What is this judges’ name, who is he a puppet of, and how can we get them out of our justice system?”.

Michael Schiavo is probably not the greatest of guys, and…sure…he’s made plenty of errors on his wife’s part. But, he’s not the real issue here! If it wasn’t him, it would have been someone else. Not everyone in our country is upset about the ruling. Our attention is being diverted with him, the governor…and anyone else bigger that people try to blame. But it’s not bigger that we need. It’s power. Our problem lies in the courts. People like Michael Schiavo are supposed to be stopped by our courts, because America is a land that upholds justice. Our country of Justice, and Wealth, and Freedom is turning into…a country that will soon be recognized as a country full of Injustice because of people lacking or wanting more Wealth and turning Freedom and rights into Pro- Choice not just for the babies…now we’re saying that mentally disabled people choose to die, elderly will choose to die…and basically the costly sick…soon they- like unborn babies- choose to die. Is it the babies, and the sick, and the mentally disabled that are choosing to die…or is it the murderer that chooses for them?

America has always prided itself on standing for what was right. We defend the Jews. We pray and ask God to bless our nation. We fight the terrorists. We’ve seen what is outwardly a pagan wrong, and often try to deal with it. President Bush is fighting a war. But it’s more than just with terrorists. It’s with his own people. It’s with the media who won’t support the right over wrong…the truth in EVERYTHING, over what they want people to hear. Adolf Hitler said, “If you tell a lie long enough and loud enough, and often enough, the people will believe it”. What is the voice of the people? Isn’t it the newspapers that people open every morning while they sip their coffee? How smart is it for terrorists to bomb a building and leave their tracks…or would it be far more intellectual a move to subtly take the people while the government is distracted by drugs, misdemeanors, sex charges, senseless murdering, and the injustice to a starving woman.

Which leads me to my fourth thought. “Isn’t this communist mentality the liberals are taking?”. I mean, if I were to get sick of taking care of my grandmother, could I kill her? The answer is yes…though not legally. I might cover it up…but eventually would be caught. If and when I were caught, I would be charged with murder and would have to serve the appropriate time in the slammer. Now, take these courts that are starving Terry Schiavo. How much are the liberal media’s being paid to help cover up this communist mentality? I mean- what if this senseless murdering of Terry is just a window to something a whole lot bigger? Didn’t David Rockefeller voice his praise of the controlled U.S. media for keeping their oath not to divulge the Globalist plans to the public? He said, “We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine, and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years.” He went on to explain, “It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government.” Accidentally found in the pocket of a spy that was shot in 1919, were the following Communist rules,

1) Corrupt the young, get them away from religion
2) Break down the old moral virtues
3) Encourage evil disorders…and a soft government attitude toward crime
4) Divide the people into hostile groups (race, religion, etc.)
5) Get the people’s minds off their government by focusing their attention on athletes, sex, etc.
Note: In 1896, there were 311 athletes participating in the Olympics. In 1996, there were 13,000.
6) Get control of the media
7) Destroy people’s faith in their religion
8) Cause the registration of all firearms…to eventually confiscate

Any of this sound familiar? Karl Marx, father of communism dedicated his book to Charles Darwin whom ‘he was a sincere admirer of’. Marx realized he could not justify the death of a human being, much less slavery of the black race during his time…unless the white man were to be taught that they were superior to other races. Thus, evolution was strongly advocated by Karl Marx who referred to evolution (creation without the supreme being, God) several times in his speeches. Stalin, too was a strong believer in evolution, after reading Charles Darwin’s book (using the original title) on ‘The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life.’ Charles Darwin was not only a racist, but he was a woman hater…yet his book is still today labeled one of the greatest scientific works in history. Evolution Science teaches we come from nothing. We became what we are now. Ever since the world came together, we’ve been getting bigger and better and stronger. Yet, several large skeletons have been hid by namely the evolution supporting ‘Smithsonian’, who discovered, and disposed of skeletons… 8, 9, 11 feet tall. I guess, they didn’t like the thought of everybody realizing, ‘hey were not becoming bigger and better. We’re getting smaller and dumber’. And dumber is right. Hitler, did not drag everyone’s granny’s and lame aunties, blind uncles, deaf cousins, and ‘unfavored races’ to the gas chambers all at once. He subtly introduced evolution to the children’s textbooks, teaching them that there WERE favored races. He is quoted, saying, “Let me control the textbooks, and I will control the state.”

