Michael Schiavo's lawyer, Felos, just slammed Fr. Pavone of Priests for Life, for "speaking venom," among other accusations.
Rush likened him to the head of the heaven's gate cult and i can see why.
He sure is loving this facetime. I say give him as much time he needs..to hang himself.
I hope everyone that hears his chilling words and smooth style of speaking will become aware that we are seeing evil in it's 'human form'
Well, his tone of voice is like listening to a legal funeral director. No offense to funeral directors meant.
It was confusing to hear Felos say the piece of *&^#$ Schiavo had been living at the Hospice for the last 2 weeks, only to then say later that *(^& had stayed at the hospice for the last 2 days, especially overnight. Felos was there overnight, too.
Were I the parents and knew my child was this close to death, I would want to be close, so I am confused here.
The way Felos talked about Fr. Pavone as "that PRIEST" reminded me of "The Exorcist"...the demon-possessed child hurling epithets against the priest....chilling.
Did you listen to that Felos presser?
Dr. Cranford was the principal medical witness brought in by Schiavo and Felos to support their position that Terri was PVS. Judge Greer was obviously impressed by Cranfords résumé: Cranford travels throughout the country testifying in cases involving PVS and brain impairment. He is widely recognized by courts as an expert in these issues, and in some circles is considered the expert on PVS. His clinical judgment has carried the day in many cases, so it is relevant to examine the manner in which he arrived at his judgment in Terris case. But before that, one needs to know a little about Cranfords background and perspective: Dr. Ronald Cranford is one of the most outspoken advocates of the right to die movement and of physician-assisted suicide in the U.S. today.
In published articles, including a 1997 op-ed in the MinneapolisSt. Paul Star Tribune, he has advocated the starvation of Alzheimers patients. He has described PVS patients as indistinguishable from other forms of animal life. He has said that PVS patients and others with brain impairment lack personhood and should have no constitutional rights. Perusing the case literature and articles surrounding the right to die and PVS, one will see Dr. Cranfords name surface again and again. In almost every case, he is the one claiming PVS, and advocating the cessation of nutrition and hydration.
i was in the car and heard whatever rush played of it. that man is beyond belief. chilling.
Maybe out looking for a federal court that gives a damn.
They probably went orgasmic with the final breath.
I found the article Rush was talking about. Sorry, not up on how to do a hyper-link(?) but it is at http://www.canadafreepress.com/2005/cover033105.htm.
Anyone notice how Felos keeps flicking his tongue in his open mouth, right before he lies?
Yes, and it's beyond creepy.
In his book, Felos described an incident that occurred while he was engaged in a right-to-die case, very involved in the hospice movement and traveling by plane.Felos wrote that he "wonder[ed] what it would be like to die right now and indulged the thought by imagining the plane starting to lose it trajectory and descend.
So what happened?
The plane lost its trajectory and descended!
Creating chaos in the cabin as people began to realize the plane was going to crash, Felos wrote.
Needless to say, the juxtaposition of my imagined death and the possibility of a real demise heightened for me my different reactions. I assure you, my hubris in assuming that I would meet a life-ending crash with equanimity was not lost on me," Felos added.
As Felos told it, the pilot of the plane later told the passengers that an unexplained problem with the auto pilot caused the momentary descent.
And:
At that instant a clear, distinctly independent and slightly stern voice said to [him], Be careful what you think. You are more powerful than you realize. In quick succession [Felos] was startled, humbled and blessed by Gods admonishment.
For the story Rush talked about...all the spooky conflicts regarding Felos and the hospice...try http://www.canadafreepress.com/
It's obvious Felos is a sadist.
This is getting downright strange. Fox is reporting the Poe's condition has suddenly worsened. Shades of Adams/Jefferson?
This is straight from the pit. In scripture we're told that when we are weak, God can be strong within us. It is the doctrine of Satan to tempt people to be powerful in themselves.
I had been praying for God's mercy for this county, its courts, its judges, and its leaders. What was done to Terri was exactly how the Nazis started on their path, and we all know how that ended. Right now I honestly don't have it in my heart to pray for God's mercy for MS, "judge" Greer (or whatever he calls himself), the lawyers, the courts, or our leaders. Maybe it isn't kosher to pray for God's Judgment to fall - but my gut feeling right now is "no more prayers for mercy, just get out of the way and give God room."
It's mind-boggling. That this isn't widely publicized is criminal.
The doctor that Greer depended upon for a diagnosis of PVS is on the board of directors of "The Choice in Dying" society, formerly known as the Hemlock Society! Unbleepin' real!
