The news of the hour is the book coming out from the Schindler family. Already a new thread has appeared in Breaking News. Here is just one of the many stories out today:

The book, due out March 28, has no bombshells but reveals the private agony of family members who were determined to stop Michael Schiavo from removing the feeding tube that kept his wife, Terri Schiavo, alive for 15 years.

"I felt I was living in a parallel world, where a different language -- legalese -- spoke a set of incomprehensible rules," Mary Schindler says in "A Life That Matters: The Legacy of Terri Schiavo -- A Lesson for Us All."

Family writes on Schiavo saga

And here is the thread, thanks pickyourpoison:

Re the book thread. It's nice to know that some threads can make it to the news/activism headings (instead of bloggers and personal) if they are posted by the "right" people. Good to know which FReepers the mods like and which ones they throw to the backroom.

www.judgegeorgegreer.com got The Ben Franklin Award today at the Suncoast Tiger Bay Club. He is doing standup comedy now and since the crowd was full of fellow human traffickers, they laughed every time he got to another punchline. Killing people is a hilarious, fun thing to do in Pinellas County. I couldn't believe the laughter. The death worshippers don't even hide their disrespect for human life.

Q & A: Judge Greer is lower than an idiot. Question: Why does our society treat animals better than people, i.e. The Humane Society. Greer Answer: "Because animals can't talk." Animals don't have "choice" so they are protected. That's what he said. This got uproarious laughter too. (we know that Terri had no choice, less protections than if she were an animal as described by Thug Greer.)

Gee, Judge Thug, after you ripped Terri's rehab monies off and cut off her speech therapy, she tried to talk but couldn't talk after years of neglect but she tried really hard to say "I want to live" right before the g-tube came out and the barbaric murder began. So, Terri was an animal or not an animal? Greer's thinking is so twisted and he loves having the crowd in his hand. HE thinks he's a comic. Greer couldn't have been inhumane to her if she would have been other than a human being.

Who's the animal? It's george greer and the sooner he's caged in a federal prison, the better.

The laughter was so wickedly inappropriate - no respect for human life. The death worshippers in the Suncoast Tiger Bay Club were entertained by their thug/hero/figurehead today. Greer, the twisted animal. I am lvg the GOP. I cannot stand to be in the same party as he's in. Time's up.

This was on www.baynews9.com today. Suncoast Tiger Bay Club may have a web site. Maybe we should send them some emails about their extremely poor choice for a speaker and the extreme bad taste of Greer's talk and Q & A.

He even bragged about going up to Boston, you know taking his "Death My Way is Really Funny Tour" on the road (my title).

IN CAPS, NOT SHOUTING, FOR EMPHASIS: SHOULD A MAN WHO DOES NOT RESPECT HUMAN BEINGS AT ALL BE A GUARDIANSHIP JUDGE??? He violated Judicial Canons today with his flippant speech and answers. He will get away with it because of his powerful friends. Next to Terri's murder, flippant speech a year later and picking up awards from special interest groups is nothing! There is no statute of limitations on murder. I can wait.

The four stories linked so far were all editorials written by AP (does that stand for "Always Propaganda"?). It would be nice to hear some other point of view -- human, for instance.

It really doesn't matter to me how "good" it is . I'll be buying it on principle.