Who is controlling our textbooks? Who is teaching America, that ‘scientifically’, we came from nothing, in stead of, ‘truthfully, we came from dust and the power of God’s imagination’. Who is telling our girl’s, that abortion is our babies’ choice, and that finances, careers, lifelong happiness, as pregnant young mother’s are told they won’t have with a baby, are worth more than a precious life. Hitler taught German’s that killing Jewish, noisy, expensive babies was like squashing a pesky bug, or drowning a barn cat. To him, he lived a life were there WERE favored races, and he intended to teach that the lesser races were nothing but dumb animals. Why else weren’t the enslaved blacks aloud to read? And HOW COME Charles Darwin’s book on evolution wasn’t questioned, contradicted or destroyed before this age and time? People, chose to believe a lie. A big one. And their still swallowing it today. Evolution, ties in with Communism…and someone subtle and more powerful than the president of our country, is within our courts, taking word over law. Someone is taking the power to save and preserve a human being’s life, and wrongly creating a terrible lie that the media is swallowing…that woman’s life is not useless. Are we going to get up off our knees when Terry Schiavo dies? Or are we going to root out the injustice that is filtrating into America’s just system. Someone is tampering with my country. I know I’m only 14 years old, but I realize that there’s something deeper here. We are scientifically labeling our unborn babies as lifeless blobs, and a tissue that doesn’t think or function. We are calling evolution a scientific fact, and it is being taught in our textbooks…in our schools. These are lies…that people want to, and choose to teach and believe.
Our generation is growing up humanist, racist, and if they get violent, communistically minded.

America, will not always be America if we keep getting looser and less conservative… and bending to the controlled media’s idea of ‘moderate’. Tell me. Who are these ‘communists’ in my country…who’s on their side or undecided on this issue… and how can I prevent my country from losing it’s God fearing, God loved, and God blessed sweetness and freedom that once had the world admiring America?

Sincerely,

Andi

A Greatness taken for Granted

Jim, one of my amazing Caesar salad and Grape Juice customers, has repeatedly been bringing me down articles on the horrors of Islamic terrorism, so that I might read with wide eyes during my hour of ultimate boredom. The subject will not evade me, it seems, because I just came from listening to a Rush Limbaugh segment and he was conducting an interview with some guy who wrote a book. I think it was 'Jackson' somebody who wrote some book about the dangers of Islam; dangers most people aren't aware of. That's not what's important, though. What's important is all of that made me start thinking about how people take for granted the greatness of this country.

I think there's a great parallel between the World Trade Centers and America. Alot of people want to argue that since there have been no more major terrorist attacks on American soil since 2001, there is no longer a danger. In fact, they say there is so little danger that our troops have no business interfering on Iraqi soil. All I have to do is mention the word 'war', and many of my customers will get raised eyebrows and go off on a tangent about this 'sorry excuse of a war'. My boss' son is a soldier stationed in Iraq right now, though, so many of those customers will curb their vehemency in her presence. My point here is not that those customer do not have a right to anger, or to their opinion. Absolutely not. I think it's awesome that I can hear people contradict with me and talk about differences of opinion. I think I'm like alot of people in wishing that there wasn't such a thing as war, but I am not so clueless as to think that America is a country that can just sit by and remain great. Even our founding fathers were not sure that America would last for a few years... much less forever.

While the World Trade Center bombing of '93 frightened people, nobody took it as a declaration of war. The Trade Centers stood firm and were repaired. They were considered un-destructable. Life went on. Then 9/11 2001 came and went... the World Trade Centers sank to it's knees... and it sent American's to their knees in prayer and sorrow. The core of American resolve was shaken and on their knees they were strengthend. What happened since then? How has simply seven years weakened our resolve to keep on the offensive to prevent equally devestating attacks against our great country? I think it says alot for President Bush and our troops that America hasn't had any more major attacks on her soil since 2001. When I told one of my customers that, she exploded, "What do you call the anthrax attack?" lol. That was reaching a bit, to compare 'the anthrax attack' to 'the 9/11 attack'.

America is the greatest country in the world. There's no doubt of that. But are we seriously naive enough to think that the war has NOT been helping prevent attacks on our soil? Are we honestly content with the Jimmy Carters' of America conducting 'peace treaties' with Hamas? Are 'we the people' so content with being separated into our political parties, that when a republican in office happens to declare war, we cannot support him all the way to victory because of his political PARTY? Terrorists ARE dangerous... Islam DOES teach violence... All I can do when I hear people whine about how ritarded it is for our troops to be sacrificing themselves for a 'lost cause' is bite my tongue until it bleeds. I just feel so strongly that America is not a 'great' country that will last 'forever' unless we, the people of America, continue to fight for that greatness.

What happened to the unsinkable Titanic? It sank. What happened to the undestructable World Trade Centers? It was destroyed. Great America has been amply warned. The warm security of ignorance is no longer ours. There IS a war, and we ARE winning it. Daily, terrorists (who are often defined in the main stream media as 'innocents') are killed. That's awesome. You know why? Because terrorists are TRAINED to KILL Americans! This is not just a 'war' to them... it is a way of living. We may retire from war, but until they (and their way of thinking)are no longer living, innocent people are in danger. One terrorist killed is quite possibly two Americans saved. I wish these people could be 'untrained' and spared... but where the security of Americans and war is involved... it is not something we have the authority to risk. We cannot just introduce a Bible and immediately retrain the way these terrorists think. They are programmed for death.

I have often heard people complain that the democracy we are implementing there is pointless, and America has NO right to interfere with their politics. WHAT politics? I don't really care about the democracy... that's just something that's supposed to help the citizens get back on their feet. That is the compassion of America in action. Our OBJECTIVE is to destroy Al Qaida and other terrorist regimes. Their main objective is to oppress their citizens and inspire Muslim Extremists to eliminate the real INNOCENTS of America. It makes me sick when I think of how many journalists cannot sit back from their political bias and just look at America as their country that they must defend at all costs.

