Lets see, first Michael Schiavo beats and strangles his wife Terri, leaves her lying unconscious on the floor until her family arrives to get her to the hospital.
Then Michael Schiavo sues the hospital for $20 million because he needs the money to get his poor wife therapy.
Then Michael Schiavo pockets the money, denies his wife the care he said she needed and finally, claims she really wants to die.
Michael Schiavo killed his wife Terri's cat, melted down her wedding ring and then took up with his girlfriend and lives with her today with their children. Does this sound like a loving husband who really cares about his wife's wishes?
And what do we get on the tube every hour on the hour: “persistent vegetative state” as though any of the talking heads who ghoulishly proclaim Terri's life isn't worth that of a convicted serial killer sitting on death row (for 20 years, while due process goes on).
Michael Schiavo's supporters claim he loved his wife Terri enough to take a nursing degree so that he could take care of her. I think he got that nursing degree so he could inject her with insulin and hasten her death and his complete claim to all the money he won in litigation.
Just take a gander at the sworn testimony of an attending nurse: Carla Sauer Iyer (affidavit* below) but let me save you some time and report a quote of Michael Schiavo's after visiting his still living wife: "When is that bitch gonna die?"
Hmmm. Loving husband or man so afraid of not only not getting the money (what's left of the $20 million) but the prospect of facing a jury for his attempted murder, a charge which is possible as long as Terri lives. Sounds like motive to me.
Michael Schiavo says Terri said she never wanted to be kept alive on machines. Okay. Even if that was her statement (which there is absolutely no corroborating testimony and quite the unusual statement coming from a young, newly married woman still in her twenties and full of life); Terri is not being kept alive by machines!
Terri has a feeding tube from which she gets food and water. Had she had the care and therapy she was entitled to, there is every chance today Terri would be divorced from that louse and feeding herself just fine.
About that “loving husband” crapola: what husband do you know evinces his marital fidelity and love by living with another woman, having children with that woman and dumps his wife in a hospice while waiting for her to die? What loving husband kills his sick wife's pet? What loving husband denies his wife's family visitation?
I ask these questions because the media morons are still stuck with their new term: “persistent vegetative state” and are oblivious to the actual facts of this tragic case.

Are you a Christian? Are you a conservative?
I don't see how any of that is relevent to the liquified cerebral cortex of Terri or the fact she will die once the tube is gone or that she will never be anything but irretrievable.
You should listen to Hammesfahr, a professional who was with her for 10 hours, and was just on Hannity. He thinks she will be able to get her speech back with proper therapy and go out to restaurants and eat.
Yes to both
According to a professional (Hammmesfahr) who spent 10 hours with her, this is BS, and she should be able to regain her speech with therapy, and eat at restaurants.
HAMMESFAHR WILL BE ON HANNITY/COLMES TONIGHT!
That is a perfect example of the hysterical hatred exhibited by the Keep 'er Going Brigade.
Most are tired of dealing with lunatics. There are so many important issues facing us today it is unimaginable the amount of time and energy absorbed in this disaster.
Has Congress ever acted so fast over any issue?
Yeah she would be dancing today but for the evil, murderous, money-grubbing Mikey and the Court system which dances to his tune. What will you believe next?
Know what? I think you're right and I was wrong. It's been a while since I studied religion. Divorce is tolerated while remarriage of those divorced are condemned.
And what exactly is wrong with melting a wife's wedding ring? Will Terri ever use it again?
I melted both my late wife and my wedding ring and had a new ring commissioned that were two interlocked rings. While it is true it was the only piece of jewelry I kept (all the rest I gave to her mother) I've never felt what I did was wrong.
Why then are you condemning Michael Schiavo for the same thing?
True enough. I was out of line and I apologize.
No, I've written about ethics, theodicy, philosophy, theology, religion and morality in the past (I had a 622-page book published in 1998). Such items are among my favorite subjects.
I intend to resume writing in the near future after I get some things off my plate.
What an earth are you talking about? I didn't condemn him for it -- in fact, quite the contrary, I said it was a neutral act, neither good nor bad, in one of my posts.
What are you ranting about? Here's one of the few, if only, outside professionals who has spent 10 hours with her, and you rant on about "money-grubbing Mikey".
And lied. And stupidly placed himself 90 miles away... at the location where the bodies washed up. And had concrete mix...
But see, you've got a fatal flaw in your weak argument. Proof is not required. What you need is evidence, including circumstantial evidence, that convinces a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. Which is what happened.
Your doubt is beyond reasonable.
Read the post again ... notice the deprication against Christians? Your about page claims you're a Christian. As to the rest of your assertion, put some ice on it.
I'm glad I wasn't somewhere around that place with concrete mix somewhere in a place I have access to, or else I could have been convicted of murder as well.
Have a good one and all that sort of thing.
