Ping you to post 251.
Which reminded me, that when Mike Schiavo was suing the drug company, he claimed he needs the money for Terri's care and rehabilitation, then after he got $1M for her care, then he suddenly remembered that she didn't want to be kept alive.
As I said, I haven't followed all the details, but there is a lot to this case.
There are so many lies and mistruths around here, some of you actually start to believe them.
FairOpinion - after he got $1M for her care, then he suddenly remembered that she didn't want to be kept alive.
Why don't you look at the time line and ACTUALLY read the courts rulings. It's honorable to try and keep Teri alive. But you lose credibility when you lie like a bunch of liberals to make your point. There are so many mistruths in these threads, it's impossible to respond to them all. It's embarrassing. Someone could sell you the Brooklyn Bridge.
Original Court Order: - FEB 2000 [case was filed 5 and one-half years after the $1M was received. And according to the court - By all accounts Mr. Schiavo has been very motivated in pursuing the best medical care for his wife [through 2000].

Those monies [the $1M] were received in Feb 1993. …. On Feb 14, 1993 this amicable relationship between the parties [Schiavo and Schindlers] was severed. ….. The parties have literally not spoken since that date. …… The record before this court discloses that should the Schindlers prevail, their stated hope is that Mr. Schiavo would divorce their daughter , they would be appointed guardians or Terri and become her heirs at law. ……….. neither side is exempt from finger pointing as to possible conflicts of interest in this case.
By all accounts Mr. Schiavo has been very motivated in pursuing the best medical care for his wife.
[cajun scpo] Disagree with the ruling. Make the argument President Bush did. When there is conflict, err on the side of life. My guess is Terri 'supporters' have pushed the many of the 58% in the Jacksonville poll to respond with 'pull the feeding tube' with the nonsense and lies floating around about her husband. And the way some talk about Judge Greer. It's disgusting. Disagree. But you don't know him.

"Are you related to (Josef) Mengele, or just a student?" one man wrote, referring to the ruthless Nazi doctor.
Deputies who fear for his safety escort him to and from work.
That's life these days for Pinellas-Pasco Circuit Judge George W. Greer,
"The really difficult part of this job," Greer said, "is that you can't defend yourself." The world knows so much about Schiavo's life, but little about the 63-year-old Greer. ........... And Greer, vilified by many religious protesters, is a church regular. He also is a conservative Republican in a state whose conservative Republican governor tried to overturn one of Greer's orders.
"George is the religious right," said lawyer David Kurland, a longtime friend.
Friends say Greer's intellect is perfectly formed to withstand the very tempest he now faces. Always calm, not prone to mood swings or flares of temper, unerringly polite, he is not easily ruffled, they say.
But the criticisms sting, friends say. His relationship with his church, for example, has changed.