We want to secure a safe, strong nation for this generation, and the generations to come, don't we? Absolutely. So let's stop pretending that our good name is going to keep us safe. It is our good men and women that are fighting for us even as I write these humble words that are keeping us safe. Greatness is a pursuit, not a fact.

Speak Out Or Be A Liberal

Conservative talk-show hosts such as Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity have long been a controversial statement in the pre-established dogma of the media, and the undecided voice of the people. Hannity, often referred to as ‘a great American’, and Limbaugh, presented to his radio-audience as ‘Nobel-Peace-prize nominee’, are both very confident in the issues they discuss. They don’t hesitate to speak out on America’s declining politics, morals, and culture. As a result, they have made many devout friends, as well as many out-spoken enemies.

With dynamic voices that spread a revival of American values, each speak out and lead democrats and republicans alike down that indiscernible path of our future. Limbaugh often gives the impression of being cocky because of his unwavering position on issues that seem to pin-prick democrats in the most sensitive of places. Hannity has on more than one occasion expressed his inescapable human limitations, but urges America to become great despite all of us having those same limitations.

Indeed, they have both found a great voice all over the face of the American map, and in their own way, they lead America toward a better future. Truly, one cannot listen to them long enough, determined to make idiots out of them, before determining that they themselves are the idiots. Persuasive speaking, and idealistic values are something that any democrat should fear, lest they should listen and be overcome.

When one is a big name, and a big voice, one cannot avoid inevitable criticism. The fact that Limbaugh and Hannity can receive criticism from both their greatest enemies, and their most starry-eyed fans, and still be the same persons and say what they believe, is something to be admired. I cannot agree with everything they do, and I do not necessarily like them. But the fact that they stand and say it anyway demands my respect.

The Glorious Mark Belling and tonight's Movie

Most annoying things people can say during a movie:

What happens next?
Does he die? He dies, doesn’t he.
I can’t look. Tell me what happens.
Go back, go back.
That’s not possible. That doesn’t make sense.
What? That’s the end? What the…

My family and I watched an enchanting Western film tonight called 3:10 to Yuma. It’s one of those new movies you see splashed against the windows of Blockbuster with the intention of making you curious. I’m going to ruin it for you. So don’t read this next sentence if you don’t want it ruined. Up, too late. The main good guy dies. The bad guy kills everybody and then goes on a train to get hanged. The son lies weeping over his father's good body. A lot o’ fascinating blood and gore. Hating me now, aren’t you? Eh, that’s okay. You should have watched it sooner.

Now to change the subject drastically. This next matter excites me greatly - even more than the convenient snow blustering outside! I called into Mark Belling’s show today! That’s right. THE most amazing conservative talk show voice. For those of you who know Belling, he chews out his callers whether they’re right or wrong. That makes him fascinating to listen to, but terrifying to talk to. The first time I tried to call in, my hand was shaking so bad, I had to put the phone down. The second, I chickened out last minute, and said, “Wrong Number.” On my third courageous effort, I was told my call was unnecessary, and I hung up the phone with a feeling of relief. It was the fourth attempt at calling in that proved to be my moment of glory. My heart gets excited just thinking about it. Belling was conducting a poll to see how many of his listeners were sick of hearing the rant and rave against McCain. “All right, I’ll take the first 20 callers. I don’t want any opinions. All I want is for the caller to say ’Keep ripping McCain, or shut up and leave him alone.” I was listening, of course, and a feeling of pride rose within me. This was something I could do. My hand rested on the smooth of the phone, and then I picked it up with flourish. The decision was made, and the redial button was punched many times. The screener was very nice. She even asked me what my name was. Kindly, she advised me to keep my radio off and wait my turn. Belling went from caller to caller so quickly I didn’t have time to be nervous. Then it was my turn. “Andrea, keep ripping or shut up?” he asked with zero emotion. I actually laughed, I was so nervous, and tried to make my voice sound important, “Keep ripping.” I hung up quickly, my fingers momentarily riddled with Parkinson’s. The deed was done. I ran into the living room where my family sat mute and admiring the 9 feet of snow, and crowed, “I JUST CALLED INTO MARK BELLING!” Then, of course, the radio got turned up to that glorious top notch, (because radio has that great delay thing) and my family heard my infamous voice. “Keep ripping.” The words echoed over and over again in my ears. I sat in a comfortable chair amid praise and admiration, and hoped I had said the right thing. I should have said, ‘Keep ripping, Mark!’, instead of just a dull ‘Keep ripping’. That would have made it more personal. He might have remembered me, then. But then again, I might have gotten all mixed up if I had too much to say. I might have said, “Keep Mark ripping.” Or “Mark Keep Ripping.” Or even worse, “ Ripping Keep Mark.” There - I’ve run out of variations. But how exciting to have a voice! I will speak more of this later, though. There is a bed hour around my home.

p.s. hint about my unflailing political position: GO ROMNEY!
