Does anyone know if Michael can divorce her under Florida law? In some states you couldn't.

It takes a truly evil and depraved mind to insist on national TV that starvation and dehydration aren't starvation and dehydration.

Yes, he can divorce her. Unfortunately, she can't divorce him.

Of course he can. Why would he want to? He's got a sweet deal.

An uncanny resemblance.

I agree with you, in the Shiavo/Schindler case. As to withdrawing medical attention, I don't want Franco's death. There is a point at which medical attention is just prolonging agony. I don't think Terry is anywhere near there.

I have noticed a change in the MSM since the weekend. On Friday WBZ (1030 AM Boston) was characterizing this as a right to die case, saying her husband wanted to end her "ordeal". Today, they characterize it as a contraversial case, noting that the facts in the case are not clear. That's progress considering they still stand behind the Rathergate memos.

Sounds like a Columbo episode-we already know who did it.

Well, maybe Michael Schiavo is getting advice and script from self-declared Republican hater, Demoncrat Howard Dean:

Michael Schiavo said "U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, who is leading a charge to extend Terri Schiavo's life, is a "little slithering snake" pandering for votes."

"To make comments that Terri would want to live, how do they know?" Schiavo said of the members of Congress who want to keep his wife alive.

Well, HOW do we know what Schiavo says about what Terri wanted is the truth or a self-serving untruth?

My objection is Terri being executed by starvation which is a depravity worthy of Third Reich "euthanasia" merged with the infamous Soviet-induced famine.

I was shocked with his ' Chump Line ' today. In all the years I have listened to him this was the worst. For all of you who are unfamiliar with the Chump line, listeners call in and leave a message related to the days topics, Howie being a fat ass etc.
Today we had the pleasure of listening to people imitate Terri's voice in the recording. We also listened to people mocking her and the entire situation.

I live out of the area and never hear his radio show but his column is one of the best in American media. Carr spent 30 years covering City Hall and the State House and knows everyone's secrets. Well, they aren't secrets anymore after Howie published them.
He publishes the police account when politicians get stopped while driving drunk (Do you know who I am?) and what porn the dope-pushing rep had in his house. He combs the state payroll for relatives of pols and publishes that. He knows what state rep's brother got arrested for sex in a highway rest area (rhymes with fakes). Amazingly, he knows the inside politics in all the state's cities so he can tear them up in Springfield, Worcester, Lowell, New Bedford, etc.
I've never seen him insensitive to anyone who didn't deserve it. He was extremely insensitive to John F'n Kerry.
He nicknamed the Speaker of the House the "Corrupt Midget" and it stuck. Related state workers are "payroll patriots' who got their jobs through "the usual nationwide search."
He has great stock lines like, "When the phone didn't ring, I knew it was him."
Every newspaper in the United States should have a writer exposing political wrongdoing as Carr does.
I'll leave you with this beauty. After Ted "The Swimmer" Kennedy ran a boat filled with beer and young babes aground off Woods Hole, Carr wrote, "When Teddy Kennedy said he was going to start spending more time with the kids, he didn't necessarily mean his own."

Howie trolls here quite frequently and I like most ohters agree with him on most issues. He was wrong on Elian and he is wrong here too. He steadfastly refuses to entertain the possibility that the nurse is telling the truth with regards to the husbands treatment of Terri. Howie is usually skeptical of law enforcement and courts but here he believes law enforcement and the court examined the nurses claims and made judgments appropriately.

Hey Howie Carr, if your trolling here tonight, you are number than a rock. Get a life.

I usually agree with him as well and have heard him mention FR all the time. In fact, now that I think of it, it was Carrs mention of this site which got me interested in FR.
Do you recall years ago when he played the 911 tapes of the homosexual pol who was running for local office?
man, oh man - was that ever rich!
This idiot pol had a ' friend ' on the police department. One night, said idiot got drunk and called 911 demanding his ' friends ' phone number. He called 911 over and over again with lots of ' do you know who I am ' comments.
The operators were trying to reason with him saying ' Come on David, hang up and go to bed! '
On election day Howie played the tapes the entire show - priceless. The pol lost by I think 13 votes.
This same liberal pol tried to sexually assault a young man in a local movie theater. The whole story never came out and the kid was from out of town.
I've met Carr three times and he always seemed like a good guy. Very down to earth.

Howie mocked the sound of her voice too. Twisted and sick conduct on his part.
