excellent Empire Journal story - worth sending quotes to media.
I find the traditional media reporting regarding the removal of judges is just another way of the liberal media dominating the conversation about Terri Schiavo. As a disabled person she was inhumanely and questionably treated - which can be documented. Why is this not on the forefront of the discussion? The spending of the jury award, the placement in a hospice, the guardianship paperwork negligence... etc.
I also find congressional/executive fingerpointing at judges is a way of deflecting blame for abyssmal work on an issue which obviously moved hundreds of thousands of people to activate without leadership from the mainstream media. People became involved by recognizing the mistreatment - not because the media informed them of anything. The interests of those who activated and Terri Schiavo were poorly represented by their political balancing act. As a result, they served neither their constituency or Terri Schiavo and still suffered heat at the hands of liberal media.
Michael Schiavo et.al deserve a continued spotlight which illuminates the suffering of Terri Schiavo whose only crime was to become a disabled American.
Truly great.
In my mind, I now think of michael schiavo, Mr. cruel beyond measure himself, having to hide. To hide his face, to live confined, to have to live now, and forever, with the label he has earned. Murderer.
After the ten years or more that he denied Terri everything...from the smallest of comforts to the high tech therapies and speech pathologys now available, from denial of swallowing therapy to outings in the sunshine, all of it, NOW...HE HAS TO LIVE THE LIFE HE ASSIGNED TERRI.
Of course, he can eat and drink...another basic he leveled against her....so that he could kill her. And, of course, he does not have to deal with those trained to help the dying day in and day out, nope, he does not have to suffer that horror...but still, mr. murdering moneybags has lost something incredibly important...freedom to move about in the public arena.
People know who he is and what he has done. As they do regarding felos, greer and mary labyak.
Wherever he goes, wherever he hides, he will feel the massive outrage and disgust we feel regarding his heinous and satanic effort to rid himself of the 'bitch', as he was known to refer to Terri.
