The parents of Terri Schiavo/Schindler just made an impassioned appeal to Florida Governor Jeb Bush to save their dying daughter. Mrs. Schiavo was obviously tired and spoke in a restrained manner, but her husband, Robert, although looking terribly fatigued, used very strong language and placed much of the blame for his daughter's seven days of "torture" directly on Jeb Bush, blaming him for the inaction that is letting Terri be murdered by a "tyrannical" judiciary.
Mr.Schindler says that the Governor has the power to end their ordeal with a "stroke of the pen" and if he had courage he would do it.
Crazy old fart.
Amen!!!!!I have lost faith in all our leaders!!!!!Judges suck!!!!!!
I believe it and so does everyone else! If Jeb doesn't do something tonight it is over and he knows it! He does have the power! He has the sme power as Judge Greer! Greer can't do a thing to him! If Jeb does nothing tonight he is a coward!
Shame, shame on you.

Dang. The reporters are being cruel by having these folks on TV at this point in the game. They're in Hell.
The Schindler's went off their rails a week ago. They've surrounded themselves with equally reprehensible scumbags and punks. What did me in was when the father damned his daughter to Hell.
Demonizing Jeb Bush seems to be the strategy, now. Trash the one guy in Florida who has done his best to help.
Get a grip on reality. There's no need for you to be crual as well as obtuse.
"Eating their own" as it were.
Michael Schiavo beat them off the rails by 12 years, maybe fifteen.
What did me in was when the father damned his daughter to Hell.
Come again?
Huh?
Yeah, somebody needs to tell Randall Terry to stick a sock in it.
That is a bold face lie and it doesn't help Terry
Two nights ago, Chris Matthews played a clip of the Schindler's news conference, and the father said that when Terri dies, he hopes she ends up in Hell.
Dehydration unto death is torture.
Here is what the Holy Father, Pope John Paul II tells us about this:
"I should like particularly to underline how the administration of water and food, even when provided by artificial means, always represents a natural means of preserving life, not a medical act. Its use, furthermore, should be considered, in principle, ordinary and proportionate, and as such morally obligatory, insofar as and until it is seen to have attained its proper finality, which in the present case consists in providing nourishment to the patient and alleviation of suffering... Death by starvation or dehydration is, in fact, the only possible outcome as a result of their withdrawal. In this sense it ends up becoming, if done knowingly and willingly, true and proper euthanasia by omission. (8)
And that is not a fair comment either
They are trying to save the life of their daughter
And the Schindler's didn't accuse Jeb of torture
These people are emotional nitwits. No slander too egregious. No lie to big. No hatemongering beyond them. No law beyond shattering. Their end justifies ANY means. Goes for all of you including Rush
I refer to post #15. As sinkspur has said, these press conferences have become unseemly.
