New info (to me, and I suspect others:

"WorldNetDaily has reported that in the first couple of years after her collapse Terri received rehabilitative therapy and progressed to the point of saying "no," according to nurses' notes. She would also say, "yes" and "stop that," according to her parents."

Does anyone still doubt that this is about a husband legally offing his wife?

No- the media is not "getting it wrong"-- they are reporting exactly what they want to report.

As we see so often in the post-modern world, the left learned the lesson well that those who control the LANGUAGE will be in control. To control the meaning of words is to control people.

They know full well that "comatose" and "vegatative" do not describe Terri. But words have meaning and words have power.

"Some doctors have offered pro-bono treatment for her, which her husband declines."

How about some lawyers offering pro-bono services for Terri's divorce from this POS! And why isn't some DA prosecuting the A-hole for bigamy?

Yes. Quite amazing, how "new information" keeps getting generated, ...er... I mean, discovered.

True.

However when it comes to a fellow godless person like Christopher Reeves, we're supposed to destroy baby embryos and hope that can make him better. Or fellow atheist Stephen Hawkins - do WHATEVER is necessary for him to keep sputing his godless nonsense. Do I see a double standard? ;)

I have a living will and I find this situation of Terri Schiavo really frightening. I thought that I would not want extra ordinarly measures to prolong my life, but now, I do. I want to be allowed to stay plugged in. More than anything, I would fear some fools that might think that I did not want food or water. This is about the scariest thing that I have ever heard of. Oh, yes, leave me plugged in, for I would never want to be starved to death!

Some doctors have offered pro-bono treatment for her, which her husband declines.

----------------------

To prohibit treatment at no expense by qualified specialists is repugnant to reason. Bush must get off his ass and appoint a team from those volunteers to be in charge of her treatment.

I heard something on this the other night which might be old news to those who have followed the story more closely than I have, but it was most interesting - Dr. Michael Baden, the forensic pathologist, was on Grete Van Sustern's show and said essentially that the idea that this woman had had a heart attack which left her in a vegetative state, the apparently accepted story, at her young age was far-fetched. He further said that he had seen bone scans of her and that it looked to him that she had suffered some kind of head trauma which more likely resulted in where she is today. He seemed to be implying that this trauma likely came from an accident or some sort of abuse (perhaps at her husband's hands?), but didn't come right out and make any accusations. Perhaps he's been doing too many autopsies for HBO, but it seemed like information which should be investigated more fully......

Will WND or any Schindlre representative make sure that ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC and NPR and the rest get the 'correct' info'?

The media coverage IS getting people's attention. This morning, just a few minutes ago, CNN gave the results of one of their polls. The poll was "stories americans are most interested in" and Terri Schiavo topped the list at 39%. There were 5 stories listed in all and hers took top place. Now, if the media will get this right the tides can be turned resulting in a mass public outcry.

What "Doctor" did that blind liberal dingbat Greer appoint, Dr. Kervorkian?

The Judge is a moron, he is blind and can't see what is in front of his face.

The woman must not be starved to death.

WorldNetDaily has reported that in the first couple of years after her collapse Terri received rehabilitative therapy and progressed to the point of saying "no," according to nurses' notes. She would also say, "yes" and "stop that," according to her parents. But in 1993, following the malpractice-suit awards, the therapy was discontinued and Terri was relocated by her husband to one nursing home and then another before ultimately being moved to a hospice in 2000 where she remains.

Where is the record of when this information was entered into testimony at the trial? If it wasn't entered into testimony then why not? This would have been critical information that would certainly swayed the Judge in the parents favor.

Do you have a reputable source for this information or is this just WorldNetDaily hype to sucker the sheeples?

At a press conference Thursday Felos insisted his client was acting out of love and respect for his wife's desire to "die with dignity."

BOVINE FECES!!! He's acting in self defence for the Criminal Strangulation that he performed upon Terri, thus causing her body to fail to deliver oxygen to her brain !!!

"Who in God's name would subject themselves to what he has gone through for any other reason?" he said. "He always deeply loved her."

Answer: An evil creature attempting to obliterate the evidence of his Criminal Strangulation activities !!!
