'Do you want me to kiss you again?' She goes, 'Uh-uh. Uh-uh.' That's what I got from her."

That tore me up.

If an agreement cannot be reached, the judge said he will appoint Dr. Jay Wolfson, a professor of health and law at Stetson University, as the guardian.

I may be wrong, but I'll bet that Wolfson is a stealth-euthanasia advocate, and that this judge is posing Terri's parents with a Hobson's choice.

Schiavo's side of course will present names of blatantly pro-euthanasia types, and Terri's side of course cannot accept that, so VOILA, Wolfson will be appointed by planned default.

If this story about Wolfson's alleged assault on a female colleague is true, then he's a hothead and should be disqualified on that ground alone.

... grant an emergency injunction preventing the re-feeding of his wife.

Now there's a real emergency for you.

Is this THE Clinton News Network that is reporting?

Michael Schiavo has declined to comment on whether there is an outstanding life insurance policy on his wife.

His actions speak loud and clear on this point. This scum would have divorced her years ago if there were not a pot of gold at the end of his sick, twisted rainbow.

Affidavit of Carla Iyer, nurse who cared for Terri Schiavo from April 1995 to July 1996
FR page about Terri Schiavo. It includes affidavits by some of the nurses who cared for her, as well as excerpts from the parents' lawsuits on her behalf:
The pages start with nurse Carla Iyer's affidavit. Carla Iyer's license indicates that she is still practicing --- see Reply 53.

Michael Schiavo's sworn testimony that he would spend the rest of his life taking care of Terri --- see Reply 105, item 23 therein.

Nurse Carolyn Johnson's affidavit --- see Reply 78.

Nurse Heidi Law's affidavit --- see Reply 86.

The first time in court, that Michael Schiavo recollects that Terri allegedly had expressed some wish that she would not want to live, was in the year 2000, ten years after her initial medical emergency --- see Reply 124, item 20 therein.

A bone scan ordered by a doctor, and performed on March 5, 1991, just over a year after her initial medical emergency in February 1990, concluded that she suffered from a history of bone trauma --- see Reply 221.

Who would pay-off on a policy like this?

If she can respond like that, I wonder if they dare ask her if her husband tried to strangle her 13 years ago as has been alleged? Of maybe they have?

Bush signed the bill but he also issued an executive order. In order to prevail, Schiavo's minions must get both nullified. Easier said than done.

Getting the law nullified doesn't affect the executive order.

The legislature, from what I have been able to find out, so far, can take action to override an executive order. But the legislature is on board so there is no usuroation of their poewrs at issue. If there were they could petition for a judicial remedy.

That hasn't happened.

If the court tries to intrude into the legitimate powers to the legislative and executive branch, they'll be on pretty thin legal ice.

BTW I came accross this interesting tidbit.

EO 01-262 I hereby declare that a state of emergency exists in the State of Florida... The authority to suspend the effect of any statute or rule governing the conduct of state business, and the further authority to suspend the effect of any order or rule of any governmental entity...

This is part of an executive order issued by Jeb Bush in 2001.

It had no expiration date. Im wondering if he ever rescinded it. If not doesn't it make any appeal by Schiavo, Felos, or the ACLU moot?

After all, the courts are a government entity.

THis is also a good example of the sweeping executive power he has to act when he deems necessary.

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed a large upturn of pro-death creatures bombarding the airwaves with their vile life-demeaning tripe?

I think many of them have the same mentality as those who try and goad a potential suicide to jump off the bridge.

It's disturbing that so many of them live in this country.

Doctors said last week she would have died within two weeks without the feeding tube.

Yeah, as long as the gestapo was there to prevent any oral feedings on Herr Michaels orders.

This is not just another outrage. This is the most blatant case of evil taking off its mask that I have ever witnessed. This is nat a difference of opinion among honorable people. This is a declaration of war upon the weak, the helpless, the disabled, the aged.

The death mongers know that too many people fear suffering and physical limitations more than the fear death and they exploit this fear to kill.

I read that the AARP is thinking about getting involved in this case on Schiavo's side. They are they are totally insane. They're being given a cup of poison which they seem eager to drink.

Michael Schiavo claims Terri did not want to be kept alive artificially. Doctors said last week she would have died within two weeks without the feeding tube.

Anyone would die within two weeks without food and water.

This may be a little OT but it is an example of where we are heading.

Some dialysis units routinely encourage families to stop dialysis of relatives if they encounter some injury or medical problem. At first glance this may actually seem altruistic but wait a minute. Here's what happens.

They don't really stop dialysis. They provide a kind of phoney dialysis where only the fluid is removed not the toxins.

They stiil go through the same procedure only it does nothing.

My question is, if you are willing to put this person through this procedure, why not do the real thing?.The answer is simple. They're too much trouble and it's not difficult to find someone available to fill the empty chair who is less trouble.

No money lost and you eliminate problem patients

What in the world is this Michael Schiavo's motivation if it's not money? He certainly doesn't sound like a guy who's morals are leading him to do the "right thing." If it's not money, then it's his complete hatred toward Terri's family. This greed and hatred are preventing this jerk from divorcing Terri and walking away and leaving her with the family that loves her. I have serious problems with this so called "husband." I think he's sees a pot of gold at the end of this. May he see hell in a whole new way!
