I thought about what you and No More Gore Anymore posted and I am of a different opinion. Granted it tabloid, however the NE breaks a lot of stories, I believe primarily becasue they pay for information. If you bring the National Enquirer a tip and it pans out they pay you for it (I am assuming this is true somewhere I think I read that) Tell me what other publication is doing anything other than the quick and easy coverage of sending out reporters to cover the vigil, or attending a court session?
Terri's case needs more than that and if they get interested and will do it isn't that what we have been saying neds to be done? We all want to know where the $$$ went and if the National Enquirer can find out, great. That will help get Michael bumped off as being her guardian. We we need to burrry him in his own garbage so that he will never hold his head up in court again. We all agree this needs "investigative" reporting and no one else is doing it so I would be more than happy to the NE put some feet on the street. Let them start asking questions. Terri and her family have nothing to hide, it is Michale and his side that should worry.
As far as the kids are concerned I would bet the National Enquirer will blur their faces. I would not turn my nose up at anybody who was willing to help in this just cause.
To me this is not a Democratic vs. Repblican or Liberal vs. Conservative or Abortion vs. Pro Life issue. It is soley about one woman, Terri, and her Right to Life. Honestly there are a lot of conservative issues I don't agree with at all, but that is not what this Topic is about.
This is about Terri and if the Nationl Enquirer will invetigate then that is a good thing. The only way it could ever be a bad thing is if she had soemthing to hide, and I don't beleive that to be the case do you?

Well, you can try to get the National Enquirer on the case. I was just saying that its lawyer is (was) a Clinton lawyer too. And the Clintoid FL woman, Janet Reno, has already emphatically demanded that Terri die.

I guess this is not purely a D-R fight here. "Republican" George W. Greer has twice ordered Terri to die of dehydration and starvation, and Democrat Janet Reno drove her pickup to St. Petersburg recently to demand Terri's death as well. So it is "bipartisan" conspiracy against Terri. Maybe the fear of the consequences will cause Greer to reverse himself, but nothing will reverse the mind of Janet Reno.

The National Enquire has broken some stories, however, like I said we don't need them. The Media is getting it, figureing out what we ahve been telling them.
I for one am not going to endorse putting the kids in the fray.
We don't need to know about the kids for this story to stand on it's merrits. The kids are innocent, they do not need to have their faces put on a grocery store tabloid.
We do not need to drag them into this fight. This is not a right to die case, it is a right to kill case. That has nothing to do with innocent children, no matter who the parents are.
The media already know about the kids, but they also know those children are not part of this story, and hurting children will neither make our case stronger or help Terri and her parents in their fight, or us in ours..
We are better than the NE smearing photos of helpless kids all over the place to stir up emotions.
