Did you see the thread where the WHINO challenged the Bush brothers to come visit his wife......I'd be careful about waving a red flag at them....This is the Pres who took on SH, who visited the troops on Thanksgiving, who appointed Ashcraft, WOlkowitz, Rice, Rummy and company....You don't challenge a bull like them....What do you suppose he'd do to Bush X 2 if they gave her water? Big man....with a Big problem.
Isn't it funny how people will scream bloody murder and "mysongyny" if you try to keep girls from having premarital sex, but the same people don't seem to care if a liberal maniac kills his wife.
He's far too smug. He can always inject her with something to make her unresponsive. There is suspicion already that he was injecting her with insulin to try and kill her without a trace.
RE: Terry Schiavo bone scan showing trauma:
"On May 6th, 1990, two months after the mysterious incident that left Terri Schindler Schiavo severely mentally disabled, Dr. Hamilton, an Orthopedic Surgeon, examined her. A year later Terri was demonstrating painful reactions to physical therapy treatment, so on March 5, 1991, the Mediplex therapist director ordered a bone scan.
This bone scan revealed a healed broken right femur bone and healed bone fractures in Terri Schindler Schiavo’s ribs, pelvis, spine and ankle.
Dr. W. Campbell Walker concluded that Terri has a history of trauma and presumed that the other multiple areas of abnormal activity also relate to previous trauma."
Why takes the money if he already has money. Further more if he did take the money public opinion and legal opinion might go against him because this would seem to prove that his motive was money all along.
Not only does her husband have money left over from the 1.3 million settlement (the current hospital is caring for Teri as a indigent case--he's not paying for it), but there is a high probability that like many families, the Schavio's bought "life" insurance.
Speaking of dangerous husbands...
Have you seen the photocopied image of Ms. Schiavo's bonescan document yet?
It can be viewed at below link,

Thanks for posting the link.
you're welcome, and thanks for pinging me.
This seems to refute that she is a "vegtable" and needs a feeding tube to eat.
This MD tried to testify for her and was ignored.(William M. Hammesfahr, M.D.) It is basically his final conclusion of Terri's condition. I have left out parts because it is lengthy but I think you can get the jest.
If any one tries to tell you this MD is a quack like I have seen on other threads..ask yourself why our state reps/mds voted yes. Are they all quacks too?
Impression:
The patient is not in coma.
She is alert and responsive to her environment.
She responds to specific people best.
She tries to please others by doing activities for which she gets verbal praise.
She responds negatively to poor tone of voice.
She responds to music.
She differentiates sounds from voices.
She differentiates specific people's voices from others.
She differentiates music from stray sound.
She attempts to verbalize.(!!!!!)
She has voluntary control over multiple extremities
She can swallow.(!!!!)
She is partially blind
She is probably aphasic and has a degree of receptive aphasia.
She can feel pain.
On this last point, it is interesting to observe that the records from Hospice show frequent medication administered for pain by staff.
With respect to specifics and specific recommendations in order to carry out the instructions of the Second District Court of Appeal:
From a neurological standpoint: The patient appears to be partially blind.
She needs a full opthamological (eye) evaluation and visual evoked potentials done to flash and checkerboard patters. The opthamological examination is to evaluate her retina and her ophthalmic nerve to try to determine the cause of her visual limitations and if any treatment exists. The evoked potentials looks at the nerve between the eye and the visual centers in the brain, to see if there is treatable damage and the type of damage, if any in these areas.
This is important, as for individuals to interact with her...
*snip*
Communication: She can communicate. She needs a Speech Therapist, Speech Pathologist, and a communications expert to evaluate how to best communicate with her and to allow her to communicate and for others to communicate with her.
Also, a treatment plan for how to develop better communication needs to be done.
*snip*
ENT: The patient can clearly swallow, and is able to swallow approximately 2 liters of water per day (the daily amount of saliva generated). Water is one of the most difficult things for people to swallow. It is unlikely that she currently needs the feeding tube.(!!!!!) She should be evaluated by an Ear Nose and Throat specialist, and have a new swallowing exam.
*snip*
Her physical exam and videotapes also suggest a spinal cord injury is also present, as she has much better control over he face, head, and neck, than over her arms and legs.
This reminds one of a person with a spinal cord injury who has good facial control, but poor use of arms and legs. It is possible that a correctable spinal abnormality such as a herniated disk may be found that could be treated and result in better neurological functioning. This should be looked for, as may be treatable.
Thus, there may be an injured disk or spinal cord; the disk injury is more treatable, the spinal cord injury, if present without a disk injury, may be more difficult to treat.
A person with a spinal cord injury and hypoxic encephalopathy will need different treatment and rehab recommendations than one who just has a hypoxic encephalopathic.
Interestingly, I have seen this pattern of mixed brain (cerebral) and spinal cord findings in a patient once before, a patient who was asphyxiated.

It would only be hearsay if a 3rd party who was not part of the original conversation said it.
This is witness testimony.
Obviously! You believe Michael's claim that Terri made a direct statement to him to be true, but when other witnesses submit affidavits regarding direct statements made to them, you call that hearsay.
The only difference is that the nurses have nothing to gain by making false statements that can't be proved. Michael does.
Are you sure that's not just hearsay? ;-)
You are making way too much sense for some.
;-)
Yep just hearsay.
BTW it was a minor who did the shooting, so we don't take those things seriously here do we (at least according to liberals)? If our court system is screwed up as this Terri story suggests, this kid isn't going to get justice anyway.
The National Enquirer is more reliable than the New York Times.
