Keeping with the tone of the Schindlers' efforts, we remember Haleigh Poutre, now emerging from jeopardy, Scott Thomas, still in danger and may we all remember in prayers the fate of Jimmy Chambers and his family who fought valiantly, and others I have not named but will not be forgotten.

Haleigh Poutre's plight has attracted much needed attention. Thanks to Wendy Murphy, Michelle Malkin, and unsung others who kept this poor kid in the limelight so she couldn't be sacrificed at the altar of evil.

Of all the questions Gov. Mitt Romney’s panel on the Haleigh Poutre child abuse case raises, among the most disturbing is this: Why are so many children dying in Western Massachusetts?

In three of the past five years, Western Massachusetts led the state in child fatalities. And although the report the panel released last week offers no definitive answer, it points to deficiencies in the child-welfare system that could be contributing factors.

Panel: Western Mass. sees more kid deaths

Talk about acrimony. I don't think some of those posters like anyone.

Thank you. Didn't hear a word of it. Maybe I was on vacation.

This Terri Schiavo murder being still a COLD CASE FILE from the beginning, with the popularity of such topics these days, it is ideal opportunity for some courageous investigators. They could lay out the most incredible Cold Case anyone can remember.

One day, soon, maybe a courageous soul will step forward and carry this to justice.

Wouldn't you just KNOW it would be a pitch for more social workers. It never occurs to them that these DSS "resident" facilities for kids are little more than internment camps. The kids get starved for love and attention and schooling and moral instruction from their parents or foster parents. Social workers can't satisfy those needs. No wonder some of the little ones lose hope, waste away and die.

Scott is still with us, still on the temporary reprieve. We can do honor to Terri and to her parents and family by continuing her Legacy and keeping the spotlight on others under death threat and sentence.

We have watched many of our son's roommates die just that way, before we broke him free from any of their "help". Little handicapped children like cut flowers just fade and die without the love parents can bring.

In fairness, we have come across fine nurses who lay their hearts on the line for these hapless kids, but the atmosphere gets to the kids anyway. Even watering cut flowers is not enough. Eventually they wilt.

It reminds me of our education/indoctrination system bolstered by liberal logic. We see the system failing to produce quality education. The liberal answer is to throw money at it. When that fails, the liberal answer is to throw even more money at it. The more it fails, the more liberals are convinced it just needs more money.

In Nancy Cruzan's case, it was her own parents who, unlike the Schindlers, fought to kill their daughter

It's instructive to mention this quote about Nancy Cruzan's killing...

"[Nancy Cruzan, three days before her death from starvation] turned and looked at me and stared at me with a panicky look, sweating profusely, and the thought I had was, she was thinking, ‘Oh, here’s a policeman, he’ll help me.’ But we weren’t allowed to do that,"...Doug Seneker (who was "guarding" the dying woman)
I wonder if Nancy's father saw the same look on Nancy's face.

Fascinating enough that the media still covers Mikey's pulp fiction, yet practically ignores the Schindler family book...

Here is a thread that suggests dark roots of media and the death culture.

It painfully reminds me of the policeman who witnessed Terri's panic when they pulled her tubes. Likewise he was assigned to be at her side, to protect her from anyone trying to save her.

Sadly, he developed an immediate case of amnesia immediately thereafter. I wonder how he lives with it.

He must be suffering from IDS, Intention Deficit Syndrome.

As I was about to shut off the car to go into work, I believe I heard that Michael Schaivo is going to be on the John Gambling show on WABC radio New York today. He is going to be doing an interview and discussing his book. The show starts at 10:00 a.m.

You can listen live if you have a real one player.

I pray that people who witnessed such things will someday have enough courage to come forward.
What is a job worth?
Maybe their lives were threatened. Who knows what evil does.

Yes, and God bless them all. It takes a special kind of love to be a nurse. My daughter spent a summer doing entry-level nursing drudgery and it changed her life. She switched her major to special education, even though it meant returning to the university for a fifth year. She also did a tour in the Peace Corps (South America) teaching teachers down there the basics of special ed.

>> ...but the atmosphere gets to the kids anyway. Even watering cut flowers is not enough. Eventually they wilt.

Well said, and unfortunately, only too true. The same sense of being lost, alone, without hope, abandoned, affects people of all ages, and sometimes even the sturdiest bodies wither away like the cut flowers.

I turned off John Gambling permanently last year when he sided against Terri. He had the basic facts wrong and got positively huffy about his mistaken views. I not only avoid him, I switch to a different radio station during his hours and sometimes I don't come back. Message to WABC: Gambling drives this listener to a rival station.

Me too. Policemen. Nurses who were silenced. Perhaps even bookkeepers or clerks who saw hidden medical and financial statements. Testimony from people who were close to Terri in some way, in a position to observe, could be extremely damning to the murderer.

I do not listen to him either. I listen to the morning show on my commute in and Hannity / Levin in the evening.

I think better of Ron Kuby than of Gambling.
